Compounds are sick, but it's almost too easy; I like the traditional feel of the recurve. Can always get both?

No compromise! Ride my bike sometime; you'll see what I don't wanna give up haha.

Tax return > custom leather two piece suit > Phillip Island!

haha alright we can switch around next time :P

always feels weird switching from road / motard

no

i want the medics to be impressed as they collect my body parts

Bahahahaha, I've got to hand it to you, I may not agree with everything you say but you sure do sick to your word. Respect enough, but srsly, I hope that never happens to you.

Daytona sounded good from what I heard..

Also I liked your pace through the hills.. quick and fun but not silly (considering we don't know the turns) I always prefer following for some reason.. the DRZ kept up fine just some of the higher speed straights (120+) Adam was gone haha

Too bad we didn't get a good run down Burwood highway end

Thanks dude that's a pretty rad compliment! I tend to be hyper aware of my riding when I'm around others so I'm glad it suited. Spending the day buzzing around the peninsula had worn me out so by the time I got to you guys I was happy to cruise. Muscles are sore today!

Daytona sounds ok, the Micron pipe isn't too bad but I think the high pitched note triples produce is either a love or hate situation... And I'm leaning towards the hate :( apart from that it's a nicely balanced bike just a little underpowered. I wonder if a full system would fix that... Hmmmm :)

Might be a goer then. That's my biggest issue with stiff coils...accelerating up a hill / around a corner and losing the rear end over a friggen bump :/

greddy type s - do it

Insuring anything is easy, putting a claim through is a different story.

not at all, he's with shannons...

hell I put a claim through for an acco between two cars that were both insured with shannons that had a love tap in the Sandown raceway carpark and they didn't even question us.

honestly it wasn't from the trackday and it DID happen in the carpark, but I did expect them to at least pressure us a little bit.

basically call was:

hi shannons i are accident

hi r33 how accident happen?

i in sandown raceway carpark, someone back into me

icic, where you want fix?

i are micolour customer

ok npbs, micolour are trusted repairer

kthnkbye

i got mine through j imports...

there is a set in autobarn chadstone that hasn't moved for like 3 years

IMHO call chaz and tell him i told you to buy them

tell him you have (insert amount you are prepared to pay) and see what he says.

he wont want to let them go cheap cos he will have to make a loss, but end of the day they are not moving

just check they are for a 33 first

yeah the dude was pretty chill on the phone.

Whoh fark that. 3rd party fire / theft covers up to $10k and costs $600pa...

Didn't you buy your 32 for $2000?

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
