ash, if your keen on that cruise ask iceduck as he is going as well - cant miss his car yellow 34.

Lol,

Thanks Nozilla.. Now I sound like a desperado, just to be seen at a cruise.. haha.. nah.. I'm only back for a week, but I figure if enough guys from SAU come, we can buffer each other from the hoons.. they can't overtake 6/7 cars at once on a hilly road can they? So Ash .. if you wanna go.. I'll see ya there.. I'm prolli gonna do what u said too.. See if it's aight then decide.

ur car tuned and all duc?

Nah man..

Have ordered Blitz FMIC from Nengun.. gotta wait for that before I get All the other shit installed and tuned..

Damn AVCR won't fit in the middle drinks tray .. I might have to cut it.. but I dun really want too...

Oh wells.. might have to leave it all for next time I come down..

I live 5 mins south of Ingle Farm on Sudholz Rd, and my mate David (with 180SX from Sat's cruise) will be meeting up at my place before hand, if you Duck or anyone else on SAU wanna drop by mine then head up together you're most welcome.

Sorry I haven't looked on here for a bit - busy with work! Here are some pics from the cruise and of the eng bay etc. Enjoy! :wassup:

Ahh so that explains why you were lying on the ground. pics shows that it was worth it :rofl:

Ah yes - I would forgive you for thinking I was merely working on my immpecable physique (an extra pushup here and there goes a long way......) but no - just getting things into perspective. Notice the GTR lost its numberplate somewhere..........?

Yep - that old photoshop chestnut. its the cheapest way to mod your car! You guys going down to the NS.com druise tomorrow night? I think I'll go down for a look - but opt out on going on the cruise.May meet up at the end, after a bit of a quieter cruise with a few less cars.....

Almost went on the last one - correct me if i'm wrong - that was when the police blocked all exits to the car park and went on a defect extravaganza?

happy that I didn't.....

It would put a little more strain on the pump - however the pressure required to pump oil through the oil filter is far greater than that to pump it unrestricted around the 3/8th lines and the oil cooler. Converting kpa of your gauge to PSI (perhaps a more common pressure measurement you multiply by 0.145 My car runs around 370kpa at cruise revs, therefore around 54psi - plenty of pressure to pump around the cooler etc) In a nutshell it won't pose a problem to your oil pump - the benefits of cooler oil temps therefore better oil viscosity far outweigh the very slight load increase requirements on your oil pump.

LOL - I just reread what I wrote - hope you get what I'm saying!

    • 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
