I am absolutely sick of all you haters about me driving a turbo. If you have nothing to say don't say it. There is no reason to be Nasty you wouldn't do it to a person On there opens its just because I wear that little plate. I did it all legally and got approved GET OVER IT!

Yeah none of those ridiculous mods it has 18 chromies on it... I hate them. I want to put te37's on

All I'm doing is just changing everything back to stock with the engine for now to stop any extra attention.

sure you did it legally, but through a loop hole. you decided that the law shouldn't apply to you and so you decided to try for the loop hole which is only really there for people who need to drive a turbo vehicle because their parents own on and they NEED to drive it, or their work vehicle is turbo and they NEED to drive it. not because some kid likes skylines and decides he's going to buy one regardless of what the law says beccause, well, f**k it, he damn well WANTS to drive a skyline like the cool kids! and despite what he says about driving sensibly, it won't be long before he's racing cars off from the lights and doing burnouts and generally doing more damage to the already fragile image of import owners and enthusiasts.

Ok for one. I do drive it for work running for parts dropping off customers and picking them up. And i have a moderately power exemption it does not need a reason for it. It isn't a loop hole, it's there for cars that are turbo but don't have the power of a turbo. And all the cool kids drive there skid pig commodores.

You should of been at the mighty car mods meet today and seen all the p platers with turbo cars. And all the idiots driving stupidly.

And you know what as I said I have had it with the negativity

Plus what's the difference of me getting a n/a and just going out and being that stupid p plater like you are all portraying. The difference is some kilowatts. And that is it. So get over the turbo fact and can we get back to the point of this whole forum. General discussion and advice about cars. Not ragging on me because some people have a problem with me. If you have a problem..... Simple!....... STOP REPLYING AND LOOKING AT THIS THREAD!!

what marc is trying to say is that its your attitude that could be a potential problem

you bought a car that you know, as per the law, should be prohibited; you then made steps to put yourself behind the wheel of said car (with no guarantee that the exemption would go through).

yes you went through legitimate means, but it takes a certain amount of subconscious arrogance (or an 'i'm better than that' mindset) to go for it.

I'm not having a dig at you mate, but we all know that such a mindset (regardless of age) is not a good thing.

EDIT: Mad082, i don't even know if your names marc. :S i dont know if it's your signature or what, but for as long as i can remember on the forum, everytime i see a post of yours ive associated your account with 'marc'

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
