Except to benji, he makes us look bad.

Must of been lulzy when people looked at the convoy of Skylines and then noticed the big fat commotank among the pack trying to blend into the scene.

People dont NOTICE commodores!! Although seeing a troll driving a car is a bit odd so maybe...............

Hahah good idea tank, I got ant dawg on board for professional detailer to look for accidents :)

Yeh i think mine may have been in a prang in japan b4 it was brought over, front drivers fender seems a little bit off, i didnt notice it when i went to inspect/pick it up from TAS, emotions got the better of me i was awed by the presence of a GTR i was about to buy :wub:. Passed mechanical inspection and turbos where checked for freeplay so all was good on that end.

Yeah, the panel gaps for R34's are usually spot on and to within a pooftenth of a millimetre.

Unequal panel gaps usually does indicate there is some underlying accident damage. Check the bolts of the panel and if they have been repainted then it means the panel has been taken off before.

Gayyyyyyyyyyyy

No i didnt get the paperwork from Japan, i know when the car was imported and by who it was brought in in 2009 buy autostyle performance in sydney, bought buy a guy in his 20s from QLD then sold to the guy in TAS in the space of 6 months of it getting into AUS. Tried to contact auto style about it, apparently they changed owners so they didnt have the details from the cars previously brought in.

Im not to fussed buy it, i had a limited amout of time to find one as i needed a car since i sold my last one, it passed all the mechanical checkes and a miss aligned panel does not rly fase me that much i can just take it to one of the shops in syd and have them take it off and align it properly. and for the price i paid im happy with it.

I've failed already, shitty socket set isn't long enough to remove one of the bolts ha

Gotta spanner ya nut?............... I mean for the nut :P

If its the one with the stud and you have no other tools try getting the socket on the nut with no extension or ratchet and go from there..............

    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
