just wondering how many people in the forums are from this lovely town?

Well there's me in town..... infrequently. There's heaps of nice clean Skylines around I reckon, saw 2 very tidy examples today, silver job & a white one down the main drag about 2-ish, I've been outta town for a while but there were 4 Stags (counting mine) around that I knew of last time I was in town....a 260RS out in Kambodia as well. Dunno if they are all still around or all on the forum or active but. Problem is work rosters. nightshift, 8 & 6, month on week off..fifo, dido..satphone comms in the boonies.....whatever. One of these days I would like to take a run with the local Nissan boys to the Broad Arrow Tavern or Widgiemootha Roadhouse or just somewhere, for a burger (excuse for run/pics/say gidday)

Work rosters rule,

Gotta grab it while you can,

Cheers GW :miner: out.

My mum worked in a medical clinic at Kalgoorlie last year.

I've being there about 3 times, driving there is a pain in the ass especially when you are driving around in a white Camry... the most boring-est car in the world.

Not to mention on the way there, from the 1/2 way point (from Merredin onwards), the over-taking lanes disappears all together & overtaking 3 stage road trains is annoying as hell in a underpowered Camry.

The only import I've seen while I was there was a Soarer, otherwise all I see is a bunch of bogans driving around in their Chevy badged bogandores.

    • 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
