Victorian Drift Club - Great Ocean Road Charity Cruise


Recommended Posts

Dear SAU,

The Victorian Drift Club in conjunction with the Victorian Cancer Council is holding a Charity Cruise this weekend from Melbourne to the Great Ocean Road.

The cruise will be held over three days; Friday 22, Saturday 23, Sunday 24.

The charity cruise is to raise funds for the cancer council.

The cruise is being sponsored by:

Meguiars Car Care Products who have kindly donated some of their waterless car wash kits. (RRP89.99~)

Mobil Oils who are providing each driver with one 5L bottle of Mobil 1 engine oil (RRP60~)

Red Bull - we are negotiating a time and place to meet up with the Red Bull team on the return trip. (unconfirmed!)

To join the cruise a donation of $20 per car will be collected at the starting point.

Drivers are required to apply the relative sponsor decals to their car.

Upon doing so, the driver will receive sponsors products.

Victoria Police have been informed of this event and are happy to cooperate with us.

Once we reach Port Campbell, we will be camping.

Cost is $25 dollars per site, and $6 per extra person.

Cabins can be leased at a higher price.

There is a limited number of 25 spots available

Prior registration is essential - Do not arrive at the start line without prior registration

    • 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/
