G'day Guys,

My names Shannon (Prefer Shaz, or Shazza) from the Northern Beaches in Sydney. I've been on here for a fair amount of time now I think, but don't post all that often. I've been getting a bit more involved recently, after the purchase of my R34 GTT, and looking to get more active in NSW events.

I've previously owned an R33 S2 with HMA533 number plates, and numerous other non Datsun branded vehicles. (GZ20 Soarer/1JZ, Liberty Wagon w/ STi conversion, KE70 drifter, etcetc)

I work as a Bank Manager at one of the big 4 banks, and also own my own business, which I run on the weekends and after hours.

My current car is relatively stock, with 70,000 genuine KMs. Has a cat back exhaust, a bucket seat, Blitz ZZR coilovers and a some Work CR Kais. Plans are for a high flow turbo, a thick SMIC with a Cryo2 setup / Nismo air shroud, EBC, and dump pipe. Ideally, somewhere around the 350rwhp mark would be nice, but more importantly, it MUST be reliable, and super responsive, as this is my daily, and I have absolutely no need for a massive, child ingesting turbo.

Hope to see some of you blokes at some meets in the near future. Doesn't seem to be many people from over on the Beaches on here so far. Oh, and excuse the dirtiness of the car in the below pics. It was a spur of the moment thing, and my car was filthy.

      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/
