G'day guys!


Been getting a lot of inquiries about when we are going up so we think it's time!

 

Date:  Sunday 11th of September

 

Location:  3 - 13 Stockyard Place, West Gosford    

 

Time:  11:00 am 

 

Map: https://www.google.com.au/maps/place/Gosford+Classic+Car+Museum/@-33.423556,151.3156468,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x6b0d3557cc6cd9a7:0x50dd654ccd8c6dff!8m2!3d-33.4235605!4d151.3178355?hl=en

 

*** Anyone interested there will also be a cruise up Old Pac to the Museum. Departure time 9:30 am from Thornleigh McDonald's *** 

 

For those of you not already drooling over all the pictures popping up of the cars on display there are hundreds of cars of numerous makes and models ranging from the Ferrari F40 to Ford XY GT-HO to Porsche 959! 

 

This is definitely a family friendly event so please bring along the kids. 

 

Price is normally $20.00 for adult entry but depending on numbers can acquire a group discount. 

 

There is food and drinks available at (outside) the Museum with some awesome burgers!

 

For further information head over to their website at http://gosfordclassiccarmuseum.com.au/

 

Now lets show them what we have as part of SAU NSW!

 

 

This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit.

 

One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general.

When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to:

• Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly.
• Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should.
• Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly.

• Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.

 

Cheers guys and hope to see you there!

Sorry Guys, my choices today are finish my racing sim rig or come outside and play.  Well, the rig is getting the vote. Plus will give me some time to work on my car too.

Have fun!

Umair, these were taken a couple of weeks before...
I hope these are acceptable.

The original Ferrari official colour (believe it or not) was yellow.

 

Those neon lights in the above pic, were supplied by Herman Urriola on contract to the Museum's owner. Some might remember him as the CEO of Envy Imports at Brookvale, where SAU.NSW held a Dyno Day back in 2007.

In a conversation with Herman recently, he says that he is still owed quite a bit of money for his work. :(

I forget whether it's the rods or the cones that became saturated with "red" in this place.

Why oh why did I want an MGB (as my first car) when I was 20?

    • 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
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
