We went to some middle eastern type restaurant in Auburn once when we just randomly stumbled across it in Sydney. The food was fabulous but I've never quite felt so uncomfortable and out of place while still being in Australia... Felt like we were in another country and the chick was explaining the food to us as if we were foreigners! Very strange experience!

Try being a chick with platinum blonde hair!! lol.

Actually dumbest thing I ever did in Sydney (at night) was turn off the M4 looking for fuel onto the Cumberland Highway. Cabramatta is no place for a chick alone in a GTR!

LOL... they just mirin'

I hate going to Auburn and Granville. And I'm Lebanese (albeit Christian)! I'd hate to think how out of place an Anglo would feel. Great food though :-)

First time i went to auburn to eat (with my gf) it was awkward AS. Not because i was with the gf, but because being the only asians in a The land of goat sphincter rings restaurant...thankfully most of the shop owners and waiters/waitresses are very very nice, and all you need to do is smile and ask a few questions. and try and look confident.

Driving to auburn/granville, my friends always make the joke that "i fit right in"...so actually i kind of don't feel so out of place

GTRKat - just give us a yell in this thread when you next need to go to auburn i'm sure some of us would gladly form a convoy to see you through sydney hahaha

^as long as your an asian that can do some Zyzz poses you'll be fine :)

I walk around Granville and Auburn and I fit right in hahaha, just say OMG BRO or ULLEH a few times and the locals laugh

^^ Yes "Flames" Restaurant at Bulldogs is high quality. Just a bit exxy and slow when the kitchen is stretched. Good floor staff.

Also at Bulldogs, "Dynasty" Chinese Seafood Restaurant is highly rated in its food. Not exxy. Chinese menu is different from Aussie. Ask for Lotus Chicken off the Chinese menu. Also Walnut Pepper Steak. Also Tofu and Fish Diced.

Also at Bulldogs in the "Bistro" ask for a rack of Ribs on a non crowded night when the meat has been thoroughly marinated.

Great place to go on a rainy night. Direct access to the club from the carpark means you don't get wet.

Yer times have changed, but then again ive felt safer in the streets of Chang Mai by me self then i have in Sydney.

There is just something about Sydney, and the attitude of majority of people - The same reason i refuse to go out to the city Friday and Saturday night

Back on topic

I will be having lunch at Aqua dining in Milsons Point on Friday followed by dinner at Jazz City Diner in Darlinghurst ( lets see if they can BBQ low n slow better then me)

    • 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/
