Spotted this very nice Blue example in Wynn Vale this arvo (no registration plates, so I assume uncomplied). Very similar to mine, except blue, not black.

Enjoy

p.s. does anyone know where I might be able to track down a front lip/add-on like in the pic? Not fussed whether it is oem or a copy. OR does anyone know a good fibreglasser that would be able to make a mould and a copy?

I want that Car!

I have an uncle living in blakeview who is very good at fibreglassing and carbon fibre. He has done some work fixing up stuff for 4 brothers and others. As long as he can get a mould of it, i cant see it being too hard for him. He has got a r33 gtr of his own that he has made his own custom front bar with undertray, and other little bits.

He's extremly good at what he does, dont get me wrong. But as he only does it in the garage on a small scale, he's not real keen on doing stuff for the norm cars. But imports he doesnt mind as he finds it more interesting to work on, and he gets something out of it too. He really enjoys imports.

if anyone would like his number, please pm me.

I'd be very keen to see a price and picture of a front and/or read undertray.

I have some pics of his front bar with undertray, but they are unpainted and not quite finished and dont really resemble the finished product, and doesnt really do it justice. But at least you can get some sort of idea.

abviously the gtr is wider than the gts, so modification will be required to make the front bar the right size.

My uncle is not on the internet, so he is going to send me some pics of the front bar at a finished stage, with indicators and stuff. So it may take a few days to appear on here.

I will also put up pics of something he has made to fill in the gap on the boot, when the standard rear wing has been removed. Also this is in a unfinished stage. these pics were taken last december.

Also added pics of carbon fibre eyelids, and a mould for a 180sx type x bar.

    • 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).
