R32 Only Cruise?

Hi All,

Seeing as there have been quite a few of 'this car only' cruises lately (i.e. the GTR only cruise, and the R34 Only Cruise, etc) I have been feeling rather excluded due to me owning an R32.... hey... its not my fault it is the best skyline made to date (with the exception of maybe an R34 GTR N1 or something :geek:) and everyone else is jealous of us R32 drivers and don't want us on your cruises.... so...... i was wondering if any other fellow R32 owners were interested in having an 'R32 Only' cruise, to somewhere like the sunshine coast for a bbq lunch or something?

at this stage, just gauging interest...

Thanks

Jason

You all have Cressida envy, I can tell :(

I have a couple of mates with R32s (they haven't upgraded to an R33 yet :)), I'll let them know this might be on and see what they reckon.

If you are all so keen to meet up and feel left out by the "specific model only" cruises, then participate in the Toowoomba Cruise this Sunday.

Please view this thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=109008

I am more than happy to take applications for Club Membership on Sunday.

Have a read of the FAQ section of this thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=104137 and if you have any other questions, please ask me!

Regards,

Karen - SAu Qld Treasurer

But that cruise is a "members only" cruise.............

Non members can't even access the thread.....how is that any different from a model specific cruise which discriminates against other models?

I would be keen to attend but don't think I should have to pay $50 for the privelidge.

True, non members cannot access the thread, but Mud has posted a thread in the general section to let people know about it.

Club Membership is not only about "Member Only" cruises, there are other benefits to being a member. For example if you buy tyres for your car at Bob Jane's and you are a member, the discount received will be greater than your initial membership fee of $55, so it pays for itself. You don't have to be purchasing tyres for your skyline either...any tyre purchase can receive the discount :)

Woah, bit steep there ellie.

Fellas Fellas, we all own skylines and were having a big sook about these "Specific Model" cruises. I don't know why that cant happen. In the past there has been Skylines Only cruises and maybe some there have felt that it was time for a "Specific Model" cruise. So what if its GTR only, so what if it is R34 Only - why are you left out? No one said that "All other models are not welcome".

Azzura, you have blown the topic to some other level that will invite unwelcome comments from some members. No one said that you were excluded. The only smart thing you did in your Post Topic was to ask for interest in your R32 cruise. Thats all you needed to do, not have a stab at the others for having a "Specific Model" cruise.

I'm sure one day we will have a Skylines cruise again and be family again LOL. But why is there an atmosphere of envy? Have your cruise, I dont think many will mind, geebus.

Well I'll leave it to Azzura to make a cool cruise for you R32 owners =)

Hey the R32 cruise sound like a good idea! I would not feel left out because i don't have that model, i might find a freind that dose have one so I can come along and checkout the R32 model with other pple that have that specific interest.

Our Gtr cruise that we have organzied is just that, for pple with a specfic interest. As one of the main organsiers of the event I would like to appolgise for any hard feelings or offending pple. I would be more than happy to contribute to a all skyline cruise.

      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.

      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/
