Sort of drop in..not that hard to fit though

Get yourself 2 x 3" hose clamps to secure the pump to the GTt cradle, cut the inlet tube to the correct length (so it doesn't kink) and secure the sock to the base of the cradle with 2 x 1" hose clamps, at the exact same angle and position as the GTt sock.

If you do it right it's very secure, and the pickup is in the same factory position so you don't get any suprises when the fuel level drops.

He explains egine power figures

I was more interested in RW figures

Could someone work this out for me?

I tried working it out and came up with a figure of approx. 366RWKS

But this doesn't seem possible

That's why I said in a perfect world.

350-375rwkw is not out of the question but they aren't all 100% at the age they are becoming. You won't know until you do a flow test at 12 V and work out exactly how much that particular pump flows. Even then it's not exactly going to be 100% accurate. The pump could be f**ked and you might run out of fuel at 250rwkw, who knows? The only way to tell for sure is to do a flow test under pressure once you have it. 2nd hand parts = hit and miss

    • 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/  
    • 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
