On my way home my dodgy cressida rims spat two of the nuts holding on of the rim on, it did a bit of damage to my brake caliper and left me stranded for about 30min while my g/f went and got my 18's :D

Sh1t sindows,

I thought your wheels looked a little scary.

Glad you got home in the end. :D

I heard you changed gearbox aswell? could of sworn I only heard one gear change?

How'd you end up fixing it?

The stall convertor was loosened a little bit(not enough) and i changed the injectors to larger ones.... its all good now... on my first run i changed into 3rd right at the end of the track.... tyres were at 18psi and heaps of bouncing off the line

If anybody is interested in a group buy for MT street radials let me know, they are usually $290 a tyre

but i reckon if i buy 5 sets at least we should be able to get them for $250. They come in a few sizes, most

common for skyline etc is 255/50/16, there is a smaller set 235/50/15 but im not sure on availability on Nissan 15" rims. Alot of Commodore drivers use this size.

Might not be a bad idea in the next month or so. Plan to go a bigger turbo so if I want to run the times ill need them I guess.

Have you tried Rocket at Huntingwood?

I bought a set of 255/50/16's from there for ~$250 a corner - perhaps you can do better on price if you go through them???

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
