got a reaper up top of my arm, started on my sleeve, still have 6 hours ahead just to finish the shading on him, but hey be worth it :D

after this is done in next fortnight focus is back on car parts again haha

On builds just acquired all my parts required to finish off my first stage of engine mods..

Doing decent service on it before ebc, cam gears and tune happens next month... Heaps keen!

What EBC did you end up going with or still deciding?

Do you still need those cam gears Ant?

what else do you need for your future -9 upgrade? i have a few parts lining around (new injectors, can prob get you my old(but new) vipec ecu cheap too)

Hey mate, don't need the cam gears anymore sorry mate, ended up getting some new tomei ones for a really good price, they turned up today.

Ah roughly for the -9 upgrade would be adding:

Turbos obviously ha

Different ecu

Injectors and pump

Clutch

Think that's about it, kinda gong/hoping for a simple but effective build.

Yea those parts sound interesting mate if they would suit the above?

What about oil pump for oil starve ant??

Don't you need lots of supporting mods in a gtr?

Yea havent looked into whats required for oil etc yet too much, i know there will probably be a few little extra supporting mods to do when the build happens.. but at this stage mainly concentrating on whats required to make my power goal, then go from there as its still quite a way off.

Not sure if i need to go crazy with it though as its not a track car, if i was making it for track then yea i would go crazy with that stuff.

Simply, but effective build list

The nismo injectors are 600cc - perfect for that power range unless your going e85. Also, I lied - It's a link G4 ecu not a vipec (essential the same) that i gave to Paul - i'll ask him if interested in selling it

100,000km service wouldn't hurt either.

Crazy - Nitto/Tomei pump, cam baffels, 8-9L race pan, race pan baffles/gates, oil restrictors turbo/head, catch can, oil cooler

moderate - billet gear replacement, sump baffels, catch-can, oil cooler, 1L overfill

basic - n1 pump, sump baffels, 1L overfill

    • 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?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
