good to hear it all back together now. Which radiator did you get from justjap - the one for $399?

i'm thinking about buying one of those - do you have any pics of it installed? and what do you think about the build quality & welds...

Hey ppls.

Been off work for a couple of weeks which is why I haven't been responding to anybody.

Okay, the radiator fit like a glove. It's a triple core unit from Just Jap, it arrived in a well packed box the day after I paid.

I fit it up and hey presto, no probs.

The standard air snorkel doesn't fit really well now because the top of the radiator is square, not round like the stock ones, but it's nothing that a heat gun on the snorkel wont fix.

I would have liked some baffling in the core to force the water over to the side before hitting the core, but I don't think it will be too much of a problem.

The R33 GTR radiator is EXACTLY the same as the R34 GTT, same part number and everything.

So you can now get an R34 GTT radiator for less than $400.

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
