can you get a pic of the rear part of the engine bay like the back part of the rocker cover that is blocked by the crossover pipe

and also please check the colour of the plate on the air flow meter.. should be a bright pink colour.

this is a series II AFM... little things like this will identify this infamous 1.5 which is supposed to have a series II engine but series I everything else..

if its the wrong colour its a series I.

if its the right colour.. then its a possibility that it has been in a bad accident and the front end has been replaced... but as to why the interior is half half... cos its not a complete series I interior cos of the dash surround which is from a series II

i have seen heaps of 1995's with that steering wheel.. and no series II i have ever seen has had 1 airbag.

This car might even be a rebirth lol, check the Vin number and make sure everything checks out. Check the Build plate and make sure it is not engraved, if it is then its rebirthed. Judging from condition of the front of the car i would be even thiking that its a 1993.

Well you guys have all been a great help.. I will see what posts come up over the week between now and Friday when it gets a check done by Hyperdrive.

Looks like its a bits and pieces but Im not going to rule out buying it just yet, the vibration it has is a bit of a problem but if it costs under $500 to fix it then hey its worth the money.

Thanks guys, I kinda get the impression that its not a series II and is more like a 1.5

Well with any luck it will pass all its tests on friday and I will be at the next cruise so you can all have a look at it.

    • 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?
