Cheers, for the sounds advice. Hopefully the 2-way diff, stiff suspension etc doesn't result in me going over the awning. It's at Ararat Victoria along 'one teee hill road'. If you search youtube for 'Ararat Hillclimb', there are some pretty impressive videos. Apparently the course record goes to the driver of a four wheel drive 270z with a nascar v8 crate motor...

ill be there

do it every year good 2 days

viagra is the name of that 270 you talk of and is very very fast up there

i live there so if anyone needs anything or safe place to put cars trailer, have good shead and tools happy to lend out if ya need to fix somthing or anything,

few pics from last years one on here of my times ect

have whole r32 for parts to if anyone need somthing that weekend

That's very nice of you, thanks for the offer. That 32 looks and sounds impressive and that's a massive time gain up the hill. I'm don't intend on breaking any records, I would be happy just to go and have some fun and bring the car home in one piece.

I was talking to Chris Harwood recently, you may know him, he mentioned that the Friday night scrutiny was worth a look and that its a good time to meet and greet. Is there much of a turn out on the Friday night?

Yeah just about everyone one gets down there on the firday + saves time and you get your bag with a sticker and stuff in it, chris might have told yo, we get more runs if there's time in the day so, day runs smooth and most cars having been looked over the night before means we might get 5 or 6 runs not just the 4 for the day

I'm from Horsham, so only an hours drive. Yeah, that was me. I gather that you were in the sliver gtt with the black lenso D1r's? It looked the goods. I posted in the Vic 'spotted' thread, but that isn't somewhere that everyone frequents. We'll have to organise a cruise when the weather permits.

Talk about a thread high-jack,,,get a room you 2 bums. :-)

Cheryl's now ready just gotta wash and polish everything and pack. I have a commodore and a 180sx in my class,,,bit worried about the 180,,,thing is quick.

Cheers

Neil.

    • 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
