Hey Guys,

As most of you know the SAU NATS 2012 was an epic event, if you missed it or are unaware it happened please feel free to give yourself an uppercut!

It is that time of year again where preperation must start for the big event again. I will be entering the 34 into all events as i did last year and have a goal to actually finish a lap unlike my dismal 2012 effort :P Ill be towing the car down on the car trailer and will be pushing it to the limits for the lulz...

It is a hell of a roadtrip and should make for some unforgetable fun, i know we already have a small crew travelling in a convoy down so feel free to let us know if you are making the trip too. So far i believe its Myself and Carmen, Matt - Deka, Andrew - Fez25 and possibly some others.

So the details -

Honestly if there is a car event you want to enter, its this one! Its a full on weekend and the dinner is always a good one too! It will be the first road trip i have ever done of this kind and am really looking forward too it, we will be travelling after the Nats back through VIC so if we convoy on the way down, we will be splitting on the way home and going the other direction BUT we will still make the most of it...

I will literally be flying the SAU NSW flag, who else is keen?

Bringing my yellow POS down.

Need to look at a car that's in such terrible form that you'll feel better about your own? Come and take a look at mine.

Edit: Add to the list, My girlfriend Dilara is coming down. And learning to drive manual to help out driving. What a chick.

    • 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/
