so stadium drift was amazing!

entered street class with 5 other cars. most of them looked like track hacks not street cars but was still good fun, and i learnt a shit load.

friday practive was a bit dodgy with the weather track went from wet to dry a few times throughout the day, so was weird gettin used to the changin conditions.

saturday was perfect weather. sun was out, not to hot not to cold.

laurel performed beautifully all weekend right up untill the free expression session where the rack finally f**ked out.

i believe its worn the teeth out as the steering wheel moves a long way with the wheels not doin a hole heap. and i have more lock turnin right then left.

engine also decided it prefers its oil on the out side as it pumped about 4 litres of oil through the rocker cover breather.

and its been low on compression for a while now.

so i will be rebuilding the 20 and finding a new rack in the near future.

all in all i spent a shit load of money, melted a few pairs of tires, broke some stuff and have a freaking awesome weekend.

pics as promised. will post more as the photographers put more up.

well the engines coming out this weekend.

will be gettin stripped down and then parts will be ordered as needed on advice from the engine builder.

im tryin to decide if i should spend the money on gettin bigger cams. i keep hear very mixed reports on them.

opinions?

Yep I decided last night whats the point.

25 will make the same figures I want easier and with less money spent.

Now to find a 25 locally.

And work out how to make it run.

Anyone got a link to the wiring that needs to be done for this?

Engine found!

Picking up a series 2 rb25 engine package.

Less then 70k on the engine. Still in a running r33 which is auto and the most stock 33 ive ever seen.

Hopefully picking it up next week.

Runs amazingly. Never seen an rb idle so smoothly. No smoke. Revs smoothly. No noises.

Time to start pullin the 20 out.

    • 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?
