While I remember, just a word of warning...

For those thinking of driving down from Sydney, I wouldn't recommend taking the Skyline...

For the last few years, the local constabulary from Goulburn and their buddies from both the EPA and RTA have taken pleasure in setting up a 4 day blitz/defect station at the Marulan heavy vehicle checking station on the Hume Hwy.

Basically they pull over anything that looks remotely modified and go over it with a fine tooth comb with the bastards dishing out the defects like all their Christmas's have come at once.

My brother copped $800 worth of relatively minor/stupid defects on his car on the Friday morning and the place was chock full of cars when I passed it early on the Sat morn (fortunately I didn't take the line!).

No doubt they'll be there again this year, so be careful...

ahh damn.... hopefully i find another car to take down otherwise it will make it 2/2 summernats that i get fined for something.

yeah good idea reddrifter. we should get something organised.

any of you guys that arent staying with family or anything booked accomodation yet?

OMG!!!!! :O

Thanks for the warning :thanks:

That would start your weekend off so badly getting a defect :D

Well lucky as werent planning to take the skyline going to take the normal car and will have 4 of us in it as well..

Definatly want to meet up with most of you guys at a pub or have dinner somewere together :happy:

If anyone knows a good pub or resturant??? Or I might go hunting myself let me know and I will organise something for us so we can all meet up prob the saturday night would be best for us as we are getting down there Friday sometime :)

Saturday is the best day at the showground from 9am till about 1am that nite. Watch all the events etc throughout the day then at night time the main show is on in the arena and then the adult entertainment begins live on stage at midnight.

:D:thanks::happy:

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
