this link has all the other links and brakepad info (it's a bit old now but most of the info is useful)

Endless RF650 brakefluid is used by Brawn F1 GP (and previously by BAR Honda in their F1 cars). if it works in F1 then it will be more than enough for us mere mortals.

Endless ftw >> Motul :laugh:

How much for that Endless RF650 fluid Kim?

Also whats the heat rating on those???

http://www.endless-sport.co.jp/english/e-p...brake_fluid.htm

wet/dry = 218'C/328'C

comes in 500mL cans so depending on what car you may need 2 to 2.5 cans. i need to check pricing again with the distributor given the poor Yen exchange in recent months.

You may remember Dean mentioning Nolan helmets sold through John Bowe Driving for $300 including delivery and hopefully received an email about the Nolan X-Lite X-Pilot helmets.

I have found this website in the UK which sells them for GBP270 about AUD525 (scroll down to the very last helmet). http://www.helmets4u.co.uk/index.php?manuf...i260iete8d799c5

Remember that we will need helmets for the 23 Nov course and the private trackday that Adrian (rad32) is organising for the 26 Oct.

some advice re helmets - you really need to try a few of them on to get the right size before buying. this applies to bike and motorsport helmets.

one manufacturer's design will probably fit your head better than another - as i already have a Shoei motorcycle helmet i was keen on getting an Arai, but found that the Bell ones fit me better. and within the Bell range they have S M L but also 58/60/62 sizing which are half sizes and therefore allow better fit for those who fall between medium and large.

as Luke mentioned earlier, Chris is the manager at Revolution Racegear Blair Athol but i have also dealt a lot with Nathan there. they both know me quite well from my enquiries last year.

Is there any details on the course that is after the one we did, the track one? or is it still being organized

the High Performance trackday with the same John Bowe Driving team has indeed been booked for Monday November 23 - i just haven't had a chance to post the thread yet! this will be launched soon enough

as you did the course on August 25 you should already have the enrolment form for Nov 23 - Dean gave them out at the end of that day. this means that you have the best chance of securing your spot for the HP course by sending the form in now with your full payment (same cost of $385). i will not be asking for deposits this time as it's first in or miss out - i have over 40 people on the mailing list who are eligible for the 28 places offered, so please get in early! if you (or anyone else) has already sent in their form, please let me know via PM so that i can put you on the list.

cheers - Kim

should be between $60-80 each.

actually, i checked today and the retail price for the Endless brake fluid is $60rrp. i can do it for $55 per 500mL can or $50/500mL if part of a brake service (labour additional) .

Hello everyone,

Sorry to bump an old thread but I am just chasing some information on when and if there will be another event like this in 2010 or anything similar?

I had a look on the 'lala website but couldn't find anything about this?

Cheers :D

Wayne, these aren't available on the Mallala website... visit the John Bowe site for public days. I know for a fact that Kim is in the middle or organising another of these days in the coming months. Stay tuned, I'll get him to post it up here :D

If interest is there I'll launch another High Performance day with Kim also

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
