Looking good Scottie

my original thought was to try and keep the stealth look about it.

But then i thought the sound of the car and the big as F*#k drag wing on the rear kind of gives it away lol

Are you coming to happy laps Ants? even if its just spectating and racking up KM's on the Anteater but no tracking
i will see how I go mate. Still got a bit of resto / paint work to do on car before it runs again.

Plus suspension and brakes need some Zac attention :)

Nice one. Mr Scott, how goes the brakes?

Quite good actually .Well the car doesnt get driven all that much but when it went to QR they handled really well. However my mechanic seems to think I put them on upside down. Either way they still seem to work fine

Ants, loving the CF detail in the map pockets. Very nice!

I went through a stage a CF wrapping almost everything. It gets so addictive

How did you manage to put them on the wrong good way around? Pics!

well Richo reckons the bleeder should be on the top and not the bottom like Ive done. SO the Left Caliper should actually be on the right rotor and vise-versa. If you know what I mean...

#@MagicMikeZ32 might be able to shed some light on this?

I reckon he is right

He races cars every weekend so I think he is right as well. HE reckons that there "may" be some air left in them right at the top. So potentionally they will work even better. however the effort of taking them off and on again really doesn't tickle my fancy

I agree. They work really really well once warm now. Hard to think they could be even better!

Also a put a fresh set of plugs in yesterday so my misfiring issue is resolved short term. New coil project in the works though

They won't stop you faster or anything but it will give you a better pedal feel which is always handy.

    • Don't do it if your gearbox box has already having syncro issues. The short hifter will put a greater load on them. If you must I remember Nismo did a shorter shifter, with the top part being physically shorter and the part that went into the gearbox was the same as stock. In saying that I've had a C's short shifter (I think) in mine for many years, which was given to me as the previous owner was not sympathetic to the gearbox. Thus forwarned I was careful and had to modify my normal changing style. You have to be super accurate with your clutch and shifts
    • Well, after a week of daily driving and having to crawl out between the wheel and the side intrusion bars. I got myself a quick release setup. I went with an NRG short hub and Quick Release with some cute heart cutouts on the pull tabs. Nice and matchy matchy with the rest of the interior accents I have going on.  The only downside is the total stack height even with the short adapter is longer than the old HKB boss kit. Luckily I had some adjustment left on the column so move the wheel away.
    • stock shifter with new bushes, springs and cup will improve it. Gktech do all the bits. The opinion as the years have gone on is the redline is not great in old gearboxes.
    • Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?
    • Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.
