Hey peoples...

Been a while since i've created a post... but today i just about died of shock...

Driving home from work round midday in bundoora near the La trobe Uni

I'm sitting at the lights waiting to turn then all of a sudden i see an r35 GTR (silver)

I can honestly say i made a dick of myself from excitement... Completely shocked...

The guy driving it had the biggest smile on his face... how could u not... haha

Anyways my question... how many new GTR's are in melbourne... And where can i buy

one.. Do i have to order it through a Nissan dealership or will they be arriving soon?

Anyways... thats my rant...

Hope u all have a fantastic Christmas.

Simon..

I have seen 2 red ones. 1 is a private import and one is from a Nissan dealer which was posted in the R35 GTR Thread of this forum.

1 Black R35 GTR at GTA on Spencer St. in the city.

pvt import. GTA Spencer St has a gungrey one - I went pass everyday to work. unsure if they import that one under scheme that allows compliance or not (some are imported under motorsport scheme only - means for CAMS level 3 holders for Tassie Targa etc).

There is already compliance holder in QLD, unsure about in VIC. just go to RAWS website and have a dig around.

    • 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/
