I feel it's important to distinguish between Melbourne souvlakis and kebabs, as many people think they are one and the same.

Souvlaki = wrap, untoasted, usually made by Greeks/Lebs and bought from a walk in shop. No such thing as a doner souvlaki.

Kebab = wrap, often toasted, usually made by goat lovers/Arabs and bought from a van. You can get a doner kebab.

There is a lot of crossover, but in pure form, that's how it is!

kebab can use The land of goat sphincter rings bread instead of wraps too, which is heaps better imo

Souvlaki is greek

Kebab is The land of goat sphincter rings and that's the best kind, out of a van at 3am nothing comes close

As for the lygon lamb i've heard some mice/kitchen stories on it a while ago and haven't been in there since

mmm :S well least mine was made fresh and wasn't sick :P

When was the last time you all ate there?

less than a year

Very true, I should have mentioned this but forgot the bread they used when toasting. Souvlaki is normally a pita, the kebab can be The land of goat sphincter rings bread.

Yo bluejeans I haven't tracked the SS, but I've run them at DECA and they were quite good. Don't really have a basis for comparison as I've only ever done DECA with them, but I was happy with how they performed. Obviously softer spring rates you get a bit more body roll than firmer springs, but that's the trade off. Still way better handling than stock.

all good man, was just curious.

I was told that the BC ER's i was tempted to get are way too stiff for daily from a mate at work.. but then again i do like pretty firm coilovers..

im sure this time next month ill still be tossing up what to buy :/

46 looks out of place on that thing lol

Oh really

birds ride tonight if it's dry? (although the hills will probably still be wet :\)

Have you looked outside lol? Hills will be soaked.

was thinking of doing the same...

46 looks out of place on that thing lol

Yeah I agree - it came with it, the 46 and dunlop are coming off when I get my DRZ stickers on :)

It's not exactly slow, I rode my cousins ninja 250 and it felt like half as quick lol which is fair enough being a 400.. (obviously not as quick as my 650 though but then again it's not meant to be, just heaps more fun!)

factory wet weight is 146 KGs i've taken a lot of stuff off it and when you've got half a tank of fuel + me being only 70kgs front will come up :D

I also want to ride. And it will happen!

Also tempted to remove my mirrors and put on blocking plates. Can't find a decent looking set of aftermarket mirrors and I think it would look cool without them altogether. Just fear that I'm creating another defect mobile :(

Lol, I bought 8 dollar mirrors off ebay, bar end mirrors which i'll be mounting under the bar like this:

Good thing about motorbikes is cheap and easy to mod.. so far I've spent like $250 on front fender, rear fender eliminator, front light, rim tape, stickers, mirrors etc. cheap cheap!

A good learning curve for me as well on how stuff works without messing around with a car that you need for work/daily I just hope my front forks don't fall off when I'm practising wheelies

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
