I'm sure you can bring in the car for motorsport use (regardless of age) but that would still require a lot of money and you can't drive it on a daily basis.

All the info and rules and regs you'll need can be found here.

A couple of my mates have already got their exemptions they said they were easy as to get. all you do is write a letter stating why you have to drive the performance car (mum and dads cars are both at work, they are auto and they cant drive manual, and say you cant get to work any other way cos they are at work). My mate said that, added a letter from his boss for good measure saying that he needed to be at work within 20 minutes of being called or his job would be at risk. That was it, sent it in, it was back within a week with his exemption.

Funny thing is, with this exemption in place it wouldnt have stopped the blue 34 GTR crash that started all this in the first place...

How can you say that this is because of that particular accident?

He was not the owner of the car..

exemptions are if you need the car for work or if the car is the only car in the household

i think if you get an exemption for the work reason, you will only be able to drive it during work hours or to/front work.. e.g it'll be dodgy if they caught you happy lapping on george street on a fri/sat night lolz

if you got your licence before july 11th and moved up to your greens, you will still be able to drive your car... its only those that lose their licence that will not be able to

Yeah i know it was his parents car. and you can get an exemption to drive your parents car , you would just have to think of a good reaso. like what if your parents only own a v8 or turbo car? And you cant afford a car of your own at the moment

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      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).
