My friend is actually well known for his GTR's/Skylines, he is a member here, but doesn't post anymore as he keeps getting harrassed for advise on cars lol.

I do talk to him quite abit, but he is busy and sometimes doesn't have time to talk and given who he is, he has hundreds of people asking him the same or similar questions, so i don't want to annoy him too much.

Its more a discussion thread more than anything, just want to see what your guys thoughts are.

is he a friend or an acquaintance (someone you know enough to say hello to)? if he is a friend then he won't care about you asking him questions, and he should be more than happy to go looking at cars with you.

as people have said, you really need to do some research. are you planning on using the car on a daily basis? if so then you may want to rethink your choice unless you are going to look very closely before buying a car. an ordinary example of a GTR is going to cost you a whole lot of money in the long run.

Facebook friend really....haven't met him yet IRL although he knows a few of my friends.

I been researching vigorously for the past week or so now on R33 GTR's, looking at common problems, maintenance, modding etc. Still undecided if i want to go with one or go with this R34 GTT i been looking at. I am torn :\.

Yes it will be my daily, mainly driving on the freeway too and from work.

Facebook friend? It's a bit like someone asking me for a phone diagnosis as to whether a headache is due to stress, bad relationship, bad neck or allergy to MSG.

R33 GTR is a great car! Ask a good Melbourne workshop listed here in the Victoria subforum to inspect any reasonable prospect for you. Better to go through $150 a time & get a goodie than to buy the wrong one and waste $2000!

Lol so all these supposed friends with gtr's turned into one that was a fb friend.

This thread brings the lolz :).

I don't want to mention his name.

Lets just say he converted a R34 NA skyline into a 700hp R34 GTR :whistling: . Guess you know who he is now....aw well lol.

Bahahaha NO!

He fully converted it into a R34 GTR. Spent around $120,000 in the process or some crazy figure like that.

sounds like good economic sense

sounds like some keyboard warrior to me, LOL

oh and FYI, he didn't fully convert it into a GTR. that is impossible. i bet that on the build plate it says that it is a NA still. and if he turned a NA into GTR and spent that much money on it, all it proves is that he's as dumb as a post.

on topic though, by the sounds of it you should go for the GT-t. it will be better suited to both what you want to use it for, and your knowledge of cars.

Jessica Alba is my fb friend and my other fb friends, Brad Pitt and Miranda Kerr have met her too. So basically I have slept with Jessica Alba and my friend, that just spent $8,000,000 'fully' converting his Hyundai into a Ferrari F40, was the one who hooked us up.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
