Guys with cars n houses never spend any money on their house unless its neccessary!

but.. on that note i want my house to look as good as possible too..

Wot y'all up to?

Richie - whining coming from back of car under acceleration usually means ur diff is on its way out

it doesnt whine below 120 tho... i dunno.. more money...

my car had the sopiler removed and then the holes welded up and painted... got to take it back tho cause the wanker didnt match the colour properly...

i like that air freshener that smells like new car!

nothing going on today, i think that my day is getting worse. i was thinking that it miht be the diff but i was hoping that it might just be a wheel bearing.

once you work in a caryard for 3 years - your over the new car smell haha.

hey Ross :)

My car still vibrates the wheel badly at 130km an hour!! (yes wheels have been balnced and aligned etc) its funny cos you'll let it drop back to 128 and it'll stop but as soon as it hits 130km the left front wheel starts vibrating first ..... then push it to 135km/hr and they all start joining in :)

thats no good!!

i wouldnt have a clue what that could be, maye your rotors are a little warped?

i know where i might have seen your car before, like before you had it... i am pretty sure that when i used to live in east freo the car used to visit next door to where i lived.

if my rotors were warped wouldnt they said something to me when they took them off and were machining them etc ?

possibly Richie .... but my cars a bit like a relationship - you like to live under the illusion that they havent had any lovers before you :)

yeah - thats what we thought mine were ..... my tyres had the worst eggs in them co si drove around for so long with phucked shockies .... so about a month ago i got new tyres :) .... so they are definately better!! But still cant get rid of the 130+ vibration .... which is no good .... i guess it keeps me on the good side of the law but still ruins fun cos my car steering wheel starts going crazy and you feel like you aint got as much control as you should over the car - so i usually back off once i hit that.

    • 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?
