Why because u drive a liberty?

possibly..

but more so that people still go and hang out with defectable cars at locations and do shit to attract attention, then get done.

then complain.

I can't wait till the first aus car crushing.. :D

Just for you qld people...

I worked at QPS for 11 months as an IT contractor.

Believe me when I tell you this.

They have accounts on every single online car forum you could think of.

They organise these little "stings" as you guys organise your cruise/meetups.

They will leave the charity cruise things be, but anything like "blah blah carpark meet and cruise to blah blah", will more then likely end up with internal paperwork being started to organise the required cars/man power/equipment required to defect you for your headlights that aren't alligned.

I just think it's funny that people still don't learn.

but yes, it's because I drive a liberty :blink: Poof!

I have the bottom end and the head/inlet setup at the shop will be building them up over the next few months.

Atm i want to get my 25 gearbox conversion done so i can hit the track with the 20 a couple of times before pulling it out and slotting in the 2630.

Will take me till the end of the year i think to get the new motor finished. I have the head/inlet and the 30 bottom end at the workshop will build those after the gbox conversion is done and i have had some track time.

Also looking to get a mod plate for my 2 seater conversion, where is a good place for that?

Oh and im puttin my stock bov back on in the next few hours that should make u happy ;)

haha you bet correct, looking at making a box for it like iceberg but i might just hold off and do one for the 2630. Something like the one in this pic

im not sure if having an unshielded pod is a defect so hopefully ill be right (maybe i should call transport)

As I understand it they don't issue you a defect because your car is defective, they issue it because they think your car might be defective. The trip over the pits is to confirm or deny their suspicions, at your cost and inconvenience unfortunately but that's the way it is.

    • 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/
