the cops are fine, as long as ur going the speed limit.

I was driving up there with my gf the other month, going through the "windy" bits inbetween newport there was a porche behind me and soemthing else becide that, i was gonig the speed limit cause i knew there would be cops there, when we got out of the windy bits the car behind the porshe just took off, was a r32 gtst, lowered chromies.......and zorst. bout 400m up the street tthere was an rbt there, so the 32, 33 and a porshe boxter all pulled into the rbt. The cops would have been thinking this was the catch of the night, i was going to ask i i could jump out and take a photo, *** it would be funny.

The cops rbted the 32 and looked round the car, checked his licence and rego, and off he went... he came up to me and said the norm "have u had nething to drink" etc. he said count from 1-10 so i started going 11, 12, 13, 14, and then get a bit of a hit in my gut from my gf, before i relised what i was doing. and procerd counting 1, 2, 3, 4 etc.

and he just told me to have a nice night.

If ur going the speed limit and not doing anything crazy the cops seem to be cool but it all... untill i pulled out my flamethrower and torched the mother****ers... but my 33 was too quick for them to catch me. then i woke up.

Aplex.. I dont mean to shite on your parade.. But be carefull with the cops. To say they are fine unless your speeding is not accurate. The palm beach locals are really anti cruises these days. As soon as they hear 1 loud exhaust they hit auto-dial and call in the cops. If your lucky normal cops rock up and they are awesome (edit: okay.. most of them are okay. Some of them are ego maniacs). They will just tell you to move on and thats that.

Most of us have been cruising up to palm beach for years. The cops have even put notes on the number plates of my car and a few others saying that we dont get up to any trouble.

I am just trying to stress the importance that those going to Palm Beach really behave, otherwise the cops will come down really hard on you all. Since I dont know you guys I will prolly give it a miss.

p.s.. Your car is stock (I saw in the dyno thread) so you can get away with more. hehe

Go the stockie !!!

I dislike the authorities as much as the next guy, got a $100 fine for doing an illeagel U-turn at 1:00 at night in berowa (not a car insight, becides the ones that were on the cruise. and the ***ker gave me a fine...ass

But i find that if cops arent lookingfor you and ur not doing anything wrong, they leave u alone. I have never been randomly pulled over, only for rbts and stuff...

but then again the car is a stocker. But then again again i ad a really loud subi liberty gx lowered, zorst, rims etc etc. and never got pulled over in that either.

wait till DJ approves, its his cruise, he started it.  

;)

If we all know thornleigh maccas and only some of us know waitara, why dont we all meet at thornleigh?  I was driving past waitara maccas, and the car park is tiny, i dont think we would be able to fit everyone in there...

thoughts?

There'll be plenty of room for us there at waitara, I've already changed location once i'm not gonna change it again. as i said before, there was a thread for discussion before i opened this one ;)

so location will still be waitara maccas it's on the pacific hwy just out of hornsby...

If people want to meet up at thornleigh and head ove to waitara together go for it :rofl:

hey guys what time do you think you will be going past the intersection of monavale road and forest way

No idea man, but if your there say 15mins after the schedled dat tme and wait for us ya should be fine... :)

I can't get on the net much at the moment so i'll update as often as i can... but i won't be changing locations 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?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      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/
