So I found a leak on my rail the other week, dodgey o-ring..no worries welded a bung in it problem solved..

fit it all back up and prime..

Now with ignition still on ,fuel pressure hits 3bar , then ever so slowly drops down to about 1-1.5 bar then sits there..

I haven't started it up yet and I can't find another leak anywhere. but is it right that it drops still, or should it be holding at 3 bar?

Just want to make sure before I bolt all my pipes back up..

From memory my stock pump would prime up to the same and if you left it sitting, it would slowly drop to around about 1.5 almost 2bar as well.

I don't remember the definite numbers but it did drop significantly, with my nismo pump it primes up high and very slowly drops slightly not much though.

Not if there is no leaks... How long does it hold 20psi though?

Wind the reg up and test it at 70psi, then drop it back to where it was. Make sure its running the same pressure though, or don't boost it before the retune.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
