Okay who here gets a pretty strong fuel smell in the cabin, when the car is turned off.

I do and I have no Idea why, the old girl who used to sniff the stuff was outta my life and long time ago, hehe

If anyone has any idea where this is coming from or why da hell i can smell fuel ....(making sure insurance policy is current incase of EXPLOSION) can you please let me know.

Thanks a lot, oh yeah and yes I have been putting fuel in the fuel tank only. learnt that lesson a while ago.

i notice theres abit of fuel fume smell if its a hot day, had a drive, switched the car off for a few minutes and then switched it back on

u notice the vapour pouring out of the fuel lid, something to do with the fuel return line maybe?

check for fuel leaks around the fuel filter/fuel lines in the engine bay

one of my first cars (which i wont say) had a leak at the fuel filter and noticed a real strong smell IN the engine bay along with inside the cabin

just a thought...

Great Ryan and Duncan you had me looking at the subject again, sheesh

definately stank.

Well i gotta service this thing its been on the road like 2 weeks since licencing and i havent done a thing. i guess oil + filter, fuel filter, plugs etc and yeah hopefully it is the filter, but yeah i am sure i am going to have to pay a visit to the fuel filler and have a look there. Dang

ah well while i am here, thanks for the replies peeps i appreciate it. expect more questions , maybe some that start with skank,

    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D
