Steve/Everyone,

We are going to be creating a spreadsheet of all the local tuners, perfomance parts, rice accessories, fabricators etc. in the Perth area so that we all have a list of places we can go to in the future. It will be up soon, but will need input from the rest of you to make it complete.

We hope that it will prove valuable to everyone.

See'ya:burnout:

you can get pretty much any part on the web. it's often much cheaper than buying it fourth hand from who knows where in some expensive shop front.

when i hear some valves i usually say "sounds like hes got a cold". is this what your nick is from sneeza?

  • 5 years later...

just tried searching but no luck so i thought i would dredge up this old thread.

where in perth can i walk in & buy a good steering wheel.

3 spoke sparco suede or similar?

ive checked go gear & revolution racegears sites but they list sfa

i know jpc might have something s/hand but can anyone else suggest anywhere?

Do you really need one that urgently?? If you can't find what you're looking for in Perth you could just order one from an Australian store & get it posted express, would only take a few days.

well yeah if i cant find one in perth i will have to look elsewhere.

i know it might sound silly but i would much prefer to just go somewhere myself & buy one.

hopefully go gear or rev race gears web site is way out of date, but if anyone has actually seen a shop in perth that doesnt sell autotechnia type shit, please let me know.

also im looking for a jap boost gauge, 52mm black face, cant find one of them here either, it shits me. i dont mind paying more buying local but no one seems to stock anything.

Racegear Revolution in Ossy park has Sparco Wheels on the shelf too

OMP from Go Gear is tops as well. If you walk into Go Gear and walk out with just a Steering Wheel, your a more controled man than I am!

LOL I know exactly what you mean!

If you find the Sparco dealer locally or even within Australia let me know as there is a footrest that i want to order.

    • 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
