Why? It only has a tube running through it for the driveshaft...

I would presume it would be fine. Any reason it wouldn't?

There is the diff housing thingo but does it matter if it is just sitting there?

Does it hit something?

p.s. 2 G U UP2, I thought the car in your avatar was some weirdo VP Commodore... LOL

yeah i love the boxer engine noise........but today i got told that tuned length manifolds actually get rid of the noise....and the boxer rumble is cause by turbulence in the manifolds.....

tuned length manifolds decrease the rumble but they do not totally get rid of it.

ive heard man WRXs with these manifolds and they still sound like WRXs.

when i saw EVLR34 at CRD i could of sworn it had a 13B in it lol

that car has one of the lumpiest idles i have ever heard

anyone remember that green forester a few issues back? I saw that on the road yesterday, the damn things quiet as! I've never heard a modded boxer with such a quiet exhaust.

that letter from the Charade guy is funny LOL... he's definitely trying to pick a fight... I find him perhaps quite dellusional while writing the letter or terribly drunk... unless his charade is not stock and perhaps got a stroked V8 supercharged drag monster in it, I'd say the guy is a tool.

PS: Isn't a Charade is made by Daihatsu? And where does Daihatsu comes from.... ? :wassup:

      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/
