It doesnt have an equaliser ! You need to equalise your brakes . IE; check that both shoes are even in wear and operation . .

Bias Valve should be mounted on the firewall right behind the inlet manifold or if the valve just looks like a 4 way splitter then the valve will be built into the brake master cyl.
Im guessing its a VTNZ wof fail on their fail rolling drum brake tester!

if you have unbalanced rear brakes ,the brake prop valve won't help,i have a lot of vehicles from local testing station.brake roller.with unbalanced rear readings.is it drum or disc rear brakes, sorry you have put drum pads,, !

if you have replaced rear shoes,cylinders etc and machined drums.try swapping drums side for side.readjust and recheck.Other thing to watch is leading and trailing brake shoes and springs in same place

Try warming the brakes up before you go in, engage the hand brake one km before.

when l go down a hard metal road the 2 rear brakes lock up at the same time.but on thatmachineof theres it takes it past that point of lock up and one goes higher than the other! if l stuck air in the good side of the cylinder it would make it closer but seems silly to do.

Change the wheel cylinders and ensure that both sets of shoes are adjusted correctly . They should be adjusted up until they just grab the drum and then back off a fraction . The pic you show is the master cylinder , leave well alone . Do warm your brakes before a test . If you fail one VTNZ then go to another if you have one in your town .

I'm no Nissan expert (left the industry before the Jap invasion) but it looks lke a residual line pressure valve to me. The trick with drum brake is to have good linings radiused to fit the drums, wheel cyls in good condition and the correct assembly and ajustment procedure.
