Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

+1 .... a contact of mine can get them in 17" for $850 a set without tyres.

And I can't get $1,000 (with tyres) for my awesome super lightweight mega-dished Enkei Circlars (recently repainted), so I am not sure how Chinese ripoff, heavy Drift Teks can be worth anywhere near that .... no offense meant Damo - I just call it as I see it :/

how the f did you survive that first stack?? great resto job on the bike

***edit, ahh was on the track, i thought it happened on the road, but still....ouch!

The GSXR was crashed on the road. I bought it like that. Sent it off for chassis straightening by Snowy @ Adrill Engineering, then rebuilt it with Showa suspension etc.

The Brutale was crashed by me = one broken shoulder and an angry insurer! :/

The RS250 was low sided going around turn 2. I later subsequently crashed at turns 5 and 3 on that bike.

The GSXR was also low sided at the exit of turn 5 and also thru the esses.

Can't wait to get back into racing, but need the shoulder to heal up more. Don't think it'll withstand a high speed tumble

I just need to crash at turns 1 and 6 for a clean sweep :)

GO HARD OR GO HOME!

:):P :P

what happened to the bloke who crashed the gsxr :s

nice little history of bikes there, whats ur current road bikes?

I believe the guy broke both legs and got a few other injuries I've since forgotten.

I've still got the Brutale (repaired and sexy as ever), my TLR1000 v-twin, my GSXR600 race bike ... even built a CBR turboed drag bike. But I stripped that thing down because it was just too dangerous. Chassis couldn't cope with the power :/

      Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅

      Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....

      Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
