"lol i do rundles as well!!"

Vange and Bixby.... Dont you guys attract unwanted attention from teenage boys and jealous cops that are hungry to jack up their quota so that they get promoted from all the revenue they are creating! (aswell as the wanted attention from the young girls... I would have thought you would have been defected by now!!!!!

I have only done a rundle street cruise once and that was with my BRO driving --> too afraid about being defected-- even though there are no illegal mods :P .. GOttta admit every one looks once they hear the induction noise..... My car sounds like a frigging fighter jet.. sometimes attracts a bit of unwanted attention....

Well, you are right REdgtst. The hungry 'blue boys' patrolling down at Rundles are obviously looking for some action. I was once followed by them from the back from Rundle till Pulteney St. At traffic light, the cops just stopped on the my right and stared at my cars ("Trying their best to look some excuse to stop me I guess"). But fortunate enough, there was not much of a tint on my windows and the height was legal as well. (Lol) Too bad... They just had to forget about me and look for another one! :D

Spotted a white R33(S2) on Grote St. at about 2.30pm today. The mufler looks pretty small to me but I'm pretty sure it will definitely crack the hell out when the pedal is floored. :laugh: Usually the smaller the hole of the mulfler, the higher pitch the sound would be. Nice car overall.

One fri night coppers were at lights too the right of me (near walkerville) and i turned left at any time and idled up to 60. They then waited for their lights to go green and fanged up behind me. I saw them coming in rear view and turned off and then made a few quick turns but they ended up following me and then put on thier sirens.. I then went on for a bit and pulled into a side street (instead of blocking off the road). I then went to jump out (didnt want them (their were two of them on bikes) to see boost controller, PFC commander and other non legal mods :) ) and they told me to get back in the car (and warned me that if i didnt obey they would slap a defect on- hence i was like yes sir three bags full sir what ever you want!!!! ( i think they wanted to stick their head in and sniff for weed). THey then went over my car and said that my spoiler was illegal and who sold it to me. I replied that i t came on the car when i bought it and hence i was told it would have to be removed otherwise next time they saw me that i would be defected!!!!!!! (im positive my spoiler isnt illegal!!!!). THey then said that they know my car and that they will be keeping an eye on me!!! Why i dont know because i dont do anything suss around town where social cohesion can be affected!!!!

Anyway alls well that ends well and i havnt seen those cops around since!!!!!! :)

      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/
