Had my GTR done at CRD too 3wks ago.....initially took it to bel and was not overly impressed...thought it would gain more considering the mods....Jim at CRD gained an extra 42kw and it was a richer mixture than bels. Bel did not adjust cams stating that it would not make a difference....well croydon proved that one to be wrong....it spools a lot quicker as well.

At the end of the day CRD has the 3rd quickest GTRs in aus. They are renowned for tuning race teams, curcuit drag, targa teams etc and have the experience more than any other tuner....the rest are all try hard tuners thinking there GTR specialists....only jim has contracts with racing teams and only jim has a Sh&it load of GTRs in his garage....

I used to hate CRD thinking they think theyre the best i tuned it previously with hills, unique, then bels then CRD...all i can say is CRD shiiiiiits on all of them and that is through testing experience...

You pay for what you get....simple.... you spend money to get your car modded then spend the money to have it tuned properly. With bels they charged $800 road and dyno (no cam adjustment as he stated was not needed) CRD charged $1200 (with cam adjustment and got an extra 42KW...worth the $$$ to me. Also safer set up with AFM and torquier at lower RPMs.

you be the judge...if you never had CRD tuned your car you'll never know the difference.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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)

      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?
