Since getting my new button clutch I have found that a blip of the throttle on down shifting is MUCH nicer on the clutch. If I don't give the throttle a blip and I'm trying not to compression lockup (i.e. slip it a little) I can feel the clutch skip and it generally doesn't feel nice at all. I kinda of feel like a fool driving around giving it a rev in between each downshift but it is certainly much kinder to the clutch :)

heel toe is good if used in the right manner, little old grannys in honda jazzes wouldnt exactly be going fast enough to warrant heel toeing.

you never know.....

what about the granny that i saw (white hair and all) in a maserati convertible.......... the wind in her white hair and all......she probably does a lot of heel-toe around town when shes trying to open a can of whoop-ass on the other drivers :domokun:

    • Physically, you'd expect it to turn the motor 11/8ths faster than a standard one, but I'm not sure of specifics
    • Ironically the GTT was quite reliable in the 7 years of ownership. From memory I've only had to replace a radiator and coilpacks out of inconvenience 
    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
