I sms'd them on monday, and was told my seats & covers won't be ready til at least next week.

Kinda frustrating & an inconvienence as l've only had one seat in the car for 7wks now, this will be 8. I'd be a lot happier to wait if l still had seats in the car. :rofl: They better be worth the wait.

I was told that mine were sent out on monday. When I get it, i'll check the date that it was actually sent on.

I'm not very happy about the idea of paying them $30 postage and having to wait this long. If you check up prices of couriers, even a weekend same day courier can be had for $30.

I most certainly did not pay $30 for them to just get registered post worth like $15.

are u in the GB??

whats your name coz i dont recall your user name being in the list...

if you are in GB, can i ask who told u yours were sent monday?

secondly we saved hundreds of dollars with the GB, and u are being tight about 15 dollars postage fee??

for fark sake!!

why even get into this group buy if you were not happy with the postage??????

there is always one in every bunch isnt there...seriously dude get over it!!!

let me remind you

I might as well stir up the pot a bit. The seat covers have been at UAT for a while. Give em a ring up and just go there. muhahahha

by the way i still dont think you are in the GB so why are u getting wrestless?? what are u waiting for?

and

IMO, it's not worth it.

The idea of these seat covers being that the price is moderately less than a proper leather retrim.

If you've gone for the premium package - 630 + 3-400 to install it, then that's 1k. I know it's still less than a leather retrim, but at the end of the day, they'll never be as good as a leather retrim for 2 main reasons:

1. they're plastic.

2. leather retrims sew pockets into the back of the leather, and they refit the metal rods that are in the stock seat covers. They use hog rings all over the seats and velcro such that it actually hugs the contours of the seats.

have you noticed in the pics that these covers are just limp?

Manwhore, i suppose you might be able to glue it, but it'll mean that the covers can never be changed otherwise the foam will be damaged.

I have friends involved in retrimming and they suggested i just do it myself as the outcome will be the same for those reasons mentioned above.

if you have "friends" involved in retrimming why do u have to rely on this GB to buy "plastic" shitty covers that look "just limp" to retrim your precious car? surely you can get your mates to do a show winning job with real leather and stuff for a few beers????

or do u just talk shit for a living...

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).

      How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.

      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/
