Heh was just about to start a thread about this tonight!

Yeppers I'm in, and Donnan is too I believe, can't wait!

Remember guys this is not auto salon so don't be put off if your car isn't perfect. We've got some great big name cars coming, and it's all undercover so we don't have to worry what the weather's doing. It will be huge!!!

^^^ You girls are so good at self-deprecation; and then at the 11th hour, blast everyone else away with extra-precautions and super-presentations lol

What have you got in your boot? A check list for...

i) waterless spray-on wash in case you go thru a puddle on the way up?

ii) microfibre cloths; red for ON; blue for OFF?

iii) zymol wheel spray?

iv) so easy tyre shine?

v) meguiars rubber seal conditioner?

vi) armour-all for engine bay?

vii) autoglym yaddayadda?

That white beast will be gleaming! lol

LOL :D

Mine's still clean in the garage!!! She's looking very pretty after some love and attention after a wedding and Marques in the Park.

So all I'll have to do is drive up there. Haha might be a few microfibres in the boot and a spray bottle for spot cleaning.... :D

Lets just hope I don't get a big stone chip off my front bar on the way up because that was very poo!

:blink:

So anyone else from teh ACT keen?!?! Already over 100 entries and growing... still a week to go but we need you to put your entries in by early next week so the money clears etc. We *may* take entries on the day but space is limited so if it fills up before then you will miss out!

If anyone wants to pass their entries straight to me, that's fine too. And you are more than welcome to stay where I'm staying (only $105 a night) and cruise to the show the next morning with me also :D

MEDIA RELEASE - December 1, 2009

GODZILLA GEARS UP FOR A MONSTER 20TH BIRTHDAY PARTY

One of Australian motorsport's most infamous cars will provide the icing on the cake at an event celebrating the 20th anniversary of the iconic R32 Skyline.

The Skylines Australia NSW club is gearing up to showcase two decades of the iconic Japanese marque with a Show and Shine car show at the Fairfield Showground, on Sunday December 13.

Some of the most important Nissans in Australian motorsport history will be on display, including the original Godzilla - the rarely shown Bathurst winning Gibson Motorsport Skyline GTR.

Alongside Godzilla will be a race sized grid of current and past Skyline and Nissan race cars including:

= Group A and C touring cars

= Tarmac Rally cars including Targa Tasmania competitors

= Drift Australia cars

= Production Race Cars; and

= Wild Sports Sedans.

Pristine examples of all Skyline models including the brand new R35 GTR will also be buffed up and on show, alongside award-winning custom Show Cars.

While the aim of the day is to showcase the cars, it's also intended to also show that the majority of Skyline owners enjoy their cars safely and responsibly.

This will be Skylines Australia NSW club's fourth Show and Shine with this year's celebration expected to be the biggest yet, attracting over 150 show cars and 3,000 spectators.

Oooh did you want to PM me the details then Shell? I think I'd rather stay overnight than drive up early and at least my car will stay clean and safe.

Ditto, PM to me too plz!

      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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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/
