Hi,

Been a member, stealing ideas and advice silently from the shadows for a few months. This is my 1st post so be gentle and use some lube. I've simply been recording my progress with my 33 4 door doing some motorsports with plans for more, much more. intending to run Time Attack QLD series and such as well as a few hill climbs and other miscellaneous events and the odd skid here and there to fill in the gaps. I've been uploading the vids of what I have been doing to YouTube so figured I'd share the link here, seems the people most likely to be interested. Saves taking heaps of pics and writing it all down, just put together a vid and let the google corporation store it in the public domain for me. I'll share a couple of links, will depend on what you interested in, if anything as to what you might want to click on. Remember, I'm learning as I go, my 1st skyline and track car, so mistakes are made, but left in as part of my learning progress, and you might not make the same mistake if you see me do it.

1st Episode, a bit cringe worthy but it's where it starts, this and the next 2 sorta tell you what I have to work with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qez549XL2s

28th Episode, A few skids at QLD raceway, if that's your thing.

29th Episode is the 2015 Jap Nats.

I have no idea if those links will work as I had to type them in manually? I assume it's a bot prevention thing?

Anyway, figured I'd share, if you like it well great, if you don't well good for you too.

Well I must say I'm overwhelmed by all the comments lol. Regardless... Here is the latest event vid.


https:/www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWBGL5ug6F4


Plenty of build vids to go with the event vids, I just find the events are a bit more watch worthy as the car is being driven, as opposed to worked on. But if the build stuff is your thing please do like, subscribe and other stuff... I think share is the other thing you're supposed to ask for on youtube lol.

Anyone able to tell me why I can't make this link work.... would be helpful.

Great to see someone getting so much use out of their car, good on you! Hopefully my car doesn't know how to use YouTube, it might get a bit jelly....

 

Thanks man, I think you car might think itself lucky it doesn't get the abuse too

      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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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/
