The bigges newspaper in the world. NEW YORK TIMES. I have a personal website(click below) and have been trying to get more exposure for our type of cars. So I went into an area that no import should. I contacted the TIMES and submitted photos and took a phone interview and a week later I was in the paper and on the internet. HERES THE BEST PART. YOU HAVE TO BE VOTED IN. THEY VOTED A 350Z TO BE LISTED ALONG SIDE. "AMERICAS CLASSICS AND COLLECTIBLES" Its a small step but we need to get more exposure. You can click on my site, and then at the bottom click on NEW YORK TIMES, but I will also add the Times addy here to.http://collectiblecars.nytimes.com/View_Li...ngID=COL7101211post-43903-1193632818_thumb.jpg

mmmm I read this "post" sometime ago but as I sit here bored I decided its time to revist .

Drew your level of enthusiasm freaks me out. Its just not a normal level of enthusism for Australian people, that dont wear flowing robes or believe aliens are a devine being that send messages in celebrity magazines...i wish i could muster that level of enthusiasm - but without the robes

For the record the NY Times is not the "biggest newspaper in the world" unless they distribute an extra large novelty size edition..you know, like bigger than a garage door type a thing. If we're talking distribution the NYT is 37th in the world for distribution, suprisingly for me Japan seems to sport the largest individual circulation for a daily

On the upside you did make a donation, so good onya mate...Finally in your honour here is a picture of a newspaper rack that is now used as a propane powered bbq...complete with Naws

    • 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
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
