New suspension is amazing. Was carrying a lot more speed through 3 and hayshed (both around 200km/hr through the middle now which is significantly faster than before).

I had a lot more confidence in what the car was doing mid corner to what it was like previous.

It was a good thing but still needs a few tweaks. Was a bit lose under brakes from big stops - but especially interesting into turn 1 and between 11 and 12! :) New wing going on Monday might help that though.

I may have done a 1.43.8 too.

Is anyone going to be posting Vids in here?

Unfortunately I'm out of the country while its on, and after going last year, I'd really love to see some footage from this year.

The website had live timing too I think last year, yeah?

Could have a wet track at times going of the forecast, also the wind speed is high...

Should make for some good driving to watch

unfortunately that will only mean even less running for the big guns - no point wasting tyres (and the car!) on a wet or damp track...

If it does rain, pray it rains all weekend and you'll see a mad dash on Saturday for the top guns trying to put in one fast lap in the afternoon. Could get quite interesting if they're not used to the circuit in the wet.

    • 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?
