Just trying to gauge numbers of Skyline owners on the Sunshine Coast that may be interested in helping me out for my wedding in January. I am preferably looking for white Skylines, but at this point silver or other lighter coloured cars (probably not black :) ) would also be ok - the wedding is going to be a very non-traditional summer wedding, and will feature plenty of colour, so if you own a well presented Skyline and are interested, please let me know.

Thanks!!

I really think the idea of Skylines as wedding cars is really ghey and tacky.

Go and hire 3 identical white cars, they don't have to be Limo's BMW's or Merc's.

I reckon 3 white VY Berlina's would be nicer than Skylines as wedding cars.

What does you missus think about climbing in and out of the back of a coupe in her wedding dress?

She's the one that suggested asking fellow Skyliners - whether or not she has properly thought through getting in and out, I have no idea! :)

Obviously if we could find someone with a 4-door, that would be optimal... :D

Depends on the location and the exact date, but I could prolly help out.

Thanks for all offers so far!

The date will be 14th January (Saturday) for an afternoon wedding (around 2-3pm... ish) - I'll tally up the offers a little closer to the date and give everyone the full details then.

Thanks again everyone! ;)

Oh and Daniel, I love black Skylines - just not for a wedding... maybe for my funeral... not in the near future though - touch wood! :P

OK, we are just over a week away from the big day (aaaarrgh! :nyaanyaa:) - can I just get a more definite show of hands as to who is willing and able to help me out on Saturday 14th January with my wedding.

I can PM the details (including what's in it for you :blink: ) to those interested in providing their cars for the day.

Thanks everyone!!

    • 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.
