you must gotten unlucky dude. i've got a D90, it's been out in the rain, dropped, abused and mroe. would have about billion shots on it and it's marching as strong as day one.

having said that, I've played with a couple of D7000 and it's a clear upgrade. Work out if you want to spend the money though. It might be the D90 is everything and more than you want.

Totally upgrade to a D7000. They actually feel really nice in your hand (I'm a canon person) and the upgraded AF and IQ is great. In the end, you sound like you're going to upgrade anyway! :)

Ended up going the D7000 :) My D90 was almost 2 years old and i really didn't want to get stuck with that technology for a few more years. Nothing wrong with the photos it took i was always blown away, but with higher IQ and Upgraded AF it just made sense. Its nice its also a little heavier and pretty much the same size with button locations so nothing to really get used to!!!!!

AF-S 35mm f1.8 is a very nice affordable lens. Would be even better on a D7000 as it takes beautiful pics on my shitty d40x.

I did have a Sigma 50mm f1.4 which was unreal, just beautiful bokeh. BUT it had a mis-focus issue with the d40x, had it replaced with a 2nd lens and same issue.

A higher spec camera can calibrate for this i was told.

I think it was focused on her chin instead of her eyes.

45degree test showed the problem

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
