hey people, i know eventualy i am going to the dredded yellow sticker but just wondering, as ive never had one and know of no one that has had one, i was wondering do you get a fine as well as having to change the part that needs replacing. eg t-boost controller. They are illegal but do i get a fine as well as having to replace this with the stock t-piece?

It seems like it's up to the cop. Sometimes they will fine you, sometimes you just have to fix it.

From what some people say on the forums, it can be very expensive if they fine you for each item.

I always thought i would try and make my car as legal as possible, but sometimes, cops can be unreasonable.

mine is completly stock, the thing is i have a volt guage on top of my steering wheel, turbosmart t boost controller and also a turbo timer, i know you cant have the boost controller, i know that you cant leave the car running if the keys arnt in the car, and i also know the volt guage could be deemed as being obstructing the view of my speedo? Are these likely to get done in a road worthy. I have a r33 so i know they are always pulled over.

Bascially, you are right about the TT and boost controller. They're pretty inconspicuous.

The cops generally just pull skylines and other imports over because they have a bad name. While I don't like it, I don't blame them.

Generally the cops are good if they see that you're just a nice person minding your own business.

There have been experiences of peopel on the forums showing otherwise. e.g. the cops checking all the ligts on the car and if a globe is blown, you get a defect.

That is not fair, considering, you didn't get a chance to rectify it.

i agree with ya 97r33 about them picking on things, my turbo timer is beside my electric mirror thingy (r33gtst) so to remove that would i just be able to remove the turn knob, would that pass, if not connected to anything, the put it back on afterwards???? thats what im really asking, fines? i dont have alot of cash and need to know wether to save up for a fine aswell as upgrades cos im gunna be doing more to the car, its just that i wannna keep money aside for the shit that happens incase i do get pulled over. Its a dailt driver and its driven around 400kms a week, iver had it for around 2 and a bit months and havent been pulled over YET, but when i do, im one of thse people that pay the penelty and get on with it staight away? Im just scared of being pulled over for a RBT and getting done for every little minor thing on my car when i know very well that 1000 other people have the same thing done and dont get done for it.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      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
