Hi guys - just a quick hello from Washington.

We have spent a few days in New York, and have been to Niagara Falls, and now Washington. The weather is awesome, sights fantastic and we are having a ball!

Cars here are very cool, and I have been taking plenty of photos of interest. Haven't seen any Skylines - except for V35s, of which I have only seen 3. Got some photos of them too!

Hope everyone is well, and I might do a longer post with some photos, when I get to Boston early next week, and have time to upload/edit them.

Hey Nightcrawler

Im in Calgary Canada at the moment but im commin to the USA in 2 days time (Seattle). I dunno what its like in DC but here every1 is driving Acuras and Hondas, I saw a R32 GTR for the first time this week in Banff (brought bk memories of home :P). I had a stop over in London for a day and that whole time I only saw 1 import which was a Soarer, the cost of fuel ova there is like $3 AU i think so imports arnt so popular. Newayz have fun man and if u can stay in a hostel with a bar, even if u can afford a hotel they are the best fun and u meet so many different ppl.

Cheers, Spangers

PS Anythin happening in SA?

Hmmmmmmmmmm I'm Jelous Andrew!

RIGHT now i'm currently supposed to be in LA BUT still stuck in Adelaide which sucks!

My Parent said the weather in NY was Awesome the other week. Like 30 odd something...

Anyway hope you have fun!

Like i said so so so jelous!

Sounds like you guys are having a ball Andrew. I'm guessing Caroline is with you?

By the time you read this you will have left Washington so I hope you had a chance to check out the Smithsonian (Smithsonians really as it's 7 musems in total!) the Aerospace museum is awesome! Plus all the usual places: The White House, Arlington (JFK's grave/changing of the guard etc.) The Pentagon and so on.

I have vivid memories of my last trip to the States (mid 2001) I even did the trip to the top of the World Trade Centre (can't remember which tower it was) and still have a little Statue Of Liberty that I bought from the gift shop at the top of the WTC.

Enjoy the rest of the trip mate. Stay safe.

I'll finish off with... GO THE CROWS!!! :wub:

Well we just got home safe and well - I am heading to bed now, but will do a nice big post in the next day or 2 outlining our adventures. As we have just come from Hawaii, and I have now been out of bed for over 24 hours (13 of those spent flying), I am stuffed!

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • 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.
