Me and a few boys are taking our Skylines tonight out for a quite drive up princess hwy and maybe head out somewhere and find some good spots for few photo shoots.

If anyone else is going to be up on the Hwy tonight or want to come with us your "more then welcome to", PM me to get the Meeting point.

! No one is doing anything stupid , NO burn outs, No driftiess, No raceing ! - Just getting the skylines together purely for show and a quite cruise.

__-- KEEP IT LEGAL--__

( we may try avoid Princes Hwy for obvious reasons ) =)

Thanks.

I don't want to discourage the organisation of social car meets because it keeps the community spirit alive, but:

- Use the events section.

- Thanks for the notice.

- Cops.

- It's "quiet", not "quite". Unless your cruise has a posh slant to it.

- No silly car stuff, yet "PM me to get the meeting point".

- There will be racing, it's Princes Hwy.

- Cops.

- Thread title states "Princess" Highway tonight, first line also says you'll be going for a drive up "Princess" Highway, then you wrap up your post with "we may try to avoid Princes Hwy for obvious reasons"?

- Did I mention cops?

Doesn't matter if your not doing anything and only taking photo's cops will be all over it on prinny. Avoid prinny and head to places for shoots like docklands, port melbourne, etc

Been out there a bit lately and not in the line so been ok but I wouldn't be doing it (especially on a friday night)

Yeh well we have to meet up on princess Hwy as its a half way point for most people.

but avoid it and think well head down beach road towards St kilda for the drive.

Yeh well i said PM not cause of racing or hoons stuff, but because a lot of cops are on this forum and they will just appear at meeting points, just to pick on everyone...

If they really wanted to get hold of you in an organised way like that, they would probably PM you too. Jus' sayin'.

you forgot the cops

Ok i realise you are new to the scene, so i'll open your eyes up a bit.

We have 3, maybe 4 officers who regularly look on the forums in the Vic section.

So "via PM" means nothing as they will just PM you and get the info that way. The "via PM" doesn't work.

So please use the events section, and please follow the guidelines I've mapped out there.

This isn't NS.com, people behave around this place and we have nothing to hide.

If there are police then that's just bad luck.

However deliberately chosing to go somewhere that will have at least 10 HWY patrol cars on it between the hours of 10pm-2am, is probably not the smartest idea.

If you want to organise a photo shoot, then realistically "the HWY" has absolutely nothing to do with it, and a bad choice of venue.

I'd suggest to read the events guidelines, if you want to do a photo shoot then plan it in advance.

Cheers.

can you not please... that's the way I go home from work and we don't need anymore cops on beach rd

:cheers:

    • 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?

    • 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.
