It was nice to finally spend a weekend not doing house reno's! It was also great to catch up with some familiar faces and meet some new ones. My apologies if I didn't manage to match the face, name, and forum name, or I have forgotten to mention you below.

Thanks to the all that put in the time and effort to organise the SAU entry, well done. I can see SAU becoming a regular EH entrant and in time possibly taking out a club award.

Well done to Ryan and his better half, and Luke, for the trophy winning efforts, and Chad, Damo, and Anthony for your efforts on the dyno. Chad, you might not have reached the lofty heights set by Alex’s VLT (near enough to 580rwkw on Sunday) by there is nothing wrong with over 300 on a very warm day! That Meguiar’s detailer stuff works well mate, look at how glossy your beast is in Troy’s photo.

Dion, good to meet you, and all the best with the repairs mate.

Pete, thanks for the input over the weekend, I owe you big time mate! You will please to know that not only did Jodi win a bunch of trophies for her outstanding XU1 but she then proceeded to drive the car home from the show – she also gave me thumbs up whilst cruising alongside for the first part of the journey.

Ruby, keep the change mate, just add it to the club coffers.

Dave, Damo is on the money, basic details are in my sig'.

Thanks for all the kind comments guys, much appreciated.

you're welcome buddy boy......thanks for hanging around most of the weekend and answering alot of the public's questions.....you were a much deserved winner IMHO

No problem at all. Thanks mate.

Matt, at one stage did you have "dyno: is a great diagnoctic tool" in your sig? :P or am i thinking of someone else.

I did indeed mate. I've changed my sig (last year from memory) but I still view the dyno as another tool for working on and improving one's car... it just happens to double as a bit of fun :)

Chad, 300.6 is still over 300 :)

I only just made it to 300

I wouldnt be worried with that

your power curve is extremely linear and only tapers out on the top end - excellent power vs response... perfect ratio for your trackwork and daily, would make an excellent street car (i'm pretty much aiming for that, but maybe to tweak it a little more to the left at the expense of top end power)

what did you get from the dyno dynamics set?

-D

lol chad, you seem dissappointed to have ONLY 300 at the treads?

fkn wish i had the chance to drive a 300kw 4wd animal.....

trust6 looks like a weapon! that engine bay omg... noice

366 rwkw? :P whats traction? haha

good work people, nice line up.

    • 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/  
    • 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
