Ah, it's only really the centre console - from the description I thought he meant the whole dash.

A pic from a couple years ago - haven't taken many other of the dash, got some vid of trying to figger out how to use the A/C though. :)

i am aware of that, usually wheels with yellow strips are perfectly round. if you look at the 430 wheel it is very clear where the wheel needs to be for the car to go straight. its just some funny supercar wank... like starter buttons.

Bah - Start buttons are cool

BTW - Ryan you would have heard the rattling exhaust yesterday... the whole bracket had snapped. Good old Fiat build quality.

Some nice cars at Ferrari today too - about 5x Gran Turismos, a 599, a couple of Scags, a 550 Superamerica and yet another F40. Cool!

yeah, i still think they are cool, but they are still wank :blink: especially in the rs4 with the launch sequence.

and yeah, heard the rattles, it must be a bridging thing between all the fezzas. its not real unless it rattles.

Also at Ferrari are some lovely rare machines in Rosso Corsa...

550 Superamerica, 599 and the best of all... F40!

* plus our Melbourne Ferrari's having a drink at Shell. Lots of noise as we went up Punt Rd :huh:

There are quite a few Gran Turismos undergoing pre-delivery at the moment.

They are simply stunning!

They're awesome looking cars. I saw one on the road when I was in Italy, I think I nearly snapped my neck trying to get a glimpse of it!

Spotted this today while working a cilents house....

It's a 1971-2 Aston Martin DBS V8

Details of it are here...

http://www.astonmartins.com/v8/dbsv8.htm

This car was in mint condition, the pics don't do it justice....and it sounded like the world was ending when it (eventually) started. The owner told me he was the 3rd owner and all the miles on it were original!!

The poor thing hasn't been started for over 2 months, so there was a little smoke, but geez it sounded so nice.... and it just looked so sexy. He also told me he dosen't drive it much, as he only get about 10 miles to the gallon :D I had to decline a drive due to work :x :cry: :cry:

    • 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?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
