Did anybody else get one of these for a 33GTR. Mine doesn't really seem to fit anywhere without having excessive amounts/very kinked line?

You have a photo? The GTST one was kind of like that, had quite a lot of excessive line so you could route it how you wanted.

Had another look today, seems if you run it down the L/H side of the slave then fwd and back to the standard mount it'll work out ok. Might sell it and buy myself a GTST one though, I still want a direct line from the slave to the master, the extra $25 is worth it not to have to mess around bleeding the compensator line :)

Do you have pics of the end fittings that are on the 33gtst one?

Yeah man I have yours sitting here :)

Just a heads up as to why it is taking so long. This is my fault :P

Hel actually don't make a GTT clutch line (I didn't check but it aint on their website and I just assumed they did). So what they did is got them selves a GTT clutch line so they can make one up and add them onto their list of vehicles that they supply for. This is why it is taking so long. However it should only be another week.

I'll keep you updated.

Cheers

Should be next week fingers crossed. I'll give them an e-mail this weekend to see if we are still on schedule.

Also just a heads up, I now have a semi account with Hel due to doing so many kits with them. So I can pretty much get this same price for brake and clutch lines even as a one off sale (don't have to do big group buys anymore). So if any one wants anything just send me a PM.

Cheers

dude, do you wanna send me a list of all the gb's/offers you have going right now... i think i'm buying one ov everything so far... although i missed out on the sump plugs.

but you wanna hook me up with a clutch line for a s1 33 gtst??

God this sucks...

Guys, the clutch lines still aren't ready. They ordered a factory clutch line from Japan quite a while ago and it still hasn't rocked up.

What do you want to do?

1. I can obviously refund the three people for the GTT clutch lines.

2. You could try a GTST clutch line (I don't see what is different about the GTT, any one have a photo of a stock GTT clutch line for comparison?)

3. Or you can keep waiting to see what happens.

I'm sorry guys :)

i'm not in a hurry.. i mean who needs a clutch LOL

Just let us know when they expect an ETA (when they find out) and i'm cool.. I waited almost 3 months for DBA to make more 4000 series slotted for my car :)

Can i get my brake lines sent and then wait for my gtt lines? As im doing a brake rebuild and just held up with thoes?

Yep that's cool. I'll try to send them today.

Ok no worries.

Does any one have a photo of a GTT clutch line? I mean the only reason this is taking so long is they are trying to get their hands on a stock GTT clutch line so they can make the braided ones. The GTST clutch line goes from the master to the slave with two screw in fittings, I really think it will be the same as the GTT, maybe it needs a different sized fitting or something.

I can simply tell them what we need and they can make it, would definetely be a lot quicker.

I enquired about hel braided brake and clutch lines for my gtt. And they said they needed 6 weeks plus my stock lines as an example to get them made. These guys also sell 32 and 33 lines. So if they didn't want to sell me those then I believe they are different from the gtt lines.

    • 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/
