Hi!

I have just recently started hearing lots of exhaust gas leaking on my stock tt R32. A nut seems to have vibrated loose and disappeared. Also it looks like the same thing was going to happen on the front turbo as its missing a nut as well .

We had a bit of a horror run getting it diagnosed properly locally so i attacked it my self and isolated it to the rear turbos exhaust dump gasket blowing out .

Using the manual all has gone fairly easy to the point of undoing the dump from the rear turbo.

I was wondering if anyone knew if i have enough room to: A. change the standard gasket with out removing the turbo from the upper exhaust manifold while up on Stand's, B. should i stop and take it to a hoist now knowing the problem. C. source a manifold for a to4z i have and and give up on the twins altogether?

Its booked in for 13 days away so i thought i would ask a few ?'s in the forum that might just straight up know while i wait and try to fix my self.

thanks dj

From looking at a mate's R32 GTR, I recken if you undo the joiner pipe to the cat, you might be able to undo the dump and back it off enough to slip a new gasket in there and then do it back up.

Getting to the bolts might be harder... the motor really looks shoe-horned into that engine bay!

    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
