Wishlist/Coming Soonish List:

Repair to dent from a bad driver

Fit Sparco seat

Install new dials

Install new gear/Hbrake boots

Bigger sway bars

Better rotors/pads/brake lines

Fit HICAS lock bar

Get annoying alignment issue fixed.

THEN I'll start thinking about more power (currently ~200atw).

When it's on the road, i really enjoy driving it.

The only thing I REALLY want is for it to just be a reliable daily driver. Not really a hard ask...or is it...from an 18yo car...

Other bits and pieces would be stuff like better stereo as mine is absolutely shocking and maybe nicer wheels - but not essential. Also thicker sway/roll bars.

Yeh i hear ya. I want a little bit more from my 32 gtr but i really enjoy having a reliable ride that i know exactly whats going on with it.

Apexi power fc / tune for better fuel econ

Cam gears

flushed injectors

Tinting

Exhaust thats not falling apart

Bilstein suspension package on here

Headlights that actually illuminate something

Turbos that arent 18 years old

Some lighter wheels

Lighter seats too.. to me it seems r32 gtr seats are excessively heavy

Kaaz diff

4WD adjustable Switch

New clutch

I reckon $11,000 would cover it :S

Oh.. remove HICAS and ABS as well (still considering ABS removal)

In the next 12 months I think i'll do these things (no particular order):

Gearbox + clutch

Fix steering rack leak

Bride drivers seat

Stereo

Castor rod bushes

Rear slotted discs

New pads all round (rb74) + rbf600 fluid flush

Dreaming:

Wheels (18" Work Meister S1)

Cams

1.5 or 2 way LSD

Oil cooler

Harness

I'm happy with my car, but would be happier with...

Work Emotion XD9's in Gunmetal 17x8.5 and 17x9.5 (which im buying once I've done my tax)

Bridgestone RE55s to suit

Rebuild my f**ked leaking front coilover (get them all done while I'm at it)

Half cage with harness mounting points

Sparco Sprint seat (or seats)

So, I'm nearly there...time to ask for a pay rise...

Finally get around to fitting all the crap I've collected over the past few months

just waiting on getting a new fuel pump, the silicon hose from bassjunky's G/B.

Then get it all done in one hit

I've had a FMIC, apexi power fc, Greddy spec II boost controller & splitfire coils taking up space in my room for aaages.

    • 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...
    • 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?
