whoops, yeah...that's what i thought...b funny if someone reading this thought they actually needed to put in a kill switch though and went out and got one of those missile switch things installed for it...haha

yeah sorry about the misleading info there.....my timmer is hooked up to my alarm and handbrake.....and the immobiliser is a good one too....but a lot of people dont realise it and dont get the handbrake part done....which is stupid from what i think....

oh btw Ruby one of my windows takes about 5 secs to wind up so sure i could mutli task and flick all the buttons @ once and wind all windows up in about 6.5secs (when you use all motors @ once windows take a fraction longer) but i prefer to just wind each window by itself so 5sec x 4 windows = 20 secs extra from finding my car park then get my phone and wallet another 8 secs and car is ready to turn off thats assuming ive fanged the living crap out of it to the entrance of aforementioned car park

From what I remember Nissan has recommended idle times for

city, motorway, etc, before switching engine off.

I think they were roughly 1 minute for city, 3 minute for motorway.

Also on the R32 they had a rocker switch on the dash (next to

steering wheel) which has a turbo symbol on it. I presume this

was a factory turbo timer????

yrs ago when i raced turbo holden sixes at speedway tt wernt even heard of what we used to stop hot shutdowns plus if ya crashe and hit the wall at full song and the the motor stopped good bye turbo lol.

we had a litre container that the oil feed line fed into with a one way valve then it went to the turbo so waht happened when the motor was running there was always a litre of oil in the container under engine oil preassure the one way valve stoppe the oil draining it back so when the motor was turned off or stalled the oil preasure in the container would force some of the oil in the container thru the feed line to the turbo thus ensuring the turbo had oil

going thru it while it was slowing down.

u could buy some already made it was called a nycal turbo lube system and was quite expensive but after i fig out how it worked i made my own never had a turbo faliure in the next 3 seasons b4 that i was killing a turbo or 3 every season

cheers mid life crisis

    • 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?
