Come on mountian runs f00l!

My brother and I have wanted bikes for so long, but the father won’t let it happen. Sucks bum, reckons he’ll only condone Motor-x bikes.

Oi Lee, let me ride one of the R’s :bunny:

i was the same, i then moved in with my girlfriend and bought a rs250, we broke up and i moved home again and had to sell it.

now they are talking about buying matching harleys, i think its double standards

It’s a total joke; we’ve both ridden for years although not much so much road bike. Not saying I’m good at riding, but I know enough to get me by and not kill myself on a suitable and realistically sized bike.

I find it funny he condones me buying and driving high horse power cars, yet bikes is another story.

not my bikes, all my friends have bikes lol we all went for our bike licence together, lol they all bought bikes while i went for cars... dam it :bunny: should of gone for the bikes....

The 1000 would be enough to pop up on Lee I reckon? Scary thought him popping wheelies past everyone on the highway :D

lol, the 750 i rode was enough, i ride very responsibly and would never do that :)

but after seeing Wild hogs i really would like a tourer(sp) bike,

I like you even more now.

:)

Yeh, can't wait until Marc gets his new bike

Hehe Marc and I were on his fireblade at 220 and all it wanted to do was wheelstand...he was changing gear at like 2000rpm :D

So yeh wheelies out of the gixer would be noooo trouble :)

:D

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
