i was reading about it not to long ago, not sure if this applied to the older HKS ones but this one is RoHS compliant and environment friendly.

does that mean its legal? to have this BOV?

the flavour of the year is duck, so you'll hear a lot quacking this year.

i don't see how it can be enviro friendly, still vents the same air to atmosphere, unless they decided to put in some super filter that catches all the crap etc etc

Any BOV that vents atmo is illegal. Period

my goodness, at the levels of modifications the VAST majority of us have done, a/m BOV's are NOT NEEDED!!!

fark! keep the stock one, it's more than up to the task and BETTER.

i don't think you did. It may have just made it louder and sounded cooler so you may have assumed that it makes you faster. get urself on the dyno with the stock plumbback then change to ur atmo, and notice the no differnce in power.

    • 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
