Hence another reason why people should be signing up for the SAU:SA membership :rofl:

Track days, Grand Openings, Dyno Days, Dawn/Breaky cruise, Birthday dinners....so far things are looking good

how funny do the barrier skirts look on the gorge

I'm thankful someone is doing something. They're to protect sliding motorcyclists from hitting the armco posts. I've seen first hand how much damage those barriers can do to a sliding human body. :) They cater for cars, not motorcycles. Those 'skirts' are an awesome idea. Not the greatest things on earth, but better than nothing.

:P

hahahah riders should slow down :P

but, i see good idea then

Yeah, definitely a good idea. I remember some years ago seeing a guy badly smash up his legs, with multiple compound fractures. Saw the whole crash and stuck around for about half an hour holding the broken pieces together waiting for the ambulance to hurry up and get there, and trying to keep the guy alive. He survived, but lost one leg. If those barriers (skirts) were in place, he might have stood a better chance of keeping his leg and minimising his internal injuries.

Those wire barriers are far far worse. :( There is not much on the roads that are motorcyclist friendly.

I've lost two friends at the gorge (and thats just the tip of the iceberg). I've got other mates who still ride thru there taking unnecessary risks, but they are amazing roads and sometimes even I get caught up in the moment. Recently I've had two friends crash along the gorge and the other roads around the area. Yes, motorcyclists should slow down ... but most and young and invincible. Its great to see that the MRA (Motorcycle Riders Association) take the safety risks of the barriers seriously and have done something about it.

The email form seems to work for some and not for others, its strange, and i really cant work it out. Fill the form and and mail it in, or alternatively, print it off and hand it to any of the exec members. A couple of outings i can think of are Kadina, or a few of us will be at Repco Modbury on Saturday 5th June. Money can be paid through bank transfer, via paypal, cheque, or cash. :)

Yeah, but I know an individual who does 200km/h+ on part of the Gorge every Sunday morning and has never had a visit from the fuzz .... there is almost no part of the Gorge where he would do under the speed limit ....

:blink: Some say, he has no regard for the police, some say, he's an awesome dude, all we know is, he's called the... Stig?

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
