hey mate

nice clean ride and i like the gramlights for somthing different. they suit it.

im a big fan of the garden edging. on one of the bars i used it on i added some brackets to kick the rear out to blen in with the wheels a little.

yeha everyone loves the bunnings lip.....so cheap for the results it is great....

i like the bracket idea DJrift....as they do pull in quite a bit......i guess it shows the wheel width of a bit....

plans for the car is to be of a all rounder.....i really really enjoy drifting so that will be the main focus.......70% drift, 29% circuit 1% drag..

ill only go to the drags with a few friends for some fun....i would love to slide it every oppurtunity i get......

little update

ok lowered it a little more in the front.....about 2 cms...not much....but it was just a trial so i know how much adjustment on the coilover gives me how much more low in regards to body moving downward....

here are some quick pics...

big updates coming....

It's running well. Needs injectors and PFC installed and tuned. Is gangsta now. On actuator boost it runs better then the standard turbo on 14psi.

Is fun.

The modified water line is a bit dodgy ATM. Had to cut the original water line and clamp the new flexible line to it. Needs a flare.

Have a look at Nistune...Ap-Engineering RB20 PFC's are pretty rare these days

Alright haven't updated in a little bit.

Sold a few bits and pieces off. Including PFC, AFM and injectors. Needed the money for a overseas trip me and my girl are going on.

On another note. Car is booked for unigroup this coming Friday. For a timing and boost tune.

If your interested in buying my gram lights get at me as I'm currency considering selling them and getting some r33 GTR wheels.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?
