Yessssssss! So happy this got found. Was genuinely considering cruising around my area (and yours @mercyseat ) to see if we could spot it.

Awesome work. Thanks everyone who assisted and kept their eyes out for this.

Yeah Steve and I woulda taken to the streets if it didn't turn up.

Damaged rear bumper. Looks like they rolled it then pushed it with another car.
Ignition damaged.
Not sure about the driveline still being investigated / finger printed me thinks by cops.

Main thing is its found, thanks to all the car loving peeps in Melbourne sharing the post.[emoji1303][emoji469][emoji469]

That's exactly what they did with my car but the morons couldn't get it started. The other car they pushed it with would have been stolen too, 100%.

Yes had security. They broke in through the boot and disabled it someway through there. Then must of pushed it then roll started it. Not 100% sure.

 

I had my LP2 coupe there too at Downshift that day.

 

Quite a good Skyline turnout[emoji846]

    • 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.
