Is that the one in pittwater rd ?

If so we were there last year when nick and carlo had the mr2's

Great feed, but if we have more than 8 we will need to book early.

How about Bella Mia? this is a great restaurant in Roseville. it's italian food and very, very good. it's high end though so not pizza, spag bol etc. more like carpaccio di manzo, and scalopine di vitello con funghi (two of my favourites). mmm i can taste it now. or the northern is quite good, plus for andrew they will cook for you. people who are so inclined can cook their own.

Roseville is good for me, actually anywhere is, unless ppl want to go for a mini cruise out my way to a place like the Mean Fiddler, back of Castle Hill?

...and Robin..ill be back in Melb from June onwards...;)

I will give it a miss if its that italian restaurant.. I was pritty disappointed with the food.

If you want decent italian then dee why we should go..  

nah it's not that one. we haven't been to this place before (well i have but not with SAU). it's in roseville near the station. very nice food, but not particulary cheap. no more expensive than R+R though...

When we choose the dinner of the month we need to consider:

1. Parking, needs to be pleanty and safe

2. Food needs to be good and must be able to cater for our group size (2-30 people)

3. Price, its not fair for some to go to places like R+R often as it is a $60 pp without drinks. The Kaiser Stubahan is also Exey (was there on tuesday)

4. Needs to be close to the main group of people going ( Northside)

5. Cannot be too close to a shopping center as its Thursday nights and all the shopping moms are out to dent our cars

There are so many places on the Northshore that we can go to.

makoto is on victoria ave in chatswood. I haven't been to that one. been to the one on liverpool st though and it was excellent.

    • 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
