Anyone know if, during daytime use, headlights are mandatory? I have a track bike which is road rego'd for insurance purposes, and obviously has no headlights, but I'd like to take it out every so often. It is fitted with brake and tail lights and I could easily fab up some indicator brackets too. Just the lack of headlight is the issue. Obviously would never ride at night without it...

I'd say yes they are, or the bike technically isn't in roadworthy condition and would void your insurance anyway? Dunno just my thoughts

MO WTF? Already? That build didn't take long at all, felt like less than a week.

If it was built but his cousins like his original guards, then it probably has daewoo pistons and a Hyundai excel block

Nah I'm almost done. Couple of f**k ups by ikea I had to fix though, like oversized pre drilled holes..

It's just time consuming. I saw your car.. Was gonna box it in with trolleys.. Maybe next time

Haha did you have to get some parts swapped over or something? What did you buy, anyway?

Ah, yeah, I was in Kitchens today.

Did you swing by our new lolly bar? $2 per 100g. It's aight. But can't have much too unhealthy yo :P

Birdy, what do you think of Martini Racing gearbox oil?

I have no experience with it, though Martini products are generally very good, so I doubt you'd see their name on something shit. I could be wrong, but from memory Martini are just rebranders of decent stuff from other manufacturers.

Nope, one kit. "Hemnes" set of draws. Finished them off today. Found more issues.. One of the biscuit joins weren't drilled deep enough and pushed through the face side snapping the face of the draw. All the screws just keep threading themselves. Fixing sooooo many of ikeas f**k ups..

Tl:dr

Yeh next time I'll just buy premade. Lol easier less problems or just build my own from scratch

They make their own stuff now I believe according to mate who works there, ie used to sell endless 600 brake fluid, now have their own.

Engine and gearbox now filled with martini, yet to start it though. Motorbike soon to also have martini

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
