VERY nice!!!

What is performance like on stock stagea, and whats the going rate?

Also, as if you don't do the R34 GTR style nose conversion! Looks wild.

Maybe I should get a stagea, planning on having kids in a couple years... :)

Cool, nice buy MrBenson - is this car staying in NSW?

I'm in the process of organising a cruise for early April for the Sydney and Newcastle/Hunter region owners and enthusiasts - will you be keen to join us?

Very nice Ride. Looks identical to mine, colour, body kit, wheels etc. - except you have the leather and woodgrain option, so its an RS4V.

I am sure that you will enjoy it as much as I am.

Better get used to people doing double-takes as they go past! :D

yep i'm the roger from melbourne who came to the meet at bells park.

the wife and i flew up to sydney on friday inspected the car and the papers etc,

test drove the car all this took most of the day,

and we were very impressed with it and we needed a car to get back to melbourne so we bought it !

paid $24000.00 with 31000klm's on it.

so it had a good test on the way home, on sunday after visiting relatives.

anyway the worst things about it are minor stone chips and scratches (well it's a used vehicle)

fuel economy.... but thats a smaal price to pay for the enjoyment of the drive.

and japanese tv and navigation (is that possible to get it working here.

the tv screen has a touch screen system in it to play cd's and operat the climate control of wich both work fine.

we have now transfered it to melbourne rego, put the baby seat in,

and we just have to get insurance.

thanks to all that gave me advice and info on the stagea. :laugh:

      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/
