Helmet was around 500, jacket around 500, pants around 250, gloves around 100, boots around 250-300

cant remember exactly but pretty close to those prices, got a little bit off due to buying all from peter stevens at once

Yeah all sounds pretty standard...I've got a hookup at Peter Stevens so that should help nicely

you at least need helmet jacket and gloves imo which will set you back over 1k for some decent gear.

I asked the guy how much do i need to spend on a helmet he replied "how much is your head worth?"

It's true to an extent but also a sales pitch...I'm no expert but from what I've been told by those who are, if it passes the Aus standards, it'll protect your head pretty much as well as any other helmet that has. The more they cost the lighter and therefor more comfortable they are, so cost doesn't always = safer, usually just more comfortable and better looking

I won't skimp on gear though, like I said, nice astars jacket and gloves, I'll go all out on the helmet, and probably boots and some pants, probably the kevlar jeans to start

Not really, he knows what he is doing, does tricks like sits on the tank, stands up on the seat, legs to one side... also drifts its pretty damn good

I'm sure he's good at it, but pretty much everyone who does shit like that, on bikes or in cars, 'knows what they're doing' until they wrap themselves around a pole that is.

Mo, youre a f**king retard...

Get a set of plain draggin kevlar jeans, for if you ride to work or what ever they look acceptable. But I also want to get a pair of 'army' style kevlar jeans for the fun rides

Would mean having to get changed when I get to work, might just go the work pants and boots for riding to/from work

Saw the exact 250 I wanna get tonight, it's always parked out front of the cinemas here..Young dude was leaving on it as I came out....Someones gotta tell him you're supposed to ride the bike, not the clutch

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
