cool build, great to see some nicely built 25GTt's.

definitely invest in some good tyres, coilovers and arms/bushes,will make a bigger difference to laptimes than a bit more power (though obviously you want to sort the restriction out first..)

ive got cusco arms, great build quality and got a perfect alignment with them, car feels great on the track.http://www.cusco.co.jp/en/catalog/pdf_catalogue_suspension_parts.html

nagisa auto also do a bunch of arms for R34 25GTt http://www.nagisa-auto.com/products.html

i'd order throught jessestreeter, should be able to get the stuff for a reasonable price for made-in-japan quality. my 2c.

Cheers :thumbsup:

New suspension setup & a 1.5way diff are definitely on the cards next!

I have some Hankook RS-3 ready to go on which should be good

Cheers for links! It will be helpful once I shop around for parts :)

Ended up going the dark metallic grey from a Subaru Brz.

thats a really nice colour.

+1 to endless list of things to do on car. But then again, if you ran out it would be less exciting and interesting

Ahh Leroy you and I know that feel

Also

Live updates from Vu @ DT Panels. Great service :D

DT Panels had to custom cut the side skirts from the kit as they were made to fit the GTT guards from the old kit. Final result! Good result! and saves me time and money to find impossible GTR side skirts!

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
