A cruise has been organised in each state, I have decided to participate and organise the Canberra event. I would encourage all members of car clubs to get there club involved in what should be a great day.:)

The plan is to drive to a nice location for a BBQ and meet with some of Canberra's car enthusiasts. A map will be provided closer to the date. Pass the word on this is for a very worthy cause so the more the merrier!

Thanks

I'm keen! c'mon,SAU'ers!Pull ya finger out! None of this CBF stuff:we've all got homes to go to-not like south east Asia at the mo'...feelin' guilty yet?! Let's do this! Even just show up,donate $10+,then call it a day-it's a worthwhile cause!

SAU's community is gotta be one of the best around. Its a bloody good cause, if you just want to show up donate and go thats fine otherwise if we can get enough people this might be one of the biggest cruises Canberra has seen!

MIVEC - Well done champ. Thanks.

perhaps it would be worthwhile to let the local news networks know? e.g WIN, im sure they'd be keen to get out and get some footage, and its good for the scene if we can be on T.V behaving well and raising money for charity!

by that time ur car might be sold andrew then what will u come in?? but the tv crew sounds like a good idea i wouldnt mind seeing my line and me on tv. would tape it and watch it over and over again lol :wassup:

Thats not a bad idea, the only problem may be the attaction of the Police. Then again if the media show them defecting cars while on a charity cruise, I dont think it would sit well. Once I can confirm numbers I will give them a call.

lol i thought you said "getting a haircut" and i couldnt help but think it may be more financially intelligent to get one here haha.

if i were running it i would also inform the police of the plan etc, tell them that its a charity cruise to raise money for the Indonesion disaster and they will be more than happy to let us go without any trouble, and also let them know that its an effort to show import owners in the ACT are responsible and we would appreciate their prescence at the meeting point as a sign of good will. Although i would also tell them that the local news channel will be there taking footage etc, because while the cameras are rolling showing how nice we are i dont think it will look to good for the police to be sitting there fining us for being "a little low".

    • 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/  
    • 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.
