exhaust and boost control. forget the pod (wank factor only) go for a good panel filter.(good enough for mines R34 gtr time attack car)then look at intercooler and ecu.

Thanx StaceRacer.....I'm not too familiar with abbreviations (ECU??) Also, I forgot to mention that it has a 3" Jun-BL pipe.....Sumthin I've noticed is that at high REVS, the car seems to have a sort of miss and a popping noise from the back-end (exhaust).....I end up losing a lot of power.....Can anyone help me with sum suggestions as to what this may be??? PLEEEEAAAASE???

sounds like ignition breakdown, what plugs you using and what gap. p.s. ecu is the engine computer.

      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/
