Tilbrooks have closed down in the past

They then reopened and looks like they are now shutting down again?

Yeh i change my jocks quite often also........... Oh hang on wrong thread..... :thumbsup::)

Nah seriously tho they have been around for quite some time, must be a solid reason for them to be closing, never actually took my car there as i use Boosties, but good luck to Mark and whatever he decides to do!!

IT'S OFFICIAL TILBROOKS IS CLOSED AT ELM ST AND RELOCATING TO ANOTHER LOCATION AS OF 31/07/08

I have spoken to Mark today and he asked me to say;

I would like to thank all those that have supported me over the years I really appreciated I have enjoyed working on your cars it and loyalty means alot to me.

I would like to wish everyone good luck in the future.

I will be doing Custom work and Building Race cars from another location, as I have found employing people to to work at my work shop has not been benificial for me or my customers so that is why i have made this decision to lease out my premises and relocate to personaly do the work for my customers myself with the best contractors and same great suppliers, I will still be listed in the yellow pages, Thankyou once again!

But on a better note Chad and I have nothing to worry about as Chad said befor we are still having Mark work on our cars :D

    • 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?
