Yeah read a bit earlier and I said I can kill 2 birds with one stone as I know one of the owners of the workshop and he's asked me a couple of times to call in, so while fellow SAUers are there I can call in and say hi to them and Matt at the same time making it more of a social call then a dyno comp for me, though if you really want to push the point another good reson I wasn't really interested was I HATE CABIN AND THERE CRAP DYNO COMPS AND CAR SHOWS AND REFUSE TO SUPPORT THEM SINCE THEY POO POOD SPORTS COMPACT I aslo hate 1/2 the cars at there shows and what they represent ;) but if it does it for you I'm happy for you

well remember I'm old with 3 kids so loud noises and bright lights hurt my eyes :)

nerve touched..........just sh1t stirrin' ya mate....dont take it too hard.

agree the shows are a wank, but the opportunity for Stace to take the car down and compete in front of her home crowed(sp) was great, and ill always support anything she does.....im sure if your wife was there competing you would do the same.

im old with child too, bright lights and loud sh1t music annoy me also!

was only there for the dyno comp....the rest of the weekend the car was there on its own.

[cabin] rethink your position on racing........not everyone gets off on glorified carparks

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).

      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.

      R32 Gtst - Track Car

      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/
