You can still have a car that goes fast and looks good, take deluxe for example a comfortable 230rwkw that gets driven everyday cops never hassle him, but how much do you get annoyed by them with your paint job. I drive my car everyday and cops dont look at me. Im not trying to make ppl feel little, i just think it would have been nice to see some more cars with some half decent power (i know matt and hostile were there), or a better mix of mods rather than just a paint job and some rims, i thought autosalon was spose to be the ultimate in modified cars ie they have everything done, engine, paint, kit, rims.

Im not 30 living at home champ, have lived in my own house for the past 4 years, im 22 and have many other priorities other than cars.

Im over this thread anyway just a joke really.

i dont get hassled by cops, actually i had one come up to me and say he liked it and was good to see a young person who looked after their car (was wierd considering i have now racked up 9 defects in total, was waiting for number 10 that night)

wasnt saying YOU are 30 living at home i was saying i dont want to be that by spending all my money on my car.

also i have a few engine mods, 3'' exhaust, walbro 500hp fuel pump, apexi pod, torsion rods, had a gtr fmic but pipping kept blowing off and just the normal things. my paint work was done because someone tried breaking into my car. i got an opurtunity from mike at doyles since my insurence paied most of it so i wanted to be different.

prices are going up on everything, i dont want to get cought up in my car before my future (plus regency prices have gone up, F**K THAT)

some people like power, some like looks, its simple as that, someone shouldnt be frowned upon because they prefer one or the other, its your car, do with it as you please.

Again top work on the display guys, had a great mix of cars.

hrrrmmmm well there are people who like to go fast and people who like to look good at 60!

well i would call my car a rice mobil! only because it has a body kit but it doesn't have a flashy paint job and i've got black rims on instead of bling! so the car doesn't look too ricey but i like it the way it is because it looks more like a drift car! and the power wise i'm already struggling to control what it has which isn't much from standard but as i grow more confidence in driving the car i will jack the power up!

other than that i got a skyline to go fast but then i love the way my car looks as well!

Harden the F#$k up people, give me shit about my car.............. its called constructive critisism, If you can't take copping shite on a "open forum" then you got no hope in the real world, you may as well be suckin your mums left brest still.

By the way, cant recal pinpointing anyones car in specific, just the whole overall Gaysalon!

Did anyone happen to hear what Matt got for his Mirage (purple 1.8L turbo on the GSR/EVO club display)?? I know he won a few awards but has gone on holidays so i haven't seen him at work

The guy who won Best 300C started some shit up with the boys from work and wanted to go out and "waste them" on the street in his stock 5.7 compared to the 6.1 we entered.

Ha ha paully, now i have the song "why cant we be friends" running through my head! noooooooo!

Did anyone take any shots of my car? I think everyone was just having photos with the reaper! lol!

Yeah I noticed my car's been conveniently skipped too. Not enough rice prehaps :D

Personally I don't give a toss, ricing isn't my style, but I can appreciate the work done to a number of the cars in autosalon too (our group inclusive). When it makes a car totally useless, then I can't understand.

No mate, it simply WASN'T CUSTOM ENOUGH!

Congratulations to all who attended for best club display, that's a credit to you all.

I'm sorry I missed it now.

      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?

      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/
