Well gidday. I believe there is a growing Stagea club of some sorts in the UK - some really good cars there. If you're not already in touch one of them may see your post. Need bigger photo of your ride.

Yes I fell victim to the subliminal mind control and sold my s2 in favour of an M35...

I even now find my fingers typing things like "I love my M35" and "drives like new"...

Watch out, they'll be after you next...

You'll start looking at your "old", "tired" (sorry its the mind control, make it stop!) stagea, thinking it might be time to upgrade, then you'll have thoughts jump into your head of newer technology, more power/torque, more comfortable seating, 5 speed auto, tiptronic (for the s1 guys), more backseat legroom, more boot space (incl storage under the boot floor), and all kinds of NEW stagea goodness...

When this starts to happen, its then only a matter of time...

(cue evil laughing) mwahahahaha :laugh:

Thats one of the better looking ones ive seen, black, deeeeep dish 19's and draggging its ass on the floor. Unfortunately that doesnt excuse the fact its far to slow or that theres no chance of owning one looking like that without getting a defect everyday you drive it! Maybe ill change it so it doesnt confuse any of you! :(

+1, except for the 260RS bit...!! who needs traction control and luxury, anyway? And I enjoy the rattles in my old beast: they give the car character! *shakes fist at m35 owners*

Oh, and Hi Les! Where in the UK are you from?? I lived over there for about 4.5 years: loved it!

      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

      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/
