Not quite as visually spectacular nor the stopping power of many of the examples thus far, but they are mine.

356mm 8 piston and 356mm 4 piston

18x9 and 18x10

Cheers Prank, cheers guys [emoji106]

All Japan Day in Adelaide on Sunday, noticed a clean and tidy semi-sleeper Sigma wagon, with genuine Ferrari 612 Scaglietti 4 piston fronts still sporting the Ferrari logo!

No way! That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen!

What was under the bonnet? The Astron 2.6 was a strong engine, a lot of people got big power out of them.

I had the exact same reaction when a mate pointed it out! It is indeed equipped with an Astron 2.6, complete with an aftermarket turbo set-up producing 140kW at the wheels on 7psi.

I had one of the last Sigmas to roll of the production line before Mitsubishi switched to the Magna. Mine was a 1986 model with the Astron 2.6, big block of four cylinders.

    • 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/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
