if it were 89 would it still be importable with the flared guards etc??

I don't see why not ;)

Troy, I meant stock external appearance. :)

Now where are those stock wheels...

And you will definitely get a ride when you're back home. But you have to bring me back a set of N1 headlights.

Charlie, haven't you already got a set of wheels, I remember seeing down at Steve's warehouse...course there is nothing wrong with getting another set SSR GT2 or Type C are the shitz at the moment over here.

that would be a standard bumper cut up with mesh behind it... tasefully done I must say.

Funky, this is actually a Veilside R3 kit and the rear bumper does look like that.

Troy, those are the wheels I was referring to! I can't seem to get any of my parts over here, so might just have them shipped over via air mail. Either that or fit them in a container.

I think the ad for the widebody GTR says something about the cost being 2 mil yen for the kit (?). I have a fascination with widebodies :)

(I'm talking about cars here. :P)

widebody...if they not about cars I don't want to know about it :P

yeah the GT2 are f**king nice, if you've spoken to Justin (Baggins) lately. He is also after some wheels, but can't decide after I showed him the GT2.

GT2 also weight no more than the Type C which you also know are the lightest wheels around...slightly lighter than both the TE37 and Buddy Club QFs. Also they being SSF-semi solid forging they can take the abuse of track work much better, they don't crack as easily as the TE37 when you hit a gutter.

    • 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.
