Some of the reviews HERE and HERE. Tacker hardly goes easy on them too, running full slicks in 40+ degree heat. The v8 supertaxis even have to change their brake setup when they run there due to the heat. For the price they look like a decent kit.

thanking you simon

i knew they were there, i just couldnt be assed finding them :)

Yeah i have always loved bikes for speed and agility, but fark its scary when some smuck pulls out in front of you while your cruising along...

As for Evo's i guess its all in the way you dirve it as to how long the diffs and gearbox's last, however buying second hand im sure they have all been flogged hard...

i agree its all about the way you drive it.....but if i have an AWD I want to make use of it

In short there may be 2 skylines in the garage again soon

lol, cars are more agile than bikes, they(bikes) have to slow down heaps when cornering, not to say they arent cool!

also more dangerous... for the rider that is, i wouldnt mind gettin a bike (and bike license) for the pure acceleration! :)

Edited by RusH_

yeh Im gonna do mine before the rules change just in case i want to get one, at least then I can take my bro's new Gixer for a spin when he wants to go posing in the skyline

I think the main thing is there will be a restriction on the first bike your allowed to ride no matter how old or experienced you are just as thr current 17yr old learners have to start on 250's

me riding a 250 that would be a sight poor little bike would be screaming its tits off at 60kph

Yeah they will also be a minimum number of hours needed to get your licence, so no more doing a one day or 2 day course and getting it...

Also most fo the Q-Ride places will put they prices up quite a bit to cover the higher insurance after a Q rider was killed on his road test in Southport last month...

So the system is changing, for the better i must say as its far too easy to get your licence atm. But that said go and do it now while you can do it quicklly and cheaplly...

That said ive had my licence coming up 9 years in June and ive never had an accident on my bike/s its all about how you ride it and how you monitor other drivers behaviour...

I did my licience under the old old system where you had to go on a supervised ride with a transport department officer, was not easy but i got it first go...

The old system was if you stuff up once on the test and your gone, have to come back another day and try again. As where with the Q-Ride system you keep trying til your competent...

Congrats mate, there's nothing like driving your own GTR for the first time but FFS, get an insurance cover-note on the car BEFORE you even drive it home. Can be done on the phone, 28 days to pay etc.......

Enjoy!!

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
