Zoix, all your problems would be fairly straight forward fixes. You should give them a go your self first.

Only thing they probably wouldnt do is the speedo.... as it could be a million different things.

Fuel sender problems and window motors have been covered on here and SDU a number of times tho.

well atm i have been working 7 days a week, because all this shit coming in to australia for x-mas and we been exporting commodores to nz from here, also all the riveria bost to usa(****ing 1.2 million speed boats)

its been flat out and i have had a look, but really get do anything beacuse i also havent got a license. so its hard to get to that place in capalba to get parts(its like 2kms from my house).

so yeah rather pay someone to fix it then get home after a 18 hr shift have to be at work after 10 hr break and get hom to fix my car :(

I do believe SDU is Skylines down under.

Gavin was really nice when after all these props on here I took my car to him just for a service. Really impressed with his ability to tell you to go home and do it yourself. other guys would do it so more dollars go in their pockets.

and he was saying something about a nissan machine he has so it can read all the error codes that can come up in the car computer or something like that. anyone know more?

It's a Consult Machine.

Gavin is the only other person I know of, beside Nissan Australia that are LEGALLY allowed to have these machines. They are worth emormous amounts of money and they do their job perfectly. If something with your car isn't running right, he will hook this machine up to see whats going on.

My car is data streamed everytime I go down there.

Well, I have heard many good thing about Gavin Woods, from here and other random locations. His name always seems to crop up in a positive light. I hope this is all true as I shall drop my car in there tomorrow (hopefully) as it has shat the crank case seal big time and is spraying oil everywhere. They seemed good to talk to on the phone so he is off to a good start!!

Wow, $100-150 isnt too bad, I know my dads commo normally is about that, and thats taking it to a pretty good mechanic up in brisbane (just normal cars tho) I think it will be worth taking my 1/2 skyline down to see him then :D

He's built many skylines for Skyline Import at Loganlea. The guys names Ernie. Gavin has buit him many cars actually. Including a GTS-t with all GTR parts (IIRC) including all guards and stuff. Also a stagea. And every other car that Ernie has built for Zoom magazine, Gavin has done.

    • 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
