Hey mate congrats on the new car!

I can't beleive how much you picked it up for. I have not been keeping track on the market lately, quite amazed.

Well have fun with it, and be prepared to keep that wallet open once the mod bug bites...

Cheers

Good buy, you forgot to mention sunroof.....

if its running 11psi i would probably at the very least put an r34gtt side mount intercooler or better.... just for added piece of mind...

Correct me I'm wrong, but I'm sure you have had that Skyline for a while :)

Also, I'm pretty sure I have seen you at West Gosford Maccas once or twice :laugh:

matt you would of seen it at west gosford maccas .... mitch hardly ever comes out anymore ...... and i told him yesterday to regester on here for info about his 33

its a nice looking ride ........ mitch give me a call if you want to come out tonight then we can cruise in to the sau meet up ........

... nice looking car ... great price ! ... it wasnt long ago that 8 grand would only get you an intercooler/power fc/4 s-hand wheels & 2 seats !! ... now you get a whole car :blink:

... enjoy ... :D ...

... as a matter of interest what does the sticker on top of the timing belt cover say ? ....

look exactly the same as the sticker on my timing belt, should say 100,000k service.

..... thats exactly what i was implying .... if its got that sticker its done 100,000 klms .... you might be lucky & it hasnt done many more .... nevertheless not too worry itll be good for many many more if you service it often ... :) ...

It doesn't have a clutch fluid reservoir :)

. . . thats cool . . . the RB25DET AUTO is still pretty gutsy . . . it looks in good nic . . . 8 grands on the high side of round about right for a clean one . . . :down: . . .

. . . though i must admit id be terrified of hitting a pot hole with 20in rims . . . not a lot of rubber there between the rim & the road !!! :)

    • 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?
