Thanks to all who came, hope you all enjoyed. Hopefully the pace was all up to everyones standards and the maps were up to scratch. :(

The pace was perfect....didn't read the map found it easier to follow everyone else but the map was very helpful when i found out where we were up to.

Good stuff, usually do that route a LOT faster so I wasn't sure if the pace was too slow/fast. Glad to see you enjoyed yourself :)

Oh and it was definitely an awesome sight looking back and seeing 20ish odd Skylines following in procession :(

Great cruise, well done SAUSA. Next time I will have my car - because Im about to go out to the shed and put it back together!

Thanks to JMW for lending me his passenger seat for the cruise, and thanks to Aberax for lending me parts to get my car going again :(

looks like it was an awesome morning, would love to have been there, but had the mrs bday last night so wasnt really in the state to drive this morning... oh and the fact i did my ankle at footy yesterday makes driving a little hard.... will deff come to the next one

Bah - i really need to get over my social phobia (i dont deal with new people too well..) and get out to meet all you SAU:SA people some time ...

Yes ... yes you should :(

Good, well set up cruise today, well done to all that organised it. Also thanks to Abe for sparing his passenger seat for me. :(

No problem, hopefully you didnt get too scared :D, and hopefully you didn't give me your cold. Shame you couldn't stay for breakfast, was fantastic.

No problem Dion, they were just sitting around doing nothing.

For some strange reason, I noticed after the cruise the rear of my car is making a weird rubbing noise, I think the rear brake discs are warped or rubbing on something, as it got worse as I drove home :S...but at least my brake squeal is somewhat gone.

Route was good, would like to do it again, but with more sleep before hand.

    • 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
