Lol i only do old school fords. I work in the service department of a ford dealer and it was comparable to getting stabbed in the eye with a toothpick constantly. Fords are not i repeat not awesome

There a couple blokes on this board that will strongly disagree with that.

did u get an apology?

at least she rang you back and admitted she was wrong

I didnt exactly get an apology would of liked a proper apology but she admitted to making the mistake but i still dont understand why she would not let me drive home even though she was not 100percent sure that i was under the new laws!!

F6, win. G6e turbo, win. Passanger stuff like diesel mondeo, win. Im simply scarred for life by transits, au's, territory's and bogans that think there ford is simply the best car ever made and cant work out why is it breaking all the time?

FG's are decent, (i was actually a Service Advisor at a Ford dealership). The trans is what does it for them, the ZF 6 speed and the 5 speed in the FG are awesome, but anything BF (without the ZF) and earlier would truly struggle.

14.042 @ 116.45 kph

BA 4 Speed with CAI, Exhaust and tune.

Fords aren't slow.

My 5 Speed ute Pulled 170rwkw with minimal work, taken down a skyline or 2

      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/
