Stagea forums IMO are some of the best around. Its because no one here is a little 14 year old trying to be cool.

We all are mature people who know to keep shut unless we actually know something about what needs to be said.

thats hit the nail on the head i reckon alex, i think u and me are the 2 youngest here by heaps aint we? good to see a forum without bitching and people dribbling shit about their mates uncles cats dogs 2nd aunties 8 second stagea with stock turbo. :)

keep it up guys :P

Thats me. 28+

Think Ghostrider and I are the oldest.

We know stuff that happened before most of you were born.

Not necessarily all good though.

Started the engine but gear shifter wouldnt move. With engine running, if i pressed the brake pedal a clicking noise could be heard in the consol at the bottom of the shifter, also turning the key on and off produced the same sound. Presumably this is a solenoid of sorts that locks/unlocks the shift lever.ie a steal stopper.

Eventually I got it the shifter lock to open by fiddling (swearing a lot) and stop starting the engine.

It is now doing it sometimes.

Any ideas, or similar problem experienced?

Ive just had another look.

With engine running the shifter button only goes half in. When i depress foot brakebutton goes allway in and operates of until you turn offf. Then process starts again.

I know this topic is dead and dusted, however i am having problems with the shift lock in my stagea sticking wether im on even ground or sloping ground it sticks badly and pushing the brake in doesnt work until the 4 or so time, i have driven other people stageas and theres have never done it like mine does...

What i want to know is the shift lock adjustable?? If so how??

Thanks

    • 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?

    • 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/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
