Anyone else have any recommendations?

Also, I'd start a new thread but it's such a waste of space, but I'm looking to get a S2 R33 Stock air box to replace the pod that was on the car when purchased (starting to hate the noise :P ), so if anyone has one lying around and wants to make a couple of bucks, let me know!

cheers!

Ok, another quick question for us north westers. Where do you guys go for wheel alignments etc. Probably sounds like a dumb question , but i was told when i got mine done the other day by a large tyre selling company (not naming names), that the excessive wear on the inside of my rear tyres could not be prevented by way of an alignment, because of independant rear suspension...is this bullshit or what??

Somerset Discount Tyres have always been good for me. Depends on the problem with the wheel alignment, rear toe is adjustable but if the cars lowered it may have to much camber on the rear, there is only minimal adjustment for this so the tyres will still wear from the inside out.

      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/
