Hi all,

As I've stated in topic title Im a late starter in the skyline class.

I brought a r34gtt 1999 model from a young family friend,love the car.

Many many years ago I had xui's L34's,then went to alfa's.I have 2 gtv's

mid 80 models v6 and 2,lt.I must say the gtt is an absolute beauty of a car.

I want to tidy up a few things on the car.audio,suspension etc,thought I would join up and make some new like minded freinds.

All your knowledge of these wonderful cars astounds me.

I look forward to chatting with you in the future.

Kindest regards to all.Butch(Glenn)

Hi all,I hope im responding correctly here either as a group,or am I supposed to respond individualy,please let me know.

As for the fiery demise of butch54 in a smoke laden alfa,na did'nt happen.(not yet anyway)but i am hearing you.

As for photos,I'll do my best in the near future to post some.As i've stated prior I'm new to this type of thing and I'm not sure how its done.

(posting photos I mean)I'm not that bloody old.

While I've got you here, can somebody tell me where I can get some rear inner guard plastics with screws and fixings etc.

Good second hand with no splits would be great.Take care all .Kindest regards butch54(Glenn)

Hi there BoyWhoCriedWolf,its amazing what one can do with a thousand liters of fire retardent foam in a car.

The wiley part is wearing goggles and a snorkle and still driving somewhat safely.

Take care friend,regards Glenn (butch54)

      Starting again

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
