not personally but the cops know who did the damage firstly so i'd assume its the same guy. theres lots a red tape and that shit. but i'd love to meet the guy "for a beer"

when my dad was younger he had a red lotus in the UK. someone scratched it all the way around the pannels and wrote SIHT on the roof.

he got it resprayed black but he never felt happy about the car after that and sold it :(

its horrible that people can do things like that.

Hey Kel - sad to see this happen, Ryan and I were shattered when you told me!

I do miss that car hey, even with his old shitty white bits he had character ^.^ To see him go from that to what he is now, you have done really well, im glad you kept the car.

I had my 32 keyed in a few places on a few separate occasions, people just dont give a crap. I'm paranoid about leaving my car out the front of any house, just over-protective I guess :)

Here's to moving on, and hoping to hell that Karma works.

Hooned ( for two Bunny hops WTF!!! ), Impounded, Lost my licence, Arrested, and lost my BF - Thats all there is to it...

Cars back now with out the yellow sticker.. i dont want to talk about it. Sorry guys :thumbsup:

What I have learned

Nice cars can never be owned! they always end up owning you!

To be different means to attract attention; both good and bad attention!

If you can afford to own a one off car,

You need security, you need somewhere safe to park it "garage' and you need to realise that

to some people your car is a great achievement but to others its a big smack in the face - to something they dont have!

Part and parsel of owning a unique car is that yes its a target to some and yes it will cost you an arm and a leg to keep unique and in top condition but hey if it didnt then the meaning behind owning these cars would be lost.

sorry to hear...

if its metallic and has flake its hard to match up... the colours have a "flip" where the colour changes from different angles... and depending on how its sprayed (pressures and angle affect the way the metallic particles stand on the panel)... the only real ways around it are to either respray the whole car, blend into the other panels or put up with a slightly off colour...

thats why i dont like metallics.. or flakes and pearls.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • 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.
