yeh that WRX was fugly made 104awkw less than a stock WRX, it won like 8 awards dont know how, but the funniest was when it didnt win King of Auto Salon the owner went skitzo and was abusing the Cabin guys.  

Shan you still wanna start that Black man cult?  

Was great i didnt even have a car but i stole my bros Fangartist shirt and got in the group photo that was put up when we won the award. Was just me, Leewah, nigel, Shaun and Denham.

I loved how the crowd cheered when the wrx didnt win king of autosalon, coz we all thought it would. The Celica desirved it more even tho i dont think it ran on the dyno.

And also i wasent in the Fangartists photo coz i was cleaning the tyre black off my back tyres when my car was on the dyno when the photo was taken.

Carl was the other guy in the photo.

An excellent weekend had by all.

Congrats on the dyno figures to all who competed.

FYI, it wasn't the dyno's fault it kept dying. After speaking to Sam, Nick and Damien (MAS organiser), it was MECC to blame as there were huge power surges going through the Shed which even the power surge thingys downstairs couldn't stop, hence blowing the dyno and the AutoSalon Hopper thingy's $3500 battery charger.

Must say I had a ball with all you there and I wonder whether we should start organising Sept now..... :)

As for the price tag on my car.... I'm not going to post a price on it at the mo. I have a figure in my head and the first person who offers it or more will get the car. When we go dragging next time (in the next month or so), if I break a 9, the price will be going up substantially so if you know someone who wants by pride and joy, for the right price, they can have it.

It was good to see real cars putting up awesome numbers at what appeared at first to be a RICE fest. SAU, Fangers and even MCCR get a huge thumbs up for a collection of good looking, street tough weapons. And the CRX posted a great figure as well, but I'll not mention it cos it's too embarassing to me.

Sux I missed Leewahs AWD run and James flames but I was summonsed to spend some time at home.

Maybe it can, maybe it can't. Power figures don't really mean anything to me. What is important is the timeslip

      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/
