Notice given - time to cruise carsales

Didn't you just ask for a pay rise?

Although I do like the look of the R1.. very much so.

$7500

May as well have printed AIDS on the front, that is f**king hideous.

lol dezz and Leigh get R1s

/R1saustralia

Seriously though, love my bike...wouldn't trade it for much, only a top level Duc or a big cruiser if I got sick of sports bikes. You'd be very happy with one, they are just extreme.

another question

Solid mounts: yes or nor(reasons supporting why not)

taking it you talking engine/gearbox mounts?

I moved from the OEM to the nismo "solid" mounts when had the engine out.

Engione def has less movement which I assume is a good thing for the drive train

best point isgearbox moves less so you have much more confidence in where the gear leaver is.

b4 them leave in gear hit boost and it porb moved an inch or so, now just MM.

mates S15 was ever better it was soo sloppy b4 gear leaver would be moving a couple inches when hit boost or lift off, he went same and cleaned up nicely

Yeh so you reccomend.. Is the car uncomfortable to drive with the mounts or as normal? Coz they aren't exactly solid they are just nismo poly urethane right?

Reason I wanted to as I saw it on the dyno and the motor moves a shit load, then Scott was trying tighten the wastegate and as he was pushing against it the whole motor moved. Don't know if fkd or just how it is but I didn't like it. How do you rate 'Megan' stuff? $250 +ship for engine and gearbox mounts, they are pretty much the nismo ones with a different brand stuck onto it

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
