Heya mate! Nice 34 buddy... my gf's from malaysia too.. borneo island side, but we might stay at her family places in penang and kl when we go back next. Hope to see a few nice lines there bud.

Cool....all the Malaysians coming out of the woodwork here on SAU! :P I'm from Sabah and wife from Ipoh...we're just ordinary ppl that can only afford skylines over here :) But damn, there are definately more imports in West Malaysia now than say 10 yrs ago! Nice 34 :)

im malaysian too

home town is Muar but the roads suck...neva see skylines there ..protons everywhere haha

but the roads leading out of the airport (not sure which one maybe KL) are soo smooth...like 4 lanes wide and no cars at night

lol if your referring to the highway that goes to and from sepang and KLIA, just wait till you sit in a car with reasonably stiff springs. The road looks fine but it goes up, down, up, down kinda like sitting in a small boat with rough weather haha. The last time i was there i almost puked lol, must be the soil or sth. :laugh:

Wow, there are so many of you guys from Malaysia on SAU... :)

No worries for rides Bluechip, so long as she's out of the workshop! Yawn; she's at Blitz Garage in Sunway at the mo.. and she might be there for a while yet, as all stroker kits suddenly went out of stock, Tomei, Jun, HKS, etc.. due to the Tokyo Autosalon... some lucky people must have got brand-new parts for cheap recently in tokyo... and yeah, those long, wide roads can be real bumpy if you've got stiff suspension, especially if you're a passanger in one of the rear seats.. But there are some great windy, uphill/downhill roads as well, and many of which I've yet to discover.. ;)

Hi YB Russ

Nice to see u here talking about Malaysia's Skyline ride. Im waiting for your monster to come out too...then i can hide mine at home then sit in urs. Btw i didn't know so many malaysian on this forum, nice!

HEEEELLLOOOO to everyone who is Malaysian and has been to here before. All the Skyline owner here are a great bunch of guys to be with. Many Cheers and hope this thread is a start for everyone to get together someday.

hehehe...we all usually call our mates YB, Tan Sri or Datuk alway...hoping someday we will be one. We do have a blast to every part of Malaysia every month and yesterday was to Bentong to enjoy some refreshing tasteful ice kacang. Still have not post the pictures yet. Meanwhile i have started a new Thread for those interested to view our trips.

wow this thread has surprised me a little. I didnt know there would be too many skylines in malaysia

Im about to head to KL in a few weeks....

Could anyone tell me some places to buy new/2nd hand parts and accessories for my GTR? names, places, brands?

Slippery : Get to Sunway where most aftermarket accessories shops are located. Or try to get hold of the HyperTune Magazine where all the workshop addresses & contact listed. Give them a ring on what ur looking for especially new parts. As for tuners, they are spread thru out KL & PJ area.

Theres been a White R34 GTR for sale in a yard in Kuching for years thats never sold.Nice low k car for someone tho the costs in M'asia are crazy for that sort of car.

I'm from Kuching and yeap I have seen that car in flesh. It's about 30,000kms but the asking price was about $105,000 AuD. Cars there are much more expensive than in Australia. That car is now sold as far as I know. And in Kuching, in my memory there is only about 3 or 4 on the road. If u wanna try to find a dyno machine better send ur car to KL or maybe Brunei because there is none in Kuching.

    • 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.
