i'm lost...what stripes do u like?

LOL, any stripes as long as they dont take attention away from the car itself, only add to it!

wish mine would come up better in photos, but the gold pearl just doesn't for some reason!

Sorry, a bit off the topic, what is the type/name of the front bar on the 33 GTSt (silver with the grey stripes) RRAGE posted? Damn that front bar is sexy!

i wouldn't mind knowing what those skirts are either...

black does look superb...when it's clean. :( Trouble is, keeping it clean - I was constantly washing and waxing my black R33  :(

true that! spent heaps of time on mine when it was black.. but it would only stay clean for about an hour :)

i love the limited edition midnight purple II on R34 GTR's. Its sorta chameleon gold to dark purple... looks nuts.

Also like subtle shade differences in decals eg If I had a silver car I'd choose a decal that was 20% darker than that. with black cars the reverse applies, 20% lighter.

I hate stripes on cars that aren't meant to have stripes, ie most jap cars. Stripes are a heritage thing, moderna's have stripes, mustangs have stripes, they're meant to be earnt by heritage and class. Smack a stripe on a honda and it looks out of place.

Subtlety is the best design feature ever. I also go ga-ga for deep black paintjobs that are uber shiney n glossy that it looks like glass.

I'll pay that... the mines stripe or the nismo stripe (or even the winfield stripe) is heritage... but they're stripes down the top of the side panels, or drift stripes as they are known now (since most major tuners in japan have their stipe colour schemes) from mines to jun to signal...

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • 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...
    • 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.
