think about it. I add 93 kilo to the weight of the car. Less than 10 percent.

The copper adds a minimum of 90 kg. What percentage do you think that is?

Call the car 1400 kg for the excercise. Its contact patch v weight still far outdoes that of the bike.

And i dont have to climb all over the bike to get it to change direction in a hurry. I simply move the wheel and sit there solid as a rock in a full bucket seat.

Still outdoes it by miles sure but I don't see this as much as a problem as you do obviously.

oh and meant to post this up too

Good video. I hate being wrong :D

It aint a problem at all to me. Its a problem for the poor bugga on his busa gettin his arse handed to him on a hillbilly run. :D

I think we're missing the rather important point of: by the time anyone outruns anyone. He's already got your Make, Model, Color and Licence plate both in his mind, and on his camera :P

Indeed! twould be a very foolish thing to even contemplate.

but, as they say in the classics....There aint no fool like an old fool. :P

They would be better off on a 600 than a busa. Fat ass ugly things they are :P

The benifit of the bike is that it is MUCH easier to weave it through traffic than it is for the modified fully sick car that he is chasing.

It would be a pretty fair car that would outrun me on the cbr up a twisty hill or otherwise. I think the average bogan idiot in his VN V6 is going to have his ass handed to him by the busa when he tries to run....

that is the point with any police chase. unless it was at night, coming the other way and you can turn off your numberplate light before you pass them so they at least can't get your rego, there is no point trying to escape the police no matter what the situation is. the moment they have your rego details it's game over. all you then do is piss the cop off even more so that when they do finally catch up with you they make sure to glue pieces of broken glass to the long arm of the law before they fist you with it.

yeah,

in short there are no official unmarked Police motorcycles in Qld at all...

Also on a side note, comparing a Porsche 911 to a motorbike on a race track does not come close to a falcon or commodore vs a race bike on the roads...

There is no way a police car could catch a bike on a average suburban road if the bike wants to run... I'm not just talking about speed either...

Lane splitting, bike tracks, storm water drains, foot paths, shopping centre, malls there is a million ways for the bike to get away without using speed...

      EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.

      People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
