hey everyone u may remember me as having an r34 4 door non turbo...... with the big f**k off blue stereo in the boot (see attached files) well due to lack of a snail sitting in my engine bay i have sole this particular vehicle ($20000) and gone and bought myself an R33 GTST with full nismo GTR kit 19" ROH DRIFT R rims and APEXI cat back stainless exhaust, also featuring tein super street coilover suspension with EDFC (around $2700)... i saw it sitting in the yard fresh off the boat fell instantly in love lol, i walked in and said ill take it...... took it for a run and instantly felt the difference in power and handling. (the salesman flicked the ass end sideways when we pulled out of the yard lol..... just put a FMIC from justjap on over the weekend and again pushed the performance up another level and sounds insane also just waiting for my stereo to be installed and once its all in will be getting more mods including bigger turbo, ecu, blow off boost controller and all the usual mods here are some pics attached let me know what y'all think (also attached are some pix of the old 34 just to jog ya memory)

heavy or not those rims still have trouble sticking too the road many a time i have just tramped it and ass end slides out and leaves a trail of smoke that would make a rev head proud...... lol. and as far as the badges go i cbf taking them off...... and i dont run ppl for the exact reason that they may beat me no real point running ppl when u know its still a stocker and u dont have the power behind u to beat a worked vehicle..... also i dont need to prove anything to anyone about whether its quick or not its my car im happy with it the way it is and if ppl wanna cry about my badges i just tell the truth it came from japan like that so i dont care lol.... but i am spewing about the rims as well it had on it originally 5zigen 18in lightweight racing rims on it...they were f**kin sexy but it just came off the boat and the yard wasnt selling them with the car so unfortunately i ended up with these rims..... they not bad but would have preferred the 5zigens...... the car looks the goods im happy with it

    • 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?
