Could you a bigger exhaust on it :), looks as good as new mate. I saw a Skyline going through our local town centre last week and it was one of the loudest cars ive heard yet.

My dads got a nissan skyline and yer there loud as he fitted a blitz nur spec stainless steel exhaust with removable baffles about 5 inch pipe and also when the de cat pipe is on it chucks flames out the back no flame kit or out there natural flamessmile

Yeah not sure what to do about the rims , powder them or leave em polished , anyhoo...


Forks are done and the bottom yoke . New seals , oil etc and yoke has a new bearing , no scratches thank fook

Just need the sleeves and to get the last collar out the frame







Need to get that collar into the frame first , apparently the old ones going to be a bitch to get out .

Just out of interest how have you added up the SM conversion to around a grand?
There are ways to get it done cheaper.You don't mind getting your hands dirty so you could lower that budget to around half that

That was mostly parts mate , but will break it down a bit later .



First things first , the forks , brake calipers and wheels are up for sale .

Pics in thread already but will organise a proper for sale thread later .


The forks are as you can see , blasted , coated white and resaeled by Yamaha , just the other day 8o) . Been bubblewrapped and stored since .

The calipers I havent touched but work fine , will get pics of those

The wheels are as you can see as well . The spokes and hubs are painted by me and cannot guarantee how long it'l last . The rims are nice and shiny . Tyres are legal , forgot the brand will say later . Discs are good , spindles good , sprockets good . Bearings are good .



£150 :up:

Saw this DT on eday and thought it would give you an idea of what a DT with nice new white plastics looks like.

Got my wheels :mrgreen:

Forks , brembo caliper and wheels .

Discs are fine just dirty

Hubs are fine just dirty

Rim has minor scratches but can clean up well ( excell rims )

Tyres not sure about

The spokes are fecked , gone black and not sure what to do . Cant fit them as is but not sure what to do . Powedercoat the whole thing (£100) ...or get them respoked (£200)

You want some sticky race rubber on there.What size is the rear tyre? Some Pirelli dragon supercorsas or equivalent will have you scraping the pegs.
The spokes.I take it they are mild steel like stock dtr ones?
Powdercoat is ok but will be a problem i reckon on the spokes.As the spokes move around in use the coating will likely crack in areas and powdercoat is a ****er to get off.
How about paint.The old dt wheels you did looked very nice and clean and to be honest will be the cheapest way of doing it.Take your time and they will look cool
Stainless spokes? Oh yeah, but pricey.You can buff each spoke up to a mirror finish too.
Its all down to how much ya wanna spend mate

New Boots ... [Guuci Cut Slicks !] ..... then .....

.... paint the spokes yourself ....

Your getting Too Precious about it m8 ...
Will be smart job if you clean up [your fookin good at it ! wink] & spray

Stainless ones ... would be like spending 80 K in stone cladding on a 65 K Terrace house ... if you catch my drift !?

& anyhow

Powder coated spoke / wheel 'interface' will get all fooked up when you adjust your spokes ..

Which you should be checking & adjusting regularly anyhow once your road bound ..

NO !

Also noticed my front hub is broken , bit came off in my hand :evil:

Taking it in to Yam to see if it's fecked or not . £130 for a new one so I hope not !!

If it is can I use my DTR hub on the front and still be safe ? talon hub would be nice but pricey


Pics of the cracked off bit

Battyman hub :evil: , god I hope it can still work




And want it to look like this .





Taking forks to be stripped in a minute and everything will get coated on Monday , bar the front hub if it cant work . So annoying

The hub is structually fine.The load through the axle is placed on the bearing.There will be a dust seal i presume that fits over the bearing? This may have trouble staying in place as it press fits against the walls.I don't think you will have any problems though
