Hmmm, seeing as I think it was 3 days we actually lost, and who knows how many posts went up into the ether.. i decree that henceforce we need to decide upon a name to celebrate the loss of SAU time and data that just "disappeared" in such a tragic loss.. just like 9/11, the titanic...and that time when I dropped a whole 700ml bottle of Vodka, and other great tragedies of our time.

How about "The Big Post Holocaust" or TBPH for short?

Other Suggestions?? :)

I am putting together an international terrorist taskforce to uncover the goings on over the last few days...

We have credible information something extrememly geeky went wrong and many of us were affected...

As a courtesy to the posts lost and their families I ask that respect is shown when talking about this malicious loss...

Should you have any information relating to this unforgivable terrorist act, please call the taskforce.

Well a month called Mercedonius was invented by the romans when they found out that they were loosing time. Mercedonius was about 22 days long and as a result of this they ended up with one year that had 445 days. Later on in medieval times this was reversed as they didn't like the Julian Calendar system, causing many people around the world (bak then) to miss out on 22 days of their lives. farken mercidonius...

Funnily enough the greeks were adament they din wanna change back and they held on to this calendar system till 1923...

I'm now a dribbling mess.

My medical bills are going straight to the SAU admins.

Thats 15 hours of therapy @ 55 p/h inc. gst= $825

Prescriptions for:

Lithium = $85

Zanax = $67

Percodan = $78

Temazapam = $43

Nurofen = $10.45

Not to mention all the calls I made to phone sex lines because I was stressed.

135 calls = $1549.35

5 visits to The Boardroom

5 x 2 hours at $350 p/h = $3500. Hang on, I do that each week anyway so I won't bill SAU for that

Lets see, that all comes to:

$2657.78 in Therapy. anti-depressant phamaceuticals and phone relief.

I'll happily take a cheque.:D

Due to the loss of SAU over the last few days, I (like James) got so much more work done.

I actually left the office on time the last couple days.

I think we should call this time of loss "Productivity" :D

Dammit the thread bout my car is gone :)

So very glad that the short run of 'productivity' is over. I was talking to people, reading the paper - and even leaving the building at lunchtime!

I swear It'll never happen again.

Oh - Leewah, the unfortunate loss of your thread has beed remedied :D

Yeah for sure! I mean I actually had to look at our suppliers web sites and WORK instead or trawling these forums, it was hideous. I mean now I have customers who's jobs were completed over 3 times faster than usual and now I'm going to have them expecting this ALL the time, it's just not on! ROFL!!! :D

while sau was down i had an excuse to waste a few seconds at any time when i was at home, the excuse would simply be, 'ill pop to the comp and see if SAU is back up and running, because they might need help setting it up again'.... hmm, im such an idiot :ZAP::zap::zap::zap:

    • 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...
    • 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?
