I think your best bet is Japan. Would still be cheaper than going through Nissan.

Try and find out if all the VQ timing chain kits are the same (Z33, V35, M35, E51 etc) would make life a lot easier finding them.

What engine? Vq30det?
I fix a lot of VQ engines, and have never seen a chain issue. Usually it's a guide or tensioner, or variable cam actuator causing issues.
Your best bet is a g35 chain kit from the US if it fits, or just go to Nissan with your Vin?
Try EPCdata for part numbers.

thanks leroy and scotty, the problem i have is when you start up the revs are surging up and down, when i select driive it evens out and ticks over ok, accelarate to go and nothing, revs take a nosedive, there is a rattling when cold but goes when she warms up, my garage says it could be a streched chain throwing timing off hence the ask about a chain kit, or the cam sensor is goosed, the problem didnt just happen, ive noticed her having a miss while driving around the 60 mark like it misses for a second but has gradually got worse, cant drive her at all now, cheers for any info lads.

    • 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?
