Shaking Rear End On Gtr33

Hey guys. I am having an issue with my GTR33 and I just cant seem to figure it out! Here is the info:

I have a 96 GTR33 and my rear end shakes at speeds exceeding 100kmph. Now it does this in all different gears not just gear 3 or gear 4. However, I do not feel the problem at all with speeds less than 100kmph. When the rear end shakes it feels like I hit a wet spot and lost traction for a second and then regained traction and instant later. It is not a violent shake, nor does it last long, it also happens intermittently. It happens every once in a while. Also it often happens when I am not in boost at all and I am also cruising at a constant speed. I am not necessarily stepping heavy onto the gas. I mean it feels EXACTLY like my rear wheels hit a water spot and slid a bit. Also if I recall correctly it tends to shake to the right. Any ideas on what my issue may be? I am going to the shop tomorrow for a tune up and would like to have something to tell them to check out. Thanks guys.

Well came back from the shop today and it appears that my HICAS motor is dead. It SEEMS that the rest of the system works however. So now I am in the market looking for a HICAS motor. (You know the little black thing in the back under the car in the middle of the rear axle?) If anyone has one, or knows where I can get one decently priced any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot.

Also

I have indeed heard from quite a number of people that it would probably be best to just eliminate the HICAS system all together. However, I would really like to get it back up and running first. I at least want to experience the system and then make an informed decision for myself on wither I want to eliminate it or not.

Especially with the problem being something as simple as just the motor. That is just a few bolts and then im done. So while I do appreciate the opinion to remove the system all together, I would appreciate it even more if someone could either point me to where I can get a new HICAS motor or tell me that they had one available (im sure some of you do since you have locked your systems). Thanks a lot for the help!

was about to say HICAS before i read your post, woohoo 1 point for me.

put up a WTB thread, plenty of people have removed HICAS from their car, so you should get the motor cheap.... GTRgeoff is one of them, maybe you can pm him.

      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)

      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
