Ok, to keep forum a bit more alive or more entertain, i'm starting to ask/collect places that you guys go for camping, how far? Whats so good about it? Can you fish there? Lit fire? More to the wild or too comercialise....?

Personally me and my mates always go camping when its' the end of the year time. After a year of hard working, parties ;), clubbing......ect we seek for nature's quiteness, its beauty, relaxation ( well not really when we go hiking like soldier just to see who gets to the top first :) )

Places that i've been to are ofcourse WILSON PROMT ( i found it to be too comercialise ), THE GRAMPIAN ( spelling ), another one which i forgot, its just cross Adel border and it has blue lake...famous for Lobsters......

Anyway, we havn't decide where to go this year yet so i start this thread up to get some ideas of everyone, start typing guys.

OH and pictures too, you know some crazy photos that you took at the camp sites, with your mates.....the girls next door...funny ones, wierd ones.......

personally i love to go camping on the murray.

the goulburn river is also good. Have been up to yea a few times, but didnt catch much fish (probably wrong bait / gear).

I love apollo bay (although i was camping at a caravan park at the time)

Yeah - the Murray kicks ass.

3hrs - warm weather - sandy beaches - no-one around.

I remember going up there with the girlie a few years ago.

We were there for 5-days and didn't see another soul, nor wear a stitch of clothing all week :D

we spent a weekend up in cahuna on the murray earlier this year.

took up a mates ski boat and camped in a caravan park there, did a bit of fishing and skiing, in between the occasional beverage.

not quite real camping, but the river and weather was awesome.

I'll even keep my pants on.

haha :lol:

We go shooting/camping at a friends property in a place called Hay (NSW). About 5 hours from everywhere. Awesome to have a bit of a break from the big smoke.

They have a bit of a saying on the drive there, it doesn't matter if you fall asleep behind the wheel, you'll run out of petrol before you hit anything...

id have 2 say hay is definately a good place to go camping around easter time, not too hot then. the murrimbidgee river usually has good fish at that time of yr

as for the murray its flowing at almost full capacity. lake hume here in albury is actually full for once.

plenty of good places to go along the murray n even upstream of here is good for fishing/camping

If you dont mind a bit of a hike go to lake Tali Karng, it's in the alpine ranges with some really good day hikes around the lake itself... I reckon it's a top destination.clicky>>>Tali Karng google it...many pics n pages... or if you dont mind a few peeps about the wilsons prom>Mt oberon>sealers cove hikes ect r good.. but being only allowed to stay one night per camp site sucks ass.

my fav place is the Alpine National Forest just past Licola, which is a bit up from Sale...

the river has fish, you can light fires with plenty of wood available and also go hiking up the mountains..

it gets VERY cold in winter, you gotto go with snow gear, snow is literally several kms up the road...

best thing is it isnt that commercialised, especially in winter which happens to be my fav time for camping..

hey Khoa

A good place to go camping, I went earlier this year- was to Cape Liptrap which is reallly really far south in a desolate National park near the beach. Its so quiet and peaceful, nice beach, nice campsite which are sectioned off by heavy scrub, so you cant really see anyone else.

Its about a 2 1/2 hour drive, roads are totally empty and theres a 8 km gravel track to get the campsite. Plenty of wildlife when we went, Foxes, rabbits, Wombats, Koalas (hey you wont be alone :)), even maybe black panthers!!!

      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).
