Well my car has changed a bit since I bought it in 2005. I bought it for a whopping 15k!!! and it's been the best car I've every owned. We've come a long way...

No plans on going anywhere or changing cars. Really the 32 GTSt (admitedly the 33 GTSt also) is one of the cheapest ways to get into motorsport. Even in standard form with a few mods they are bullet proof, relatively fast and easy to modify.

I remember one of my first decas there was a sea of black 32s,

BigBird, Rylan, Sam and me. The black 32 brotherhood. These days it's only been me and Pat.

Rylan and Sam have disappeared.

haha black 32's represent!

haha hows your r32 doin? Last time i saw it (i think?) was when Rylan did that weird motorkhana in the grass/dirt!

You guys should band together and make R32 GTS-t hoodies :thumbsup:

haha, prob not enough people around to cover the costs :(

Yeah 34 GTT brakes are a great option. Would do it again for sure. Worked well even with the abuse I gave my car.

ah nice. Ive been eyeing these but they dont have any dust boots so a bit iffy on taking the plunge...

yeah, the wilwoods dont have them and the calipers were never ADR approved etc

Would prob have to get an engineers cert for them. However these brand new wilwoods are cheaper than 2nd hand r33 gtr brembos :domokun:

My G4's don't have dust covers but who cares if they're ADR approved. Just keep your standard ones if you have to change them back.

running grids as track rims?

LOL, no. Thet are genuine TE37s. Irs because the fronts are only +28 offset and rears +35 offset tht the look gay. They acrually grow on you, especially when you see all the JGTC with flat spokes that they kind of start to feel race spec cool :) (maybe)

They are 17x9 +17 on the front and 17x10 +15 on the rear. Im running cusco zero's on the front and koni's on the rear. Not sure exactly how low they are in the rear.

I'm looking for some height adjustable coilovers to replace them though. needs more lowz..... :D

Anyone want a full set of lowered konis? or some cusco fronts?

Wish I was still part of this minority! Awesome cars, couldn't have asked for anything better in a first car. Having said that they're cheap as chips ATM, i might just get back into one next year after experiencing the joys/deep pockets of owning a GT-R.

Here she is in all her glory with my new baby; Damn I miss her :(

      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?
