Well ,

as a few people know my heater core died on GOR cruise and well because ive been to busy up till yeste i never did any thing about it (Plus i was dredding removing dash)

but upon closer inspection i relised that nissan engineer brillant cars and to my suprise i had the blower motor , a/c evapourator and heater core out in 30 mins woohoo.also this job was very easy beacause my a/c was degassed.

now my dilema now is that i need a replacement heater core and i dont want to be buyin one from my nissan dealer because they want $341 trade which im not prepared to pay

reason for A/c being degassed is that is my a/c compressor died in the ass as well.

i was hoping some one could point me in the way of a second hand compressor and a new heater core for my line.

cheers in adance

P.S i will take re- assemble Photos for all because this is such an easy job for all Especially if It is the O-Rings leaking on your heater core

Car is A R33 series 1.5 1995 cheers

30mins is quick to get the dash out, never mind the heater core, took me much longer than that, and i thought i did it quick :(

The dash wasn't to hard, but getting the heaterbox in/out was a pain in the ass.

Just get a new copper heater core from NATRAD... think its teh same as 300zx... just take your old one to your local natrad dealer and show them and they can sell you a new one, not expensive, can't remember the price, $100 or $150 maybe?

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
