I just used 2 female insulated terminals. They push on nice and tight and do the job just right. You can pick up some terminals at a repco or auto sparkys for a bout $3 or less.

Here's my install.

You'll need a crimper. I also just cut the bottom of the bracket off so the pump fits easier. I stripped the wire back and soldered the wire before I crimped onto them too.

You need some more hose to reach the pump as well.

I used the extra hose and cut it up and used it as mounts to prevent excess noise. And just tightened up on them and the pump with 25mm-50mm hose clamps.

out of curiosity, whats the walbro good for at 13.8 volts in terms of rwkw?

cats car had no issues making over 300rwkw with it. The car now runs a tomei pump but the only reason i swapped the walbro out was because it was nearly 2 years old... i have no doubt it would have continued on no dramas

Is that the exact same one that SLIDE sell's, or a different version?

Apparently there is 2 different versions, ones a high flow (HF) pump someone mentioned?

      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

      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/
