If ya want people to flog your own bat, at least make it performance related if ur gonna post it in this section...

You'd get a better rise out of the bodykit section :P

:sorcerer:

Is that jealousy I detect.....

..........so when are you getting yours???? :P

Carbon and yellow contrast well, looks good!

Fact its an exact replication of a part that needs NO physically durability, clearly hinting its rice pedigree, hinting on minute weight savings on a 1400kg Skyline...

Wouldn't own it, though like it :P :P

The carbon covers look hot IMO :D I would buy some but I need a rb26 first :thumbsup: Dunno about the yellow bits if they were black it would look dam sexy!

seeing the car will explain why it is yellow :(

i still think the whole yellow theme was better than all black or yellow and carbon mix.

The carbon plug cover has half as many retaining screws an was selected for its superior airflow and ease of removal for plug inspection (about half the time to remove) and why it was orginally fitted but i dont like the asthetics only its functionality....... i may paint it yellow :domokun:

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • 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/
