The trick is to get your 60' times down first. Adding NOS means SFA if you spin you wheels like crazy comming out of the hole.

take staceys quickest two runs for example she babyd the car on these two runs ,left the line better ie.good 60ft and no wheel spin on gear changes.sure a better driver would have gone quicker but for her level of experience no more power is needed until she can learn to drive it on the grip threshold to maximise the power she has got without comprimising grip.

the car is being stripped at the moment (yes another build-up) doing away with items that dont req.eg hicas abs a/c etc .seam welding chassis installing cage,different suspension setup.big single turbo kit (T51R SPL) going to try for hpi top ten.....hello high power..... goodbye transmission. p.s. PAC boys prefer blondes ....lookout

Maybe I am old fashioned (at 23 years young), but with NOS you can sit there all day running the same time

I wasn't clear in what i meant.... I meant with NOS you will run times better than without NOS etc... then when you run out of NOS the guy next to you without it now starts to beat you, and will continue doing so until you refill your bottle....

in reference to what you read my comment as - i'm sure it would be alot harder to run consistent times with NOS, more to think about, more to get the timing right etc...

these seem to be in the grey weather legal or not.

Ask 10 cops and see what answers you get. I'll put money on it. What if you put Nittos on your car to race? Everything else was stock and they are radial tyres after all... But then you drive home and get pulled over. The cop gets you to pop your bonnet and sees that all is as it should be. Checks your tyres (as your guards are covered in rubber:D)and they're fine too. But what's this? Your tyres don't have the same weight rating that your tyre placcard specifies?

Oh oh.... Your bone stock GTR just got defected for having ILLEGAL tyres. While he's looking at you closer now cos you give him/her a earful of cheek, he notices that your rego sticker is slightly peeling off. What do ya know?!?! Another ticket.

What a shame you can't tell the people on your favourite forum that your times were in street trim, street legal, whatever. Better get that rego sticker re-stuck too!

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?
