Hey guys,

Just thought id let you all know that im not happy at all. Yesterday some ass hole, stole one of my rays wheel nuts. Now im left with a wheel that is missing a sexy blue nut :wave:

Im so pissed coz i cant find anywhere to buy a replacement, so im going to have to buy the entire set.

i dont get why people do this crap, its so annoying...

Thats really lousy Mass :worship: what happened to the good old days where people used to steal P plates or tyre valve caps?? :nyaanyaa:

Would you bother putting a lock nut on each rims to balance them all??.. saves you buying a whole set :yucky:

yeh i know, i cud handle the valve but a nut thats just annoying... The wheels already have the rays lock nuts, so i need the normal wheel nut, otherwise id have 2 lock nuts on the wheel haha

thats f**ked.

if you catch these f**kers make sure you get a nut back.

lol

mass, if you buy a set, I'll take the security nuts off you (and the socket/key), as the compliance workshop smashed my secuirty nuts to change the wheels, and I have 4 regular blue rays nuts on each of my wheels. annoying really.

Unlucky Mass

Someone stole one of my red Work nuts on my Skyline too.

Had to order another $200 set just to replace it.

Took 4 of the nuts and sold the other 16 to some Silvia 4-stud guy so I got some of my money back. Major inconvenience though.

    • 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
