I got a message from Tarmac at about 11:00 last night saying to check the new HPI, not telling me what about and to my surprise (Actually I called him up and asked WTF) 5 of the local boys are in it (Sorry Bullet, DriftGTS I don't think you made it)

Wish it was a couple of months earlier to get some interest for the cancelled event, but next one (even though it is in sydney) should be massive. I was even thinking of holding my own event in canberra (ACT Annual ImportKhana*) and getting the HPI guys out. I think we would have a fair few people interested in canberra, And I would have alot more variety of events (Motorkhana, Gymkhana/driftkhana, SkidPan, Go to Whoa etc.) Feed back welcome thumbsup.gif

Check it out!!!!

*=All cars welcome, just thought it was a catchy name

P.S just posted this in events by accident

repost :P

good to see it's out now though... I had a look a little while ago and it was still issue 98

I have it.... I can scan and post it, if i'm allowed on this site...

I made it in twice :D, same with Sam...

we'd prefer not... especially since HPI cover our events like this, not a great idea to be ripping off their mag on the forum :yes:

NO!!!

:O

Slim is sorting it out, he was pretty adament on not having to ship it anywhere... I'll talk to him about it and if he still doesn't want to, I'll send some out...

Thats not really fair... The event was held on our doorstep, about seven of us took part and we are expected to drive all the way to Sydney to get a DVD of it? :P

It cant be that hard to put a bunch of them in the mail so that we can distribute them for ourselves.

C'mon Steve, play nice.

      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/
