Yes please remain seated....

It is not true i was offered hundreds of thousands of dollars for my yellow skyline but it is ture it is for sale....

I owe it to my fellow QLD members and friends an explaination.... You see it all started 7 years ago when i got my licence. I was bitten by the motor bike bug.... After a year of riding i realised cars are fairlly cheap to run also.... It was at this stage i was bitten by the skyline bug and i sank a heap of money into the many i have owned. However the motor bike bug bit me again yesterday when a mate let me test ride his 05 model Yamaha R6 (600cc super sports bike)....

Well i had a ride.... Then gave him the keys to my car and said ill keep the bike.... After another long ride i relized that a brand new R6 is only 15k after dealer delivery and stamp duty.... So i asked for my car back....

Went into yamaha this morning and wanted to buy right there and then.... However my brain told me to look at other bikes so i went elsewhere and tried the new GSX-R 600 (almost the same bike) I loved this bike also....

Anyway cut a long story short i had forgoten how much fun riding was and am going to buy a new bike..... Also it wont cost me as much due to rego/fuel/insurance so ill have more money for beer.... LOL

But yeah i thought i had better explain myself and if you have a mate wanting an r33 point them this way....

Took an R6 for a 200km blat and found my back to be as sore as... Then today got a gsxr600 and it is heaps more comfortable...

Also the power band is different and i believe the grsx to be smoother and more controlable....

So i put a deposit on the gsxr600....

06 model... Just got to wait now till Mid January....

    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
    • Keen to see how this goes, would love some standard mats  
    • Learned a bit @PranK To add a twist to this take, I've done some further investigation and turns out I don't know if I even have coilovers. I have Mugen Showa on all corners, which appear to be struts / springs online. Someone may be able to correct me if I'm wrong. 
    • Well, i've been told it's going to be in Poland around october - november. It should set off by the end of this month. Waiting for it to arrive is the easy part, searching for the right car, wake up in the middle of the night to see the photos and decide whether to bid or not - that was difficult
