If you want to see more stageas and talk to people first hand, come see us all at the meeting next sunday.

Thats probably the best thing to do really. We can all tell about buying them etc, and one guy only just bought his so great to talk to.

I've just been thru it all (except i'm already in QLD)

Insurance is about $1k from Just Cars and Famous. If your over 25 you may get it cheaper from shannons, but theres not that many insurance compnies who cover imports. There is a thread on here somewhere about stagea/skyline insurance so thatsanother good place to look.

To get a car from interstate, you'd best talk to the dealer(if you go thru one & I'd Highly recommend motovation imports, prices were a bit higher, but quality of the cars were amazing) cause they ship cars interstate daily. When i was buying mine, they were getting another one in & ready to ship for a fellow who lived down in Melbourne. You can get the car inspected for you by a 3rd party(someone living up here or NRMA/RACQ) or you could come up to our lovely state for a bit of a holiday, & search for a car while your here & drive it back down, either way it's probably going to cost you the same if you take into account all the freight fees etc.

yeah i just picked up my stagea and with all mods listed, ecu, boost control, suspension, stero, guages, turbo timer, body kit and so on i got 1k with rating 1 protection from Just Cars. But don't know what things are like with insurance in VIC. Go to www.justcarinsurance.com.au and get an online quote.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
