Of crashing. Yeah it has an airbag - but when I hear a crash on the TV - I am pyshically sick, if I come up a bit quick to another car all I see is the accident. If I am driving and its stressful - like heavy rain or something I can;t breath properly. I never used to be like this - i was confident before

Liz I have been in more accidents than most ( usually as a navigator ) but found that by having confidence in your safety equipment and your self , the fear subsides fairly quick.

With the amount of times I have been in a roll ( bout 25 ) I worked out I am not destined to die in a motor car.

i think we should organize some sorta wet skid pad day

-my friend fully crashed his s15 the other day because he lost traction and panicked,did the wrong thing and braked..and flipped his car

Unfortunately , there is no one in Perth who has a skidpan.

When it rains at the MC track , it's great fun though.

lol @ ken.. after 25 rolls (separate occasions?!) then i'd say you have a correct hypothesis.. :D

Nah , 1 rotation is a roll. Was in a Triumph herald ( shaddup ) rally car that went over 31/2 times and caught fire.

Wrote off my rx7 rally car at a Sth Australia rallysprint with a 31/2 ( including 2 in the air ) .

Targa was 1 or so in 2001.

2 with my dad in a Datsun 1600 rally car

The list goes on...

    • 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?
