April Monthly Meet - Garage Cafe Wed 17Th


Recommended Posts

Are they always held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month? I think I'll be back in Melbourne for a little while around then (next month) and wouldn't mind coming along.

Simon & Kaz- Pre drinks?

How many people rocked up this time?? Hope there was a better turnout for the sake of new members getting scared off :O

We had a full long table full of people, approx 20 members? Not too bad for a freezing cold night.

It definitely isn't summer anymore :(

Where were you, Mike?

I am mad... This morning on the way to work I was trying to drive up a hill in the wet... Nothing but wheel spin in 1st and 2nd... (needs moar tyre) and 3rd didn't have the guts to accelerate up the hill! I actually had cars going around me.

It breaks my heart when I hear the diffuser scrape.....maybe someone should bring wooden planks??? I'm not volunteering myself :D )

    • 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
