Honestly I rate my driving 2 on your chart. I have been out on the track at oran park a few times and had a ball, I have excelent car control although I have yet to full master the skyline (as far as pushed it to its full potential)

I think you're rating system is a little skewed...

Just because you can do EC in 2:02 (which really isn't anything to brag about), and Wakefield in 1:17 (*really* nothing to brag about), it doesn't mean you're a good driver at all...

Lap times are very dependant on the car... I'd say nearly everyone would be able to pull off a sub two minute EC lap in my car, just purely because of the power...

Out of 5, I'd rate myself a 3.

aye yay yay, can never please everyone.

your more than welcome to structure a scale of your own that makes more sense to you.

I agree it's not the best rating system but hey it's not exactly the bureau of statistics!

Having stepped out of a stationwagon and into a Skyline I felt that my driving skills increased tenfold but they DON'T.

Overconfidence is something that I know I've been guilty of on occasions, where you pull something off and then think to yourself, "This could have ended in tears!"

Rating oneself is hard to do so all I will say is that I can reverse park OK and I hit the Natio with gusto when I'm there.

One day I'll go to the track and find out just how poor my skills are!

I abstain :P:)

I'm a reasonable driver, I understand car control and can push the limits once I'm familiar with a car. I'm no Fangio, even though an undercover cop likened me to the great man once.

Hey duncan, is the skyline difficult to throw around wakefield??

I would've thought a skyline would be doing mid teens?

What mods do you have?

Or were you just BSing about your time :)

EDIT: oh...you mean 1.03.22??? ;)

lol! the 1.22.03 was in the daewoo, on road tyres.

my skyline best is 1.11, stock except 9psi boost. I think that's the club record still.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
