sounds like a top trip

good luck to the GTR's, but i think the EVO's will be unbeatable again

well I know that circuit battle was on last week and I heard from a bloke who was there that he had Mark and Russ's GTR clocked in the mid 1:02s!!! now that is fairly bloody hauling. he wouldn't tell me what they ran in the actual circuit battle, but when they were doing some testing laps 1:02s were happening.

well done guys. things are looking pretty bloody promising now. :D

hey gents

yep can confirm! 4 lap test in the afternoon after the circuit battle mark put out a 1:02.5!! and it had been raining right upto about 1.00pm. so track was far from ideal. there is definately a low 1:02 or high 1:01 in the car setup currently, which we are just wrapped about. the car is unbeliveable at the moment!!

car got packed in the container today , it will be sealed tomorrow and bon voyage!! phew!!

fingers crossed all goes.

well

nice to see my source was on the money mate. :rofl: I think you guys will certainly be quick enough to put in a great showing for us little battlers down under.

can't wait to get over there!

    • 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
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
