This bike is absolutely awesome. It'll do over 130km/h in first gear, and will wheelstand off the throttle at illegal speeds in second. The brakes are phenomenal (twin 330mm discs with twin 4-pot callipers on the front) and the handling is exactly what you'd expect out of a FireBlade – excellent. It'll do 300km/h, too; I never made it that far though, I only got to about 260-270 before I ran out of track, but it was still pulling like a train. I've run an [email protected], with a lighter rider and a harder launch it will easily run in the tens. It's no Hayabusa, but I believe it's a better package.

Despite being bucketloads of fun on the track, it's also a great road bike – that is, after all, the main reason I bought it in the first place. I regularly ride it from Ipswich to Toowoomba, and get off feeling much the same as when I got on, just a bit colder from the chilly Toowoomba climate :) Most of the km's on the bike were on the highway, not in heavy city traffic. It is always garaged.

It's been serviced every 5,000km by Honda. I was absolutely meticulous with this – it never went over the 5,000km mark without a proper log book service. Possibly over the top, but you know that the bike is in perfect mechanical condition. It's recently had its 25,000km service (shim adjustment).

I love the bike and really wish I could keep it. I'm upgrading my car (to a GTR) and can't afford to keep the bike as well, so I very reluctantly offer it for sale. Those who know me can no doubt vouch for how difficult a decision this was.

I'm in Ipswich/Brisbane on weekends and in Toowoomba during the week. If you're a serious buyer, I can be contacted on 0417 761 243, or by email at [email protected]. The nature of my work means that I'm sometimes out of mobile phone range, so if you can't get me just leave a message with your contact details and I'll get back to you. And in case you're wondering, no, that's not my bike in my avatar…

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
