Sorry about late reply, but i have an excuse! I've been driving everywhere :P

Nah its not a GTR (cause i'm 19), got a gts-t. GTR when i'm 21 maybe.

Everything is good.

I'll get pics up when i get em.

Only thing is when the heating/aircon is on there is like a double knocking noise coming from the engine (sounds a bit like a heart beat...) every 5 seconds or so and the idle drops to like 300...

Hope its not a big problem but i wanna get it fixed asap. Not sure what it could be, it sounds like its coming from the erea around the pod filter (although its obviously not the pod... unless its resting on something it shouldn't, cause me and my mates put it on...).

Any ideas what it could be?

Let some of my commodore mates drive it and they are jealous!!! :(

Loving it :)

course he is... he just got his first R32 :D

man i remember those days... oh how i miss those late night drives to anywhere but nowhere in particular.

That's the first thing I want to do when I get my licence. Just drive around with no destination in mind. I can't wait, only 4 months to go!! Too bad it won't be in the 32 though :cheers:

Yep, petrol prices are fair high these days, although I full tanked my skyline the other night, cost me about $55, but had about 1/4 tank (15L) in there already..

Thats paying about 1.28c/L of high octane fuel. My car is pretty good on fuel though, depends how/where you drive it :action-smiley-069:

Make sure you always fill good fuel in it, very important!!

    • 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
