Just found my v35 rims sitting on the doorstep in plain view of the who street, good one stupid courier driver.

just test fitted them and for some reason i dont think i will need spacers on the rear which makes no sense because my 17 x 8 35 offset would not

fit but the 18 x 8 30 offset does ?????????? its only 5mm difference mind you i havent put any rubber on them yet but only been 235 they wont over hang so we will have to

wait and see what happens.

And the the rims arn't in as good condition as i thought they would be, so i might have to give them a cut and polish or re painted.

they look bloody tough and i cant wait to get every thing sorted.

nope

Can you get that stuff in gold....that way it will go with the yellow and you wont see it :happy:

gold would actualy be better because its better at reflecting heat than silver (hence why a mclaren has a gold lined engine bay)

like i said, it doesn't look fancy but you can feel the difference in temperature inside the foam to outside and also quetens down the spool noise a bit too

Got my car back, nice and fixed :P

Also just put a deposit on one of the last 24U blocks made: brand new, and still wrapped: let the engine build begin!!

not going Rb30. . . . disappointed Micah

There is a nice RRR rb26 block on yahoo. . . big $$ thuo

RB26 is what my old man had in the car: RB26 is how I have to keep it - if not for sentimentality, I'd be looking at 3L immediately. With correctly matched turbo and better management, I'm confident it will be what I want it to... Besides, I got the N1 block for a steal!

If you want to keeps yours on the road, I will have a spare rb26 head to sell soon.

N1 block should be sweet. What turbos you going to run?

I just spent 2.5 days polishing mine. Far out, these cars are waaaay too big to polish. Looks great now. Ended up hitting the small scratches with Meguires Scratch X, then did the whole thing with Mother's Clay Bar and then Meguires Gold Class, then Mother's Back to Black on the roof racks and other black bits. Far out what a day!! Kinda ran out of time to do the windows and then take photos before the sun went down :(

My wideband AFR meter arrived today at 3pm, but I had no time to fit it :wub: Back to work tomorrow for 2 weeks, so it'll have to wait a while :wub:

Tried the unique auto sports brake upgrade on the s2 this week . I have to say they do not work on stags . Looking at making my own kit . This will be able to use 324mm disc and the sumitomo 4 pots . Direct bolt on no mods . Have to check on brake lines once on car . Will be out to see a "CAD" man tomorrow . Looking at two different set ups maybe 330mm will fit aswell . Will keep all posted.

booking the car in with chequered tuning (status)to put a nistune in tomorrow should be done by the end of the month as there busy so will have the extra killawasps just in time for deca

very surprised it didn't fit - every skyline brake bit I've put on mine bolted straight on....I've run gtr front and rear brakes on it now?

what was the problem, did the adapter hit on something? Either way Im sure UAS will refund.

+1 on this....I fitted 324mm rotors using R32 GTR callipers with the brackets they supplied me with only a slight mod.

Had a busy week

New front and rear brake disc, pads, braided lines and rebuilt r34 calipers and painted in 2pac

Engine covers painted in 2pac

Greddy copy inlet manifold

650cc injectors and new fuel rail and Sard FPR

Z32 AFM

Fuel pump 13.2V direct feed

New alloy radiator

Next week

GTR BOV

Mod intercooler piping and exhaust

Tune Nistune ecu

Re-assembly front end of car

When time premits parts waiting to go in

Defi 3 DIN gauges

Evo 8 recaro's

GTR front sway bar

Adj caster and camber arms and bushes

Minor stereo upgrade

N1 block should be sweet. What turbos you going to run?

looking at a decent sized single: T04/GT35 or similar with a modified head, single throttle body and mildish cams: I am gunning for midrange, and don't really car what the peak output ends up being as long as it's responsive...

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
