I'm meeting up with 5hiv on Wednesday arvo to get a cat back exhaust fitted and some R34 rims.

At the same time ill probably try adjust the ride height or tackle that on the weekend.

Checked my child restraints and it looks like I only have one so ill probably grab those off you as well Rob. Not sure how they get fitted though?

If the car fails on too many things is it possible to cancel rego and re-rego in NSW? Or do the defects follow you?

I got f**ked at rego a few months ago... got done with window tint, wheel alignment, no child restraints, to low, to loud, wheel spacers, sub :/, not showing my middle seatbelt clip thing, lower ball joint exc... didn't get done with the turbo timer, pod filter, low brake pads, no engineers report for the child restraints witch Trojan did, they didn't check the Db of the exhaust on second check or the track... f**k they were assholes haha

if you get picked up on that just remove the front tint with a hair dryer...

I removed it all :/ getting the glue off the back window is a shit fight!

I wouldn't worry about it to much.. it sounds like you have all the skyline problems.. if you cant do some of the stuff yourself book it into Trojan, great people down there!

I got my standard shocks and ball joint from them for a good price...

Dunno if it was answered, only skimmed through - regarding the boot lining and struts, you'll be fine. I only had the plastic between the boot and the battery shelf, a sub held in place with tie downs, that's it. Also my struts might as well have not been there lol

Awesome, well I'm going to give it a shot because that doesn't hurt. But still can anyone give info on if I de-rego and then re-rego in NSW would I have any issues?

Only thinking because my parents live down the coast and there are plenty of workshops down there who would allow me to rego it. Could easily chuck it in my parents name for the next 3 months

That should allow the time for my R34 to show up MAYBE.

      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)

      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?
