id say Race Pace is worth a look but someone told me they work on more RB26's than anything. Ben (i think its Ben?) knows his shit, so if RE dont work out call him and ask...

No harm in Asking. And if they cant help you ask them if they can recommend someone who can

ive spoken to ben yeah he helped me out but i still want a second opinion he told me to go the

3071 charger and swap my turbo over

then rank rotary who tuned my car said they wouldnt do that they would put a cam in and flow the head

i understand that the rb20 doesnt like cams too much

more opinions cant be bad

oh yes they can...

its the good opinions from people who are highly educated on the subject that make it easier. Im not a mechanic i can tell you what to do unfortunately.

RE is my best solution for you... Hyper Tech in Vermont can give you advice, but they dont work on many cars either nowdays

I would take Bens advice personally. He's never done me wrong in 3 years.

Flowing/cam the head isnt going to do a hell of a lot.

Being (as ive told ya) he did Troys car which is one of the better sorted RB20's on the whole of SAU.

No dubt Ben is good at what he does, just found your comment a little funny.

It wasn't Ben's workshop that kept it off the road :P

Chill out man, not even Ash took it like that :P, did you read the second part of my post.

Just found it funny that Ash stated Ben has been looking after the car for the last 3yrs, when it's been off the road for the last 2yrs.

So take a deep breathe, have a cold drink, sit down and relax :laugh:

    • 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
