Well I thought this would be pretty appropriate for this section :D

I really just dont like blingy skylines... I bought mine to drive not look at (though I have to admit ive added a few mild aesthetic modifications) :D

i agree man. my car is built for a purpose and not looks!

:pirate:

hmm make a skyline ugly.

- 95% of the time Chromies look terrible. Change that to ANY NON-Jap Rims

- Bodykits that increase the overall height of the car (from bottom of panels to roof) without increasing the width. (infact. most aftermarket kits for skylines dont really grab me)

- T wing spoilers, unless we are talking about a fairly serious time attack Skyline.

- Vinyl Graphics / Airbrushing

- Too low. i.e dumped on its guts. (starts to lose the performance look imo)

- My basic conclusion. Every car has its strengths and weaknesses. And Skylines are not made to be "pretty". There body shape to me (and im sure lots of people will agree) is best suited for a tough "race" look.

Luke.

Kits are good as long as you change rims to 18s or 19s

Chrome rims are good as long as they are jap

wings can look good if they are a GTR wing

And if we all have stock looking skyline its just like owning a commodore

VERY HOT LINES

ugly lines are ppl that own stock colour lines and put 20inch chrome on them with big stupid gauges when its a stock engine and i hate ppl that go cheap with ozzy spec wheels lol

Hrmm, what makes a skyline ugly...

Big ricey chrome wheels, wheels that don't fill out the guards enough, big bollocks off body kits that aren't needed and probably a huge ass wing as well. Even on a race car, it looks ugly (but the car wasn't build to look good, so those with big wings on their race cars shouldn't be offended :pirate: ).

you know there is such a thing as being built for purpose (decent track handling) and still looking a bit show, just depends how you do it....

+1

This is the way im building my line,custom paint,19s,full kit,gtr wing,cf bonnet,audio,retrim in black laether but at the same time full forged built motor, handling,cooling the lot witch is what i think makes a perfect car

Oooo I think this is a bit of a touchy subject..

I've got 4 doors because I have kids (2 boys and a baby girl)... it's a bitch having a coupe when you've got kids.. not like I can send them back where they came from.

I have a giant carbon fibre shopping trolley wing.. was on the car when I bought it.. but I don't mind it.

Everyone is different.. and I like to be different.. I don't want my R34 to be the same as every other R34.. Besides.. it's easy to find in the car park..

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
