yeah its awesome, they didnt even have them on the shelves yet and my gf and i decided to go out and buy 2 bikes.

she didnt want anything to much, but she got a nice bike for around $300, where as i wanted the hydrolic disks and got a $1060 bike for $900.

so this bike is brand new, meaning that not even a customer has taken it for a test ride around the shop. cant wait til tomorrow

Looks a very nice bike and sounds like a really good buy. I do a fair bit of racing and have been competing since 1996 in cross country. Where did you get it from if you dont mind me asking?

thanks :cheers:

i got it from gold cross bikes (name may be slightly different) gotta get a bike rack now. its fun to ride, nice and smooth, breaks are awesome as well.

gearing is great, its a 9 speed so all up i have 27 gears, its sweet!

Cool, was just wondering as I am always on the look out for a good bike shop. Best one I go to at the moment is Terry Hammond in Highett Road next to the train station. Always has a good stock of bits and is local to me.

hey i got a GT too which looks very similar.. think its a 2003 model.. no fancy discs though..

pretty nice to ride. Went for a ride in Brisbane over the weekend - nearly killed me! too many damn hills! I haven't really taken it offroad yet, as its still got the slicks on it :Oops:

urs is the avalanch 2.0? awesome :rant:

havent taken mine offroad yet but might take it to the farm soon lol

i had the chance to buy a 2004 avalanche 0.5 for the same price but there were only sizes small and extra small left

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
