Trams are free to GP ticket holders
Oops, free travel only from city to circuit. If you're coming from anywhere else, then you require a normal MetCard ticket.

(As the person at Yarra Trams pointed out, I would already have a ticket, because I've caught the train into the city in the first place.)

Shell> I visited melb about 3 weeks ago. If your arriving at Tulamarene airport (not Jetstar Avalon) you can buy a one way ticket with Skybus which departs to the city frequently. Costs $13 pp. If there's 3 of you, you might catch a taxi which will cost around $40-45. Also Skybus have a drop off and pickup service for free but i think it applies if ur staying in the city area. I have heard good things about Fitzroy St St Kilda but didnt have the chance to go there as I only had a chance to visit city, Chapel st and Brunswick st.

I found Melb to have an abundance of good restaurants and cafes and esp shopping as well as very friendly ppl. 2 Thumbs up!

Shell:

I will be able to pick you up from airport. How many people?

Mobile: 0417 037 520

I'll wait at the BP servo next to the airport carpark at 8.30pm. Call me when you are out the front of the terminal (at the taxi ranks/bus stops) and I'll swing past.

:) :) :(

i was happy after the first laps of qualifying on Sat... but it all went downhill after that! damn Ferraris... hehe

Paul... I went to France Soir! very nice... couldn't face the snails lol, but was a great meal and a really nice night. Very cheeky waiter though ;)

You guys are so lucky...Melbourne is so nice!!!

we had our dumbass tourist moment when we bought a Metcard thingy for the train (a day one) and then went and bought another one for the tram cos we didn't realise you could use the same one :P

was planning on going to the factory outlets on monday but they were all closed cos of the public holiday...so we went to the motor show instead (we didn't even know it was on!)

and then we found ourselves at Spencer St station, and came across Sherriffs Mini Cars where i bought myself a purple R34 GTR... it's gorgeous!!! i could have spent hours in that shop hehe ;)

      How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.

      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/
