I agree compleatly with Gus, we should get together to welcome OZR32GTR (and myself as well).

I meet Andrew (Superfly Skyline) on Monday, and would like to meet a few more of you. It would be nice to have some friends who don't think that a skyline is just a car!

Does anyone have some suggestions as to where, when and what?

My car spends most of its time sitting in the driveway at home or in the carpark at woden and i'm sure it gets very bored with that, so lets organise something.

ohh boo ya, i knew someone would listen to me soon enough!

ohh and please, call me Gus or Angus :cheers:

Edit: maybe soimething along the lines of another canberra SAU photoshoot, meet on a sunday again, take piccy's FIRST (means we'll have all people there) and then head off for a barbie and more piccies. i know this means that the sun wont be the best, but at least everyone will be there for the photo's and we wont have people leaving (for whatever reason that is)

so i guess this leaves a discussion for dates and times etc

my suggestion would be probly Sunday 17, or somewhere around that date??

I'd love to come to one of these meets, but only being an L plater driver and unable to drive my car till late november i'd have to drag one of my middle aged parents along as well if i wanted to bring my car :)

Nothing wrong with middle aged, not all of us are still wearing 'kimbies'....lol, Skylines appeal to everyone [grey power].

On another note, I'll be in Canberra on Sunday 17th October anyway so thats convenient for me.

Yes they do appeal to everyone. I pulled into my local shops the other day and was checking out a grey 34 there, next minute a lady and her son jump out. I was shocked. She then came over and started to chat to me about our cars, was a nice surprise.

I'll be around on the 17th but I'm oncall so not sure if thats good.

Good to get some responses, I work pretty much every weekend, but only till 4 on Sundays and the days are getting longer as we speak so i thought I would throw out the idea of meeting on a sunday evening. We could meet, drive somewhere, throw a football, kick a soccerball or what ever, BBQ some dinner and crusie back with everyones hot plate lights burning.

What do you all think?

and if someone has a decent camera i could get a better pic of my car for my avatar because this one works in theory but the quality is pretty poor.

True, Skylines appeal to all people. My parents love driving my car, and i'm shocked to say are more leadfooted and reckless on the roads than me! My mum had a traffic light drag race the other day. I was in shock. :P I should be in, as long as i'm not working.

the sunday night idea sounds good, maybe on a saturday night insted. but i also think that i'd prefer to wait until summer for a nightime BBQ so maybe a resturant like the APK night we held for tosh awhile back??? i think we save the night BBQ for maybe a christmas time cruise, and we also make it a friday night so we can BBQ at like 6ish, then cruise through braddon or sumthin, i rekon 20+ lines would kill through braddon!

      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?
