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..

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
