I just wanted to share my excitement and to say I am another one who has left the import scene and gone to euro car. After having nothing but trouble over recent months with supra and my old cheap ford. I have turned a negative into a positive and Bought 2 new cars for myself and soon to be wife.

1.Jaguar X-Type (my mrs) Wedding gift

2. Hyundai GETZ (for me)

Very exciting times with wedding in 3 weeks, my missus becoming a paramedic and now new cars. It's both our first new cars which will be good as have had an extroadanary bad run with our cars over the years.

Happy motoring to all and hope everyone has a fun and safe xmas and new years.

Graeme

LOL... a british Jag + a korean Hyundai doesn't make you euro enough, your polarity probably end up somewhere in the middle... ie. russian Lada

or Chinese Cherry / Great Wall car?

anyway... I'm sure she'll be happy with the car and I heard Hyundai has ramped up on their build quality compared to the Excel of 8 years ago.

happy holidays and congrats with the wedding.

      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?

      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/
