Beyond vintage in leura mall. I know the chef its brilliant anyone up the mountain want to try something different head up there

I'll have to give it a crack; my missus works in Leura.

Silks Brasserie up the top of the main street in Leura was pretty good last time we were there. Beautiful kangaroo fillets with baked pear and seasonal veg.

Wysteria lane cafe behind the nursery in Leura had a damn nice pulled pork burger last week too.

Silks was great! Really nice service; friendly, knowledgeable sommelier; no pretentiousness, and even gave us a contact that had a wine we'd been trying to find locally.

I really need to get back there with the missus soon.

Finally got around to trying some local cuisine, and was pleasantly surprised!!

King Chef in Kings Cross... phenomenal Chinese, typical pricing, ~14.80 for mains, ~10.80 for fried rice.

I've tried most ramen in Sydney and I'm pretty sure I've narrowed the best of the best down to two:

  1. Manpuku Ramen in Kingsford. Main attraction is that they just do it right - which is probably why it's always filled with Japanese people. Handmade noodles, thick flavourful broth and their recipes are different to the usual generic bullshit that seems to be endemic in Asian food in Australia.
  2. Gumshara in Chinatown. It's in a food court off Sussex St (entrance is west off the northenmost arch thingy). Place is hardcore - they let the broth boil in huge steel pots all day until it's basically solid. It's so f**king rich you will be comatose afterwards. I recommend starving yourself all day, then doing leg day at the gym, then ordering the one that comes with a massive spare rib balanced over the bowl.

Hey all,

Thai- It's Time For Thai in Kingsford has always been nice.

I've been to Volcanoes in Parramatta a few times and it's not bad for the steaks.. 6.5-7/10. Better than Crinitis

    • 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/
