oh!.. Hi! Where did you go off to? On the pachwy?

Hey, Yes just after i passed you guys, i got onto the old pac. I try and stay away from freeway, it puts me to sleep!

I did recognise you as to who u are on here because of your plates, but we were on the road, so hi anyway!

I took it very easy on the way back though, as i knew that some bad things had happened earlier, i saw fresh flowers on one corner, and im assuming that is where the poor rider went off.

:) sorry silver..

CB came in handy.. next time we goto get everyone together before we leave and say "we are going up the freeway, turn off at berowra and we'll regroup there"..

was a bit hectic doing some good old.. should we go this way.. should we go that.. than having to cut through traffic.. always fun.. with mintie coming up the rear :)

thats how mintie likes it

Supa lack of braking techonique, des'ka!!!!!!!! ;-)

But yeah, it was boiling hot. I kept turning the air con off during the Old Pac, and then turning it back on when we reached the little towns and stuff. Made me kind of glad that I don't have turbos....

LOL!!

"I'll show you my superior dorifto technique next time!"

:lol:

If there were Emmy awards for SAU Cruise videos, Menthu Rae and I would get one... just reviewing the video we took up to Avoca and back today, it is THE BEST!!!! Over 1 hour of quality and not-so-quality footage :) Comes complete with trance soundtrack and thundering Skyline engine sounds.

However, I'm not too sure about posting it up on the internet - some very incriminating stuff there :)

That is one reason why I was "circling" the pack - had to get some footage since there was such a diverse turnout :)

Links, it's still on MiniDV at the moment, will need to look into making it digital later... my cable is already spewing over 200mb worth of photos onto Imagestation.com :)

Dinner now - back later

    • 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).
