Safety gear first fgt

In my defence if you check a few pages ago, already hit up AMX to have a look! Going to try and head into a Peter Stevens / Bike Mart later this week as well for a look-see! Liking Alpinestar jackets... so need to go to peterstevens to try some on :D.

When it's time for bike itself, I may need your mad bike inspection skills if you're free to help, Birds! THANKS IN ADVANCE ho ho ho :D

It is true I am the CBR inspectah

CBR inspektah, thoughts on bikes all the way in Geelong/Bendigo LOL...

Think in the end will just stick with a kwaka 250...

2 mates that just got ninja 300s have those white alpinestar jackets and gloves, they look like power rangers :P

Only makes me want one more... power rangers are awesome? XD

Thinking of getting a predominantly black one though maybe...

Toyota Crown's can now be imported up to 2003. shit yeaaaahh.

Contacted two small private companies. $600-$700

Guess Jims is on the money

yeah, that was my thought... i'm happy to use jims as they have the name to back it up and my bath was redone years ago so it has 2 coats that need removal and will be a PITA.

also it's so old it's probably lead based paint so fk doing it myself to save $100 lol

How much would it cost for a removal of the tub and a put a new one in.

You could do that tiling yourself even

    • Shove more foam in it as a minimum if you possibly can. Or steel wool (not the stuff with soap on it!) Baffles / getting the oil out of the air is huge, and should be done at both the cam cover, and the catch can.   I'm about to do a power steering reservoir, and even that needs some thought to make sure air is separated from the oil, to stop evil Cavitation. I'll probably look at doing my own catchcan later on too.
    • I was once told, who it was I'm to old to remember, that the length of the OEM wheels brace supplied with a vehicle is designed long enough for a average person to apply enough torque to do up, and undo the wheel nuts to the specified torque  What a average person is is anyone's guess though, i.e. average fat bastard, average knuckle head, average perfect sized human......like me Unless of course, a tyre shop has ugga dugga'd them up to "torque to yeild/strip" specs, used cross threading as natures lock tight, or a big breaker bar was used to tighten them up to get some nice stretch in the poor old wheel studs Me, I torque wheel nuts to 1 elbow joint click, lower torque settings are based of wrist clicks, higher torque settings are based of shoulder clunks, or total dislocation for anything that requires all of the torques 
    • I think the catch can design is pretty flawed. Evident in the fact that the V2 one moved to a larger top mounted filter which alone would have helped with overflow and reduce restrictions compared with the side filter. I also imagine there was a major improvement to the baffling design. It is worth mentioning that this catch can with the RB20 was never as much of an issue and the high kms RB25 is likely a part of the problem. I have gotten quotes for both a new "Vibrant Gen 3" catch can and to modify this existing ones but that may have to wait until after the track day. I hope the sump/head breathers/drains and cam splash plates will be enough
    • Yep, both. The ratio is 1.8 instead of OEM being 1.7. The rocker bodies are modified with a larger bolt hole and re-threaded with 10mm holes instead of the 8mm YT has stock. Finding out they don't actually fit the stock castings cause a lot of un-impressment by the person in the USA who tapped the new holes for the 'upgraded' YT product. He was very unhappy with them given their previous design did not require 'clearancing'
    • That too, but I think this is why she's put the work into the cam cover baffles. I mean, a catch can should only need to be a catch can, not an oil air separator also. Not to say that putting the effort into having it do a better job of oil-air sep is a waste of time, but doing the sep earlier is always going to make life better. And that should happen now anyway.
