Just a heads up to people who may display there email address in their skylines australia profile.

I just had a nice conversation with someone named (Josh),he was signed into my old msn email

([email protected])

I asked who it was using my account,he said his names Josh.

i asked how he got my email account,he said 'skylinesaustralia'

so i said he wishes he had a skyline,then he said he has a GTR.

probly just some young tosser playing games.

so just a head up to fellow skyliners.

i suggest not displaying your email.

P.S in no way am i blaming SAU.com

the account was hacked before my pc was just recently repaired.

so just letting you know there are tossers about.

Haha you run MSN of course you're up to getting exploited.

Patch yourself, change your passwords and use a firewall is about as good-er advice as I can give without being overly specific/prescriptive :blush:

Oh and be weary of using netbank on the same PC unless you're sure you don't have spyware.. you may be running a zombie network client.

Yeah ofcoarse. You can never really be 100% secure.

Norton will protect you from major vulnerabilities, but not fake webpages and stuff.

I'm still not quite sure how your account got hacked off SkylinesAustralia though? It's not as if the guy found your email off SAU and then hacked it cause he physcially found your email off here.

It just doesn't reall make sense. You would think if someone could 'hack' emails they find off websites, they would just hack their friends because they already know them?

I don't think I've caught the jist of what you mean?

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      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.
