lets be honest, a 12sec car is enough of a handful on the street( not to mention 11, 10, 9 sec) without testing your brakes every few seconds. i always try to stay out of first, when i see the lights turn red down the road, back 2 gears and roll. mate of mine ran into a cow on a blind corner on his ducati middle of nowhere. bad outcome, you just never know.

If i wanted to drag at lights i would have bought a fully sicked out commo or falcon mate, But hows about F%@K that!

So you have NEVER done that? I bet your talking shit if you say you havent...

Truth be told most of you guys talk about being soo nice on the roads on the forums but are opposite when your behind the wheel. I know its not all of you but its fair to say most. Why buy a skyline for if your going to drive it like a grandpa? I dont speed, i just like to get the limit quicky, anyhting wrong with that? Even if someone wants to go me at the lights, ill give them a go, but i stop at the speed limit. I too have never gotten a speeding ticket yet *touch wood*

Totally agree with you.

I'm not going to lie.

I wouldn't say I thrash cars for no reason, its either to get up to the limit quickly, or for that occasional bit of fun. I sometimes enjoy a bit of fun at the lights and go past the speed limit etc. I often speed, but nothing ridiculous.

I've had my Ps for 2 years now, 1 speeding fine. So not too bad.

I'm surprised at the number of do-gooders on this site I mean, i can understand not racing, but speeding, everybody speeds, even if its just occasional.

But if you really don't speed/drag, good on you. Credit where credits due.

    • 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.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
