Sigh, well somone smashed the window on my baby tonight in the work carpark :) but they didnt take anything or go through anything so i assume the alarm scared them off, wouldnt suprise me if it was some pokie fiend looking for coin. Happened in the last 45mins a(around 12:30)of work as i checked on it a few times before then.

Exact same thing happened to me about a month ago.

Broad daylight on a friday afternoon in my work carpark in a very nearby suburb to where yours happened.

Pager alarm went off, and by the time I got downstairs was time enough for them to get back into their stolen (according to police) maroon r32 (I took the rego plate details), which I saw leaving the scene in a very suspisious manner.

I got a new window from import spares (sleaford rd, windsor gardens) for $110, and fitted it myself.

It pays to ring around, as prices varied to double what I ended up paying.

Not a hard job, but also not much skin left on my knuckles afterwards.

Worst part is that there seems no way of easing this spate of import break-ins.

Police say that they have caught the people responsible, and then guess what.....

Sorry to hear that mate, I can empathise, Deluxe and I were recently victims too literally in our own backyard in the same area. We got off with damaged doors.

Damn this stupid shit!!

Don't leave your cars in that area people! i remember seeing a silver/white(it was night time) 32 follow me into my street and almost watch me reverse into my driveway! I just thought it might have been one of you guys coming to say "Bloody G'Day" but when i got out of my car, the 32 took off slowly! I did put it up into the spotted section but with no reply, so now after reading this i thing they either have lines themselves or steal them to get to another one!

So if there is some scetchy suss c#$t in a Skyline checking you out more than what he/she should be, go smash thier heads in and go from there.....lol

      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?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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/
