wow that went really smoothly,

i was secretly expecting delays and the like..

do you know if we got the orange or the black?

cheers

Karl

if you only knew what happened my end! some strongly worded but polite phone calls from me requesting updates, confirmation of fund transfer, shipment date - etc.

i've requested the black for everyone, if we get it then bonus - if not then it'll be the 'coby orange'. it just depends if they have any paint in stock.

i have called coby directly and asked them what paints they are using. they have told me that they ARE NOT using HIGH TEMPERATURE paint. the paint is merely for rust, storage and aesthetic reasons.

i personally advise everyone to strip the paint back and go over it with caliper/high temp spray cans or get them hp coated like i have. leaving the coby paint shouldn't do any harm either.

please be patient with christmas delivery. some of you guys might be lucky and get them early, some might get them in the new year.

regardless all buyers have always received them.

I wish i had mine today i was really hoping to get them :P . i really hope now there here wednesday beofre i go out of the counrty ;) so there black thats good to hear merry christmas everybody hope all goes well for everyone

hey got mine fitted today went on sweet took away alot of the rasp i used to get about 2500rpm-3000rpm.

just want to know hwat type of setup are people running on there car mine is just stock with the extractors my stock pipe is 2.5'' so i didnt have to change that

You will all have to tell me how your extractors go guys, mine are still sweet, glad i got HPC coating, just wondering i got a hi-flow cat on my system, do you think i would be losing any power considering its a 3" cat, he just downed it to my 2.5" system i got, would i have got any power increase at all?

Also gotta get it fixed, either the muffler or cat is rattling under there like a B&$%#. Does anyone notice a sucking noise from extractors, or air noise?

Also any difference in havin a resonator or muffler on your system, he put muffler on before the cannon, but last system i got on my old car he put a resonator, sorry im a noob

Anyone thinking of starting this group buy again? I need one :) its $345 to deliver without a group buy mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....................
I'm in for sure if theres another group buy :down: , is there another group buy for these any time soon???
Yeah ill be in for another group buy?

PM me if we are starting again Eug

unfortunately there won't be another one without significant interest.

as much as i'd like to help you guys out again, i've run 4 of these buys already and each time it has been more money and effort on my part than anything. now that i'm an sauqld exec, moderator and in my final year of uni i have other obligations to fulfill.

if there are enough people to make it feasible then we shall see.

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • 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.
