Such a shame for two young men to die.

But how could they be doing those speeds in that place at that time? Particularly with the fact a relative died there in similar circumstances.

Such a shame, such stupidity and such an unnecessary loss of life.

RIP.

i hate hearing about stuff like this i know what its like to be in a bad car accident when a cement truck ran a stop sign and we hit him at about 100km/h i was with my family but luckily we all survived. and being in one changes alot of things because you know exactly how easy they happen and how bad it is to actually be in one.

the sad thing is this isnt the last time we will hear about something like this.

ey GTRBOS....my condolences go out to you, the deceased and their families.

Comments aside, we should all take this as a lesson that that behaviour should stick to the track and only the track. We've all done something stupid with our cars no doubt and its very unfortunate that two lives were lost in this particular case.

Statistics say that 1 in 8 young male drivers die in road accidents....thats pretty much 1 person in your group of friends.

So sad, so f*kd. Lets all play it safe out there aiiite

Hope you are holding up well mate, keep ya head up :D

WTF? 1 in 8 young male drivers die on the road???? That sounds way too high. So out of the 42,000 SAU people, let's say 40,000 of them are guys.

That means 5,000 of us, on this forum, will die in car accidents, while we're "young" (I guess < 35 y.o.).

Actually, make that more than 5,000, as it's fair to say Skyline drivers have a higher probability of being in lethal accidents compared to the young male driver general population just by virtue of our cars being quick.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?
