Haha how slow do you have to take the corners on that hill...so damn tight. Gotta slip the clutch in 1st on some turns :/

Haha i know some of them are like wtffffff up and around really tight 1st or 2nd gear for me

Leigh what's done to the xr6?

not sure, good thing is the 4lt means you can pretty much strap on what ever turbo you want.. crazy

lol

wtf do you do for a living?

need to meet june 24th dead line, bride copy will do.

lol what are you on a car building reality tv show?

lameeeeee!

Give it a couple of years, most jackets will come with them and it will be a minority that don't have them lol. I wouldn't have one on a commuter/cruiser/motard, but if you're hitting the corners on a speed machine you will look the part.

R1/R6/GSXR/CBRRs I can understand, but if you got a 250 / cruiser / motard then yeah I reckon a bit lame as they wont get any decent speed anyway lol

ride in 2 weeks time :D you can come over and help me put on my new parts if they arrive :P

I was reading up on them earlier, apparently they give more protection than they do aerodynamic assistance. Some manufacturer did wind tunnel tests and found little to no aerodynamic change, whilst people have been in crashes with them and claimed that the hump levels out your back with the back of your helmet - therefore less pressure on / chance of hyperextending your neck in a fall.

Yeah I'll give you a hand.

I'd happily have the hump if im riding an R1 lol but on a lil 2fiddy looks a bit overkill

Aparently makes a noticeable difference on freeways/high speeds

Some find it uncomfortable though

Dez what jacket you getting?

Something in the Dainese range

    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
