will follow up...

However there are no correlations to where you are, you can be in Melbourne yet people in WA may get theirs first because when RDA receives the order if they know the WA branch has a stock close by it gets shipped directly from there instead from Melbourne warehouse.

Most likely you were not home when the courier tried to deliver, this had been 99.99% of the cases over the past 3 years

.... Keep in mind that general OEM rotors normally have a lifespan of around 30,000 - 40,000km. My front stock V35 rotors were lipped and were already under the minimum thickness when the car landed with 49000km, so I would have estimated the previous owner in Japan didn't replace the rotor at 40000km service which was when it was suppose to be replace. I would expect RDA rotors also have a life expectancy around 30,000-40,000km just like OEM rotors.

I am not trying to be inflammatory, but when I got my R34 it had done 86,000km, and I am quite certain the rotors had never been replaced due to rust and lack of evidence of any mechanical work ever done to/around them. My car has now done 155,000km and they are on their way out but still going. So I have to disagree that OEM rotors are good for 30,000-40,000km.

Either way I am changing to the dimpled/slotted gold passivated rotors, which arrived the other day, and they look bloody awesome in the box!

I haven't fitted them yet as I am waiting for my QFM brake pads and brake rebuild kit to arrive, to do it all at once, along with some braided brake lines and custom caliper paint. :ermm:

as it happens I'll be at a different address from monday for about 10 days .. any chance I can have you give them the new address for delivery? It's also in Sydney.. so if they haven't sent it out yet, it'd be much better if I can get it at the new address.

It is probably already on its way. What I'll do is I'll grab the consignment number and you can ring the courier with that consignment number.

It's a lot easier that way.

only if Falcon's PCD is 5x114.3mm by factory standard, and if Falcon's centre hole diameter is the same or bigger than Skyline. if not then it will be up to the end user to modify their hub to fit.

Reason is they don't do custom made rotors unless you're willing to buy a minimum of 120 pieces (60 pairs) in one order

      R34 GT-R Positive Battery Cable Routing

      By Beanie · Posted

      Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.

      R34 squeaking sound from passenger front area

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.

      Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
