Just incase anyone was wondering, This one month away,

Also We have A few R35 GTR's in attendance, so um if there is enough their we shall have Trophys for them tooo!@

Is it ok to turn up on the day just to "park and display" and spectate only?

Just wondering if anyone knows where the sign in will take place? Is it possible(as some have to travel from Melbourne) to sign in on the morning of the Sunday event, as this is the case with many track days?

Thanks, James

all your answers can be found here - www.skylinenationals.com

Sign in is Friday, if you only want to do the track day, then we may be able to arrange something, but i cannot promise we can do it as its going to be a very busy morning getting the cars thru scrutineering

so we would rather not be signing more people in at the same time....

there's a whole bunch of us going over from Mildura, but no one's taking a Skyline / Silvia, highway is too bumpy!

Born & bred in Mildura (Moved out 20 years ago - Yes, I'm old :D ). The highway is truly shite, always has been.

should see the state of the fxxking main road to the highway here in the Barossa Valley. Pot hole filled goat track that gets worse everytime it rains.

Spend the whole time on it trying not to destroy the Volks on the Skyline, even more fun on my bike. :D

Damn it!!!!

I was going to get the race car ready for this meet but someone broke into my mate's workshop and stole my custom PWR radiator and a catch can.

I have almost every spare except for these thing.....it's going to be even harder to get this car completed.

I think I will be spectating this weekend.

Bloody thief, ruined a good weekend.

weird that they would just pinch those two things, or did the place get cleaned out?

yeah gtrtech, its not too bad past Renmark now, but over the Victorian side especially, parts feel like a rollercoaster with the bowing of the road and then the sections which have become rippled etc from the trucks!

Your V35 hasn't ever made it to Mildura then? I've seen a nice white one near Merbein several times...

Only been back to Mildura once in it, but we were staying out near Red Cliffs. It's a silver sedan.

As I said it always been shit. About the only thing thats changed is that now wider and shit.

Used to go home every 2nd weekend for 12 months on my bike from Adelaide before the missus moved over. Not nice.

Sorry to Bring up an old thread Guys,

BUT we have had some fantastic news come in from HPI magazine.

i just want to say again how fantastic this event was and i am still stoked at what can be achieved when People work together and it gives me lots of Hope for the 2012 Event.

i don't want anyone to read into this post.

The following is a fantastic thing for Every Skyline Enthusiast in Australia and it should be Shared here the Largest Collection of Skyline Enthusiasts in Australia.

The Most Successful Skyline Nationals Ever. and it wasn't possible without you the members and committee's involved in SAU.

    • 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
