Hey all

Well the 2005 snow season is fast approaching, with Tassie turning white and the snow making its way up here over the weekend :headspin:

Im pretty damn keen for the snow, either skiing or boarding, and was wondering if there would be any interest in going up for a couple of days by anyone here?

Plan maybe something like head up mid week, ski/board, drink copious amounts of alcohol and party on till early hours of the morning (snow bunnies included).

If anyone is even mildly interested, raise your hand and we can work something out.

I'll be interested, but work will restrict me to the weekend. i want to test out the 'snow' button on my stagea this year, that's what these beasts were desgined for.

But a snow trip has been on my cards for a while now, i haven't been the last few years due to uni being a bitch and the snow being expensive.

I'll be interested, but work will restrict me to the weekend.

Do the Australian thing... pull a sickie :D

Thats cool, thats the kinda feedback I was after... weekend is definately not out of the question :rofl:

I know a place in Jindabyne that I can get pretty good rates at, sleeps up to 4 in a room, tv/shower/heater etc, also has common games room, bar, and about a 5 minute walk to the main two areas of jindabyne (nuggets crossing and the other one) where the bars/clubs are.

Ill leave it open for a show of interest for now, then in a week or so maybe start organising something if people are interested :rofl:

Sounds awsome....

But just hasnt happened...

:):D:D:D

HELL YES !!!! :):(:D

Thats looking much better :D Then no-one has to worry about driving up as well.

Sounds good, Ill look into a few other companies and see whats on offer. After individually pricing things, it looks like a tour is the way to go to keep costs down.

So far we have interest from:

Nik (Amaru)

Andrew (SkyGTRline)

Andrew (Terminal)

Shaun (race_snooze)

Anthony (oscar32)

Leigh (leech_)

Cassi (skyline_babe5)

And now some pictures to motivate people...

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
