Not looking for any troll responses I'd like to keep this serious and informational as there is nothing I can find on the topic. We all know the rb20 and rb25 turbos are ceramic my car came equiped with a Greddy Ultimate that has the abilitly for 2 stepping by retarding the IGN. Now obviosuly this isn't good for any turbo but I'm wondering since the stock turbos are ceramic will they just blow up the first time you try to use it?

Connect 4!

Re question of what for on a stock turbo: I imagine OP doesnt want to make it spool harder on take off, its more as a launch control function. I used this on my old Evo 4 and it was amazingly good.

GTS-4 - does not need launch control. Just needs 8000rpm and a firm grip on the wheel

And supporting mods of course.... Don't want OP destroying the clutch or drive-train due to our advice ;)

LOL, Yes I was wanting it for launch control at like 3-4 psi on my GTS-4 for when I go to the drag. On the fronts I have 205/50/16s currently. What would you guys reccomend for launching on a gts4 4500 rpm slipping or dropping the clutch?

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • 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/
