I would be looking at pre-booking.... Unlike the indoor shows there is a shitload of space at SMSP so i doubt it would sell out....

Waiting on tickets at the moment, accomodation is sorted but not yet the tickets...

My cousin imported a white R32 GTR from Japan around 2005

He took me for a drive in it years ago and I remember getting thrown back in the seat due to slingshot like acceleration! This is what originally got me into imports.

Anyway, had look at some old pics of it and the chassis looked CLEAN AS and straight...

Talked to my cousin a few months ago and he had sold it to some bloke and it is sitting unused.

So going to give my cousin a call later on to get him to find out if the guy wants to sell it. Obviously I'd have to convince my dad to buy the car and it would have to pass a vigorous panel/chassis rail inspection from the panel gap professor aka me....but there is potential to get it for a BARGAIN price.

STFU Benji!

You Wicked Wing! :P

:woot:

benji you ain't buying a gtr now your trolling fs threads that don't even exist?!

just kidding let us know what happens

Giving my cousin a ring tomorrow night, and going to ask him if he could contact the guy he sold it to to see if he'd be interested in selling....

:yes:

Just really hope the freakin chassis is straight, immaculate and rust-free. My cousin said when he sold it it was really nice and had no accident history. ..but that could have changed! On the negative side if its been sitting for ages itll cost a fair bit to get back into good mechanical running condition....but then again thats an opportunity for a lowball offer to be accepted and a gtr to be in my driveway (slightly managed to convince my dad that itd be a great car for him to own given how he's retiring soon and should re-ignite his car hobby =D).

Inb4 I get a job paying well once I finish uni and transform it into a 800ps R32 GT-R wangan monster equipped with HKS V-Cam Pro and a T51R Kai

:woot:

There he goes again with the over active imagination.

Bish, you POOR!

Get a job! Work, earn, save, buy a home. Then think about toys.

Otherwise I'm going to confiscate the keys to the Tokyo two young men wanking s15

    • 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?
