well as you can see the road is poorly managed and repaired, my car is over the legal ride height (100mm, i am at 110mm) and i just spoke very nicly to them. they said sent details and pictures explaining what happened...and why.

they will send it all off to the insurance department and sort it all out...i mean they could refuse it, but normally one would think that they would just brush you off rather than at least say please send the details through to our insuarnce department. after all tyhey are in the wrong here and road maintenence with what we pay taxes etc for!!!

im hoping so cause my car may need to be in a movie by the 16th oh june but dont know if its confirmed yet....

at least the council did say that their insurance will sort it all out!

Aww Ouch!!

Could always go for that "drift" look, cable tie stitches maybe an option if not repaired in time :blink:

Gotta love Sydney roads!

Mate my paint's ratty on the guard lip, rubbers arent the best around the windows, big dent above the drivers side window.

Don't stress too much. It's a club stand to promote the club :P Just come up with a nice story like "you did it on one of the SAU trackdays" :banana:

LOL if I entered my current car it would look farked as!! Unlucky there mate, pretty sure I saw your car the other week parked at the top of Bridge Road in Hornsby, with you checking out something at the front? Looked very nice.

Hey Doof, Dennis was having a go at the guys responsible for the heater hoses being delivered today so it looks like they should arrive tomorrow, then it's just waiting on the guards and the interior being reinstalled. Reckon I might just make it!! Also, could I get that money off you soon please, I have a rather large bill coming up :P

Yeah I actually want to give it to you this weekend before I go out on Saturday night incase I decide to blow it away in the city... But with packing and moving house and shit, I'm going to be busy as... would you be able to come down to my area or something???

Yeah I can do that, I'm free Friday or before 6pm on Saturday.

Oh and if you know anyone who wants an R33 gearbox a Mines-chipped ECU or a set of 17s with good rubber, let me know :P

Need to get as much cash together as I can. Can't believe the car has been done so quick, with other projects in the shop too!

Yeah Dennis has always been one of the fastest workers I know... First time I met him, did an engine swap in my brothers RA22... from 1GGZE Supercharged to 1GGTE twin turbo with cooler... that was like 4 years ago before he even had a workshop!

Old smaller charger

AAAAND I have no pics of the TT :banana:

Man I miss that car ;)

That is probably an RA23 or a TA23 (depending upon what engine was originally in it). Great looking package. I have always loved them since I was a kid...rebuilt an 18RG'd TA23 years and years ago.

Zilch...I know someone chasing an R33 GTS-t box...what do you want for it?

how much do you want for the ecu?

im thinking its time i bought a new one :P

Does that 9 include me? Because that will be an even 10 then.

Hoses arrived today, gauges are all wired up since last night, rest of the engine will now be finished. The guards arrive on Monday so the interior will be re-installed in the meantime. Once the guards are here I have to get engineered, blue slip, rego etc and paint.

    • 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?
