Now this may sound strange, but if the rain can please hold off for just a couple of days so I can WASH the car (looks like filth at the moment) and then I will have some good pics to put up

perhaps also putting a list of mods with your pics

Thanks mmm and blitz. It's basically a stocker with a nice exhaust, Trust baffled sump, Blitz cooler, some guages, and the usual minor mods. You can see the damage it received after/during shipping and the tacho and ECU plus afm's were also stolen. Damn thieves.

hahaha yeah, the 'usual minor' mods, like a twin external wastegate (judging by the two screamers) 2835R turbo kit?

I wish. Nah, it's all show. I think the Japanese owner just liked the sound of screamers. ;)

I heard the engine kick over today for the first time (over the phone). :(

New pump goes in tomorrow and its start time. :headspin:

I think you're onto something here... :)

Now where are all the other newly imported cars' pics?

OMG!!! get out. you can't tell the difference between GTST and GTR???? please relinquish ownership of you GTR immediately. Also I believe the rims are Volk TE37s you should know this, as you have the same ones.

      How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.

      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/
