I got mine for $200 from a large motorbike shop but I've heard as low as $150. Just make sure it's up to the Australian Standards (stickers on the back).

I would just think of the largest motorbike shop near enough to you cos they should have the volume to get a good price.

With Helmets, if you are willing to pay a bit more you can get SNELL approved helmets which are higher quality and are useable in all(?) forms of motorsport. I would dare say if you race on the circuit (As opposed to a track day) you would need a SNELL approved helmet.

I know for riding, I wouldn't use anything less then a SNELL, but when you're in a car I guess it's not as important.

And you can get cheap helmets for $100 ish at bike shops if that suits you... You basically pay more for features like cooling, removable liner, weight, etc. Of course you do pay for safety standard too...

All helmets sold (legally anyways) in Australia are of a decent standard, so you should be fine with a cheap if you only want to do track/drift days. If you plan to race, or have the money, I would go a snell approved.

If you want to check out the differences in helmets, just find a bike forum. try www.dirtbikeworld.net it's the best forum I know, and it's aussie.

Oh and in case anyone cares, I'm definitely going.  So see you all there.  

 

If anyone from here sees me (White R34 4 door) come and say hello.

You have turned into a track junkie... The full gp circuit is awesome fun. And im sure there will be hardly anyone at this one (easter) so you should get some great track time..

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
