As per the topic, I'm needing a new battery as I've had a few problems with the one that's in there now. So I was wondering instead of just wandering out and buying whatever fits, do any oy you R33 owners have anything you can reccomend to me as a decent battery, cause I've had enough of the crappy thing that's in there atm. Cheers :thumbsup:

just a quick pointer....you sure its not your altinator? coz i thought i had a bad battery in my old car and i replaced it only to have the new battery to die. I hope it is your battery coz they are f**king expensive.

Hmm... The car started after work. Made the sound that trying to start on a near dead battery (that kind of high pitched whirry noise) then turned over. I tried it another couple of times since i was all "WTF?" and it started no problems. Anyone have any idea what this could be? Alternator? Mechanically, I know bugger all. There have been another couple of instances in the past where the car didn't turn over properly (but not like it was a flat, just made that whirring noise then started on the next try) so now I'm fearing the worst :)

The dry cell ones are awesome, however for the price i wouldnt bother.

I just got a run of the mill one from autobarn, there's one that suits the R33, its in the booklet thingo there...

yuup did the same, working a treat, although dont have any heffty strains (woofers) on it, so it depends on what the battery will be driving in the long run :)

If it is just the battery theres a wholesale place over in Queanbeyan (on Uriara) he just searches up on his database whats available for the make, model and year, walks into his factory and comes back with the battery for about 30% cheaper then youd be expecting at battery world

Check that the alternator is charging and also put a booster pack on and see if it still does it as it could be a starter or ring gear problem. If it is a battery then all i can suggest is you buy the one that has the most CCA which is cold crank amps, as i looked into the oddysey batterys and i found that they had lees CCA than some of the others. AGM or dry cell are excellant but pricey.

      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
