Had drama's with the camera. Something happened to the card & it has a bunch of corrupted files... so lost a bunch of photos.

Tried recover them, got some... Then, Photoshop wants a serial number so I had to grab a something free to resize them.

Free software goes "we can make your photos look more awesome!" so I said yes... Turns out over saturation is what people think is awesome.

These are the only photo's i managed to recover.

looked like you were having a lot of fun from where I was sitting :)

Can the couple who were enquiring about a V-Spec II yesterday please email me on

[email protected] ???

Meanwhile, I'm very much enjoying the pics.

The BMW respectably followed a GT-R all the way up the mountainside > no slipping either

Thanks mate. I believe they are around 380mm at the front. Discs are AP, and yep calipers are Brembo GT 8 piston front 4 rear. Can't sing the praises of good brakes enough, especially on a day like today!

Are the front rotors 36mm thick? Can the calipers support that wide of a disc? If you dont mind me asking, where did you source them?

I only ask as i am upgrading my brake very shortly and am weighing up my options.

If you are looking to pick up a bargain upgrade I've got a big Alcon brake kit for sale Damo? :thumbsup:

    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
