Yeah, the guy in the echo did a right turn infront of us without checking to see if all lanes were clear. He drove into the front right of the BM which then put us onto a collision course with a power pole.

thats very strange....wonder if the kid is still alive or if his parents have killed him......

airbags didnt go off. wernt going fast enough... Insurance company will be doing all the 'cleaning'.. I have no sympathy for anyone his situation. If you are stupid enough to see the stakes are so high just to drive around then when you lose out you can deal with it. I took that same route in the DB9 a few weeks back... Imagine if he hit that.

thats not a pretty sight. yeah that particular section sees alot of accidents. ive had my fair share of close calls there.

the kid probably wanted to play some lan games..lol i dont think he will be playing or walking for a while when his parents have their way with his arse.

surprised the kid didnt do a runner..lol.

insurance is good.

stupid unlicensed drivers....

hitting an E39 is bad enough (come near my M5 and all hell would have broken loose), but it could have been a LOT worse... could have been a P1 lambo or something. His life would have been financially ruined. He'll still be paying off the insurance company for years..

Now come on... what do you have knockoff E60 M5 wheels on the E39 for? :worship: If anything put a set of E39 M5 wheels on.... but make sure they are original :excl:

      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/
