Go easy on the poor kid, he will learn as he gets older. Most kids are like he is around the 14 - 16 mark, after that they tend to mature a little and put some effort into it.

Oh i'm sorry, i didn't know that english skills were something that came after 20 years old?

What do you want me to say? "thats ok tiger, you'll still have no problem getting and keeping a job"?

I wasn't intentionally being mean or offensive, mostly confused.

No excuse for poor spelling! Either you don't know how or you CBF'ed (Lazy)

If it is the former, I blame the Government for not allowing the punishment I received back in the day. Listen hard and learn or you were punished.

If it is the latter, wake up to yourself. Col says spelling doesn't get you jobs?? How do you write a resume' if you cannot spell!!?? Maths may be nice to get along once you have it, but spelling gets you in the door.

How many times have I seen a judge throw a criminal case out because of a spelling error?? HEAPS!!!

I was in da 126 rcu for a few years and left due to being run by a bunch of f*&ck heads, who would premote friends and family over the people who actually put in the hard effort and learnt and could manage people. So I left because it was unfair.

Well my nickname was "G" (this was in about 95/96)

And I use a calculator if the math problem is too difficult....... your point is???

Laziness, pure laziness.

Too many pies and look what happens!!

Yeah but you can wing english... I mean i can speak...

Maths is one of those things you cannot wing, if the boss asks for figures you need to be accurate straight away and no i dont carry a calculator...

As i dont carry a spell checker either...

Anyways English vs Math is not the topic... Prego is the topic...

Go little feller, im still wating for damo's responce...

Maths is gay Col, I have never used any of the things that I was taught after about grade 5

And on the English bashing...who cares. I put a lot more effort into my resume than my posts, spelling mistakes in an internet post do not mean the guy wont be able to write a resume FFS

English Nazis >_<

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?
