Just amzed at the dyno day yesterday as to how many lines (and others) cruised on by without the stones to stop and shoot the breeze with fellow liners.

Are we ugly or diseased or, are they just plain chickenshit. There were a couple of nice cars among them too. :laugh:

im not sure what you mean?

Not everyone was there to run there cars. I dont see how it has anything to do with balls at all, some just didnt want to do it. And considering the area its in, it doesnt surprise me that a skyline or two thats unrelated to SAU cruised past

Noel im surprised you can still count that high in your age? :P Nah true to the point yet we dont want the wrong crowd stopping. The fact was that who was there was the point the 99% majority of which were decent people. Thats quite satisfactory in my views there

178 mark. basic mods. fmic. pipes from turbo back. apexi pod. 10 lb boost. Not a bad ground zero to start from. I saw some rides make plenty of ponies but I suspect they could be animals to drive. Plan is to finish up around the 250 rwkw mark with most of the power in a very useable range. Mod selection is gonna be the key and i am going to drive a lot of people nuts before i settle on what I want. :P

so back on topic:

this isn't a new occurence

any organised event in the public section always gets a ton of club (and other forum) drivebys

usually noobcruising, which explains the bogans in their hilarious cars showing off their exhaust noise most of the day

(that and the 30 something skylines)

Edit: For hilarious read: Piece of sh*t VK station wagon with bonnet gauges and a supercharger, hah

Loud and clear Andy. I know that sound too well. :D

even some of the ppl i met there for the first time needed to strut their epeens by revvving off after the dyno.

but meh.. you get that i guess. me.. it got revved enough for the day so i let it idle nicely out... then it has a 300km drive @110kmh

so it got to stretch its legs

I was there for a look and was going to give my car a run, but $50 for a five minute run nah. The staff looked like they had enough they were not very friendly or helpful anyway.

And after a 300v motul oil change the day before you dont have much spending money left over lol.

People are just shy?

Honestly, this is a stupid issue to be brought up, we have nothing to hide, and there were no unwanted parties showing up, who cares that people are curious? anyone who is participates in this club is welcome, as also to those curious......

honestly who gives a crap!? ;)

      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)

      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?
