Hey all, Just need some advice / Opinions on picking out a r34 GTT here are a couple.

Car 1

Car 2

Prob more to come.

Cheers.

they both look good. only comment id make is regarding redline shockproof gear oil - its made for gearboxes without synchros, when it gets used in a synchromesh gearbox it has a tendency to wear the synchros faster than usual - the redline non-shockproof stuff is pretty decent by all accounts but I only use mineral oil in the gearbox as per nissans recommendation

-D

If you are after a super tough 4 door R34 PM "Evil34" - local guy and car. He is looking at selling soon and would be well worth a look!

indeed and a 4 door bears a tiny bit less po-po attention, esp when its without a spoiler

-D

I disagree Damo - I NEVER once was pulled over in 3 years of my R34 being my daily. and it was lowered, running on Gram Lights and had a GTR style front bar.

thats because u play stuff like shannon noll at full volume

cops know ur not a hoon

-D

Yeah id have to kinda agree, i havent been pulled over randomly in the time i have had ownership. Guess i was exaggerating a little :)

But i do disagree with a 4 door bearing lesser attention.

I dunno - when I first bought my R34 sedan 3 years back, I'd get pulled over every coupla months for a 'random breath test' or 'license check' ...

It doesn't happen so much these days, not entirely sure why... One cop did say that 'oh wow, its a sedan - nice' when he had pulled me over - does suggest they don't really notice, just see the Skyline badge/stove-top lights. That said, I don't seem to see as many police these days either (besides the undercover cop that sat up my ass for 10 minutes on Friday afternoon on the way home from work, trying to force me to speed - been meaning to call in his license plate as hoon actually, the way he was sitting up peoples asses, weaving in and out of traffic & sitting on 80kph on Grange rd ...)

Yeah id have to kinda agree, i havent been pulled over randomly in the time i have had ownership. Guess i was exaggerating a little :)

I've been pulled over twice in all the time I've driven the gtr as a daily

both times it was licence check, rego check and breatho

then they let me go. *shrug* maybe its the suit

-D

+1 :)

I got pulled over once in 2yrs since i had it for a quick license check and let go.

This was with huge wheels, slammed, stretched tyres etc.

Only when i put the cage in i got reamed lol

100% Redline is in use in my car , shockproof is for diff, it's too slippery for synchos to mesh(hence you will trash the synchro's). you have to use MTL or the proper weight oil in tranny ...!!!

and it's the only oil approved for F18 engines if your into trivia

I could recommend it over crap mineral oil, try and pour the two side by side in cold weather,or check the temp drop in all applications when you use Redline... :whistling:

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
