I find it difficult to get there on Weekdays, so I went down there on a Saturday at 12:30 as I knew they closed at 1pm.

Found them closed. Big signage said 1pm close on Sat. Opening times on door said 12:30pm close.

Went back the next weekend at 12noon and they were also closed.

I called them a few times this morning, but no answer.

Anyone know if they're now closed on Saturdays? That's 3 weekends in a row it appears that way.

Are there similarly priced companies in the area? I'm not a fan of bigger auto chain's high prices.

I met the guy once that owns the shop, he seems to be the only person that works there so maybe he had to take leave? The guys really nice though I had 3 jugs of oil and he disposed them for me for free. Try calling before hand or during the weekdays to get a hold of him and see what his hours are

Performancelub.com can be cheap but you'd have to pay for shipping....which is normally very reasonable.

I also believe its a one man shop so he may be on leave / sick.

      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/
