i just spoke to a mechanic and they told me thats pretty normal as the pfc cant pick up the some sort of sensor in the exhaust and thats why it does that.

That's the catalytic converter overheat warning, it has a pciture of a catalytic converter on the warning light. It stays on until the cat cools down. If that's the one, then no biggy, just ignore it.

:( cheers :ninja:

yea i think thats what it was. all of the engine lights turned on

this also happend to me at high speed

at WSID crossing the line at 170km/h the engine light flashed a few times

also happend before i went down the 1/4 when i was smoking it up, flashed a few times

This sounds like knock. Do you have a hand controller?

I had my cat light occasionally flash just before I would change up gear.

It was a 5yr old ceramic cat that had travelled over 100,000km's. Pulled it off and big chunks dropped out of it, quite surprised it didn't blow out of the exhaust.

    • 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
