IIRC, as it was quite some time ago.. when I had stock brakes I had to run a 3mm spacer or the 34GTT rims bound up on the calipers. Problem was alleviated when going to 33gtst brakes as the caliper sat away from the little dippy bit inbetween each of the 34GTT spokes.. good luck!

Not 100% sure, but I believe so yes. Fairly sure they look like this:

But I've seen so many types of calipers and never paid that much attention to his lol, not sure if I have them mistaken. They are stock as far as he knows.

Reminds me of sick brake/wheel fitment I had on the Ceffy when it had R32 brakes but still 4 stud at the front with S13 stockies.

THIS ACTUALLY DID CLEAR THE BRAKES.

Don't ask me how, even with my own 2 eyes I couldn't see any actual gap but the wheel did spin.

It scraped a few times until I did up all the wheel nuts properly, then just cleared.....I should've kept it like that and racked up some more points for being a mad c**t.

    • 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/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
