Hey guys (and gals),

What should i put into the car to make it feel italian?

Got idea after seeing Isotta Sterring Wheel (Katiena series)...

Would love to have a tan leather interior also....

Is there a way to mod air vents into those cool alfa romeo ones? Or plaster the dashboard (somehow) to create swoppy surfaces?

What else should i do? How can i do them?

leather.. deh or leather smelling smelly shit.. lol

full retrim :rolleyes:

What are you on about with the "deh or leather smelling smelly shit"? Otherwise i would do retrim if i could learn the skills, otherwise it costs way too much... maybe in 5 years when i have a decent salary. For the meantime, seat covers will have to do... or just leave the seats are get all the other retrims.

Loosen off various screws so bits can fall off while you're driving

LOL.... ok maybe i should rephrase that.... looking italian, but having japanese reliability.

trying to make your car something it isn't is lame......

Wtf. Ummmm... this is a MODDING forum... and people here are into MODDING.... I.e. making the original car into something it wasn't in the first place (for good or bad). What are YOU doing in these forums if you aren't making something your car isn't?

Besides i just want to make the interior feel italian... the exterior will be the usual bodykit... was thinking Zenki 4 dr bodykit... looks manga outside, feels extravagant and passionate inside.

Install a large woman with facial hair in the passenger seat?

Just a thought :D

ROLFMAO :laughing-smiley-014:

that isotta steering wheel looks exactly like mine, and it doesn't look out of place at all. only thing i don't like about it is you can't roll your hand over the edge of the steering wheel when doing a >90 degree turn cause of the shape, but meh

howabout retrimming the whole interior in AC milan colours ? or maybe a Juventus banner hanging from the mirror ? a few italian stickers on the windscreen may also help, Scuderia veloce or something like that..

Or he could put an Italia soccer scarf on the parcel shelf and/or on the dash. So replace my early comment about the fluffy dice to the soccer ball off the mirror.

Don't forget a picture of the 'Azzurri' on the rear window...

Maybe some dried sausage or a leg of proscutio in the glovebox...

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • 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?

    • 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/
