i work with a guy who grew up in the dark ghettos of Labrador on the Gold Coast and he is COMPLETELY CONVINCED that his VK is a superior machine to my skyine.

i patronise him constantly by asking him to explain to me how something so mundane as a dirty old VK could be superior to my skyline (with its racing pedigree)

he tells me its rare!!! he says its a rare car because he has had (by someone else mind you) a Buick v6 out of a VP commodore!!!

I let him know that a VK commodore is hardly a rare vehicle and that despite its power upgrade, a buick v6 is hardly a motor to brag about!

As a side note, i feel this information is relevant: This guy has never brushed his teeth in his life and they are all rotten (brown and black) at the top! He blames the lack of flouride in the Gold Coast water system... I live on the coast and i've never had a filling!!!

(side note: that DR30 is no longer my car in my sig, i now have a R32 GTSt powered by RB25)

God I have a mate like this he drives an old 1970s Valiant Charger with a 245 Hemi and EVERYTHING else is a slow piece of crap to him, ive been in the car with him when he was beaten by another mates DEAD STOCK Gemini and he gets beaten by P plater girls in Barinas all the time, yet he still swears by his Valiant being the best and most powerful car on the road and sits on everyones ass telling them to get out of the way of his muscle car.

Myself im not a fanboy to any particular car I respect anything with power and I wish thats how everyone else was im sick of bogans in their 40s yelling out "jap crap" when they go past in their auto v6 Commodores/Falcons with exhausts.

pfft i got some p plater in his dads 297kw hsv line me up a few days ago , for 297 k/w it really didnt impress me much he only got ahead by a few meters than i stopped coz i was approaching the speed limit lol

but back on topic you will call him narrow minded, he thinks the bigger the better

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • 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.
    • 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.
