Well what a great day that was.

I would like to thank everyone who met up at homebush and also the guys we all met down there for making me feel welcome.

Also a shout goes out to the DAT boys for feeding us when we got to the gong.

Definatly cant wait till the next one

NOTE:

on the way home went to the lighthouse, and it was luck ywe didnt go there it was paccckkkkkeeed. Lots of hoties tho haha

ha ha

good to see everyone enjoyed themselves, although i left early and didn't get a chance to cruise around the gong, i still had a great day.

it was good to go up to sydney for once, but it was a bit hard to keep everyone together once we started to get into the traffic.

keep up the good work

mark

go the 32

I feel sorry for Cameron (xzotik1) - This was his first SAU meet after I spotted his car last week and I put a note on it. Defected for BOV in Wollongong - Sorry mate - that was the first SAU event I've been to where people got defected.....Hope it does't put you off coming again.

2Rismo - I still got your Aussie Flag !!! Nex time dude.

Fantastic turn up at Homebush - pity we all got seperated on the way - Next time we need to take an inventry of cars, and have a couple of catchup poiunt as Carlo suggested.

What about that Monster Truck on the way back !!

Cheers all !

A good day.

Shame I didn't around to say hi to everyone.

I loooooooooove Macquire Pass. It's like a massive hill climb race that goes for about 20 minutes. Great fun.

The shock of the day was when we just got to that car park everyone was at at Port Kembla and you guys went to pizza hut. We hung around for 10 minutes to have a rest, then we looked over at the yobbos that just pulled up next to us and the bloke in the back seat had his arms strapped up trying to find a vein. Then we watch as he pulled his needle out and continued to shoot right next to us !!!!!

We left straight after that........

Nice place :spank::)

it was a great turn out at homebush, approxiametely 40 cars at least, i guess next time as a few of us mentioned we need better organisation, but it was great day while it lasted.

c u guys at the next meeting ay.

What an awesome day!

I dunno how datnet felt about us raiding there BBQ, but thanks lads! How mad were those motorised bicycles!

I'm glad I purchased a radio before the cruise, I'd of been stuffed otherwise. Just made the quick switch from the middle lane into the Shell so that people who forgot why we were meeting at Homebush could get petrol. :P Oh, and so the dog could have a drink. :lol:

I can't get over Jay seeing that guy shooting up! SCARY stuff! :(

I'm so with Jay on Maquarie's pass! Very much worth doing, it's the madest drive!

Shell missed out though because she decided she was WAY too cool for us Canberrans :bahaha:

Thanks to all who orgainised everything, thanks to 2Rismo for showing us the way (and the local knowledge of speed camera sites :) ), Jay for doing his best to get me out of the Gong and back to Canberra (hey I love U-Turns too :P ) and of course Datnet for their BBQ!

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
