Hi J, let me know if you need a set, I can pull the really crappy ones out of the R32 GTST and send them down.

PS, my pants are on, well most of the time anyway.

Cool - thanks for that. I'll see how it goes in the next week or two, cause I'll have to pull them appart to see if I can make them up, and once the factory ones are pulled apart you can't get them back together the same again :rolleyes:

Hi J, we have a 4 week period where this car is doing nothing, then the racing season starts. So there is a window there if you can't find anthing locally. Let me know.

Jay i've got a handbrake boot sitting next to me off a wrecked 32. Pay for the postage and it's yours so all these nice 32 drivers can have pretty interiors :rolleyes:. Too bad you don't have them for s13's.

Neil - I'll take it !! I'll send you a PM with my address details :D

SydneyKid - Thanks for the offer, something falls through I'll drop you a PM.

Thanks

Well Finally i put these on after having em about 7 months ;)

they look absolutely awesome thanks Jay.

gearstick boot is an absolute peice of cake

for all you noobs out there who wouldnt know how to sew something together to save your life like me, i can vouch for the glue/staple option

i did both, glued then stapled. the only problem is you can slightly see the staples which i'm not too bothered by for now, then next weekend i'm going to pull it out again and sew up the sides where you can see the staples and then pull the staples out. this would be a lot easier than trying to sew from scratch as its already in the right postition so that might be an idea for you all.

bump for the master of leather :D

    • 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
