Car is much neater, much tighter in every way. ATS clutch rattlesa little when the car is switched off. Rear pads sound a bit squeaky/rubbing but are only a few hundred old.

Everything appears to work etc. No knock on PFC, only 1.2kg boost on the MFD so not a nismo MFD.

Transferring deposit and chasing jap history - see my other thread.

Haha...great thanks! I am really fussy too so we are both on the same page.

Have been plugging away for quite awhile now. Looking for BB VSpec 1 or 2. ?

Edited by Juvo

Yes I was aware of that one but my fussiness extends to a 4.5B grade kinda car! Lol Which is why it's so hard to find one at a decent price. Have missed out a few from Jap Auctions due to my initial ignorance but it's too late now coz the Aud has taken a dive. ?

Great thread ActionDan, I enjoyed the time travel, glad you got "theOne" that you wanted. Some good info in here, just makes me miss my Skyine all the more, good luck with the 34 - I like it much more without the wing though!

Hah get stuffed.

Still chasing Jap history check. I have transferred a deposit...

I may have also sold the MILs Statesman which will be perfect timing to get the shed space back.

My guess realistically for the 34 is a few weeks - jap history check, organise to get back up there etc.

Something that did stand out about the car, I was just thinking about it, has an ATS twin plate carbon in it and when turning the car off there was a pronounced rattle as the flywheel/pressure plate stopped turning.


I'm aware of rattle on idle, but wasn't aware of pronounced rattle on shutdown.

Thoughts?

    • 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?
