Britney gets pole, but only really through a technicality. And then celebrates as if he didn't screw up others laps. They need to bring in a rule where if you cause a yellow with less than 30 seconds to run, or after the session has ended, then you get a penalty.

No they don't. It wasn't on purpose, that's racing (or qualifying in this instance).

I agree that the celebration was a bit much though.

lol that is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. Let's penalize people for pushing it to the limit in Q3 while trying to get pole.

Rosberg should have stayed right at the end of that escape road as his session was over anyway with only 30 seconds left in Q3 and not enough time to start another lap. With him at the end of that road the yellows should have been cleared and Hamilton would've been able to complete the lap

Doesn't take much for the douchebag in Hamilton to come out!

Rosberg scored 2 little victories there - one over Hamilton for pole and also over Hamilton mentally - he's no poker player! The last thing you'd do is let the other guy know how pissed off you are like that - or carry on like a child in the press conference broadcast to the world!

I wouldn't be surprised if Hamilton does something stupid tonight, or makes one of his trademark silly mistakes...

I don't see why it's stupid. Had he caused a red flag he would've been penalised. Had he been going slow and blocked people he would've been penalised. Had he gone off and pulled back in front of someone while returning to the track he would've been penalised. But sitting a little way down an escape road and then reversing onto the track, while causing a prolonged yellow flag is ok cause he was "just having a go"? Might as well stop penalising people who take another car out when trying to overtake under brakes, because "they are just pushing hard to get a position".

He didn't go slow and block anyone, he didn't go off and pull back in front of anyone and so on... I said he shouldn't be penalized for pushing hard for pole, and f**king it up.

He should probably have copped something for reversing up the escape with the intention of rejoining as he was well aware there was 30 seconds left, and that he could not get around to start a new lap..

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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?
