why would you get bored of a 250 are you really that obsessed with speed?

sure i'd prefer 600+ but it's purely for cosmetics/frame size. most 250s look meh and are small

had a close up look at a megeli 250r they are tiniy :/ and gay wheels

and how long does it take vicroads to mail me my fkn license

Like you, it's not all about speed, but from what I'm hearing the LAMS 250's are like ridiculously slow...Might have to see if my mate will let me ride his to get the feel of it...He's trying to sell it to me but I'm not really looking to buy right now...It's a red/black 09 Ninja 250, if you're interested...

Either way I'd say that's the path I'll take, means spending less initially while still having a decent looking bike, having something to ride and gain experience on, and then move up to something bigger/better looking..

When I passed my test she said if I don't have my card mailed out in 8 weeks to give them a call to chase it up, so I'd say allow 8 weeks...You should have the piece of paper they gave you that acts as a temp license in the meantime anyway....Not that you have a bike to ride lol

hmmm well unless it takes em something like 8+ seconds to get to 100 i wouldn't call em ridiculously slow lol maybe tell your mate you're interested in it just to get a test ride out of it and see what it's like. im not a fan of kawaki...

8 weeks? we were told 4...

yeah that temp license is crap though you cant look cool flauntin a piece of paper

Bought it from the newsagent...Just been filling it in every time I drive with either 'work' or 'personal' and the kms/dates etc...that enough?

These are the basic requirements:

- the date the journey began and ended

- the car's odometer readings at the start and end of the journey

- how many kilometres the car travelled on the journey

- why the journey was made (not just business/private) But a very brief explanation. I.e. business meeting with client

Cbf quoting above, but if I was actually buying a supercar I wouldn't want a 'fancy transmission'. Leave that for the soccer enthusiasts and their golf gti's.

not all gti's run the dsg box, there are some that do run a manual

and even they the dsg isnt really that fancy

Better buy one now then.

Some of them aren't even offering manual as an OPTION moving forward on current or incoming models.

It's GT-R style boxes, or no supercar for you.

It is the way of the future and for them to keep increasing the performance of the vehicles when they are stuck within emissions confines etc. Cut out shift times = win for manufacturers.

Because they are boring and take away some of the feel for driving. Don't care if te car can shift faster than me I don't drag race anyway. No doubting they are amazing technology but it's just not for me.

Dont worry r31 nismoid, don't think I'll be buying a supercar anytime this lifetime haha

i see.

they are boring. oh well, i guess you haven't driven or been in a 35 then?

Not a 35 but drove and passengered my uncles old Ferrari 599 with the paddle shift shit going on, yeah it shifts hard etc. didn't say it didn't. I said it takes some of the feel out of driving. Anyone can drive and shift well with a paddle shift g'box, but perfect shifts in a proper manual car are much harder an more fun to achieve IMO.

So what would you write when you're claiming it based on having to carry tools to and from work on a daily basis?

Must be pretty heavy tools if Dezzman considers it bulky equipment & tools :P

I would just write carrying of 'equipment & bulking tools'.

Also note you can only claim this if there is nowhere on site that you can safely store it.

Everyone has a key to the lock boxes so it's not considered 'secure lockup' which is why we can claim it from what everyone has told me

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
