anyone ELSE recommend any products to use to make my car shimmer?

:)

I recommend FW1 racing formula. Does your windows, rims, body work and engine bay, and anything else you may want to wax... :) Seriously good stuff i tell you.

Hey guys, here's an updated list for you for our position at the show.

Due to smaller expected turn outs for clubs they have moved us to a bigger position (42) We are also known as Skylines Australia, not the Japan/Australian Extras. See attached, hope you're all looking forward to it! :) Oh have also made a banner as I said I would, not sure where it will go/hang could drape it over my bonnet lol!

Perhaps get a couple of long pieces of timber/dowel/steel pipe tied into each end and jam them into the ground near the front of our area?

Also, relating to the 'Marshalling', is there events cars are entered into for prizes or something, or is this just the term given to directing and parking your car?

Terminal and I will be at the show at 8am, to see if we can stake down our area so to speak. As long as everyone else turns up before 9am, should be fine. Probably a good idea to cruise from the museum to the show. Take some pics too :)

I think it's safe to assume Leech will not be attended due to his previous comment of being in NZ.

Only me and one other person with a R31 will turn up. Apparently, it's too early in the morning to go for a drive.

Sorry guys, you'll have to count my gtr out(the reason is outlined below) :)

I was really looking forward to this, I will however come along and take some photos though.

I have been right royally screwed over by an un-named fuel injector supplier!

Basically(or not so basic),

I ordered some new injectors. I thought they were the wrong ones when I got them, so I rang the supplier and quoted the part number they had sent and quoted the part number i thought they should have sent

The problem was that the right part number was on the invoice but the wrong part was sent(I did not have the invoice), but the really infuriating thing was that I had actually quoted the part they had sent but instead of listening to me in the first instance, the supplier got defensive straight away and they black and blue(quite rudely too) that they were right.

So...... I went ahead and cut the plugs and fittings(as per instructions from supplier, I rang about that too) off the old ones, dropped the new injectors in and took the car to the workshop(Tuesday) to get tuned.

Got a call from the workshop and they agreed with me that they thought that the injectors were wrong too. After bouncing many calls between the workshop and the supplier, the supplier finally admitted that they had sent the wrong injectors. They wanted me to send back the first lot before sending out the right ones, but after giving some CC details they sent out the right ones which the good lads at the workshop fitted up for me today, I thought all was good til I found out that the supplier hadn't sent out the fittings or plugs for the new proper injectors!!!

So......my baby is still sitting at the workshop with new injectors(the right ones) bolted in but with no way of running the car til the supplier sends the fittings.

Oh, and to add insult to injury they were going to try and charge me for the new fittings@!@!

BTW a huge thanks goes out to the boys at Trojan, they have shown great patience this week.

End of rant....

Cheers from a not so happy Brad.

      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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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/
