Hi guys,

RB26, JB clutch and stock flywheel

- Car has firm (but not overly hard) suspension

- Bit of a resonance issue at cruising speeds (from exhaust)

- Shifter will pop out of gear after about 5 min on the highway, or bit earlier if the road is a bit rough

What should I start looking at to fix?

Cheers...

If it happens when you back off more than likely you have a worn gear ( the one that pops out)

mine pops out of the tops gears, i have removed the gearboot and it helped for a while, but it still does it does that means the gears are destroyed? it maybe the 300rwkw goin through it though lol....

Yer you'll be looking at replacing the synchro hub assembly mate...won't know for sure until you pull apart the box but those are the symptoms that usually go with it. In a way it's good because there's no bullshit bandaid solution like using a different grade oil to silence problems, forcing you to repair it properly hehe :D

Bout $1000 to recondition it mate, plus the labour of pulling the gearbox out / installing it again. Oops, I just realised you aren't the OP that I originally addressed my questions to lol. Same problem anyway...

    • 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?
