Parent's have been bugging me for idea's on things to get me for christmas and after a bit of thnking i thought a helmet would be a good idea as i need one if i wanna do the track day in January. Now it has to be ADR approved and reasonably cheap, i also want one thats open faced (better for vision in my opinion) now the only place i can think of off the top of my head is autosport on magill rd. Is there anywhere else thats possibly better priced?

Cheers in advance!

I bought mine at Gepps Cross Kart Mania - about $100. It is full face though - not sure if they have part face or not.

You might want to check, but I thought for Lala you have to have full face - it is a fire safe thing.

Any good motorcycle place will sell them. Make sure you try lots of different ones as different brands will fit you differently (thats a lot of different's) i find that Shoei's have always fitted my head the best so thats all I buy.

Also how much is your head worth? I personally would never get a cheaper brand even if they do meet ADR's but i ride motorbikes so i'm sure a helmet just for track days in a car a 100 dollar jobby would be fine.

    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
    • Looks fancy But after having a look, prior to its installation, I noticed that the yellow looking power steering reservoir would look crap next to this So I have this incoming..... Much cheaper than the Moroso and has great reviews (yeap, it's a Moroso knock off)
    • Can we place bets? My money is on there is always the option to use the 1 way profile. So the diff is either 2 way and 1 way, or 1.5 way or 1 way. 
    • I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.
