I have owned both.

VN.....harsh motor..last forever.

VL...sweet motor...need to look at some repair work..ie head gaskets..etc.

Paint work on the VL is a lot better.

Most VN's have bad fade marks on DUCO.

Series 2 VN are not bad....series 1 has water coolant issues.

GO VP ....VN was the first and the worst....

VL was last of the series...this is why they are more sort after.

Just my thoughts......

GO VL.......at least they still turn heads.

i own a VL, i know a few people that owns VN's, get the VL. the only time i wouldn't recomend a VL for a daily is if its a turbo that you are modifying also.

VLT+mods=more time off the road than on it, literally....

VN will get you less attention than the (in)famous VL, and a VN has waaaay more room in it. Plus the interior is... 'good' isnt the right word, better than the VL thats for sure. Plus you can leave a VN anywhere and not have to worry about it because frankly, who cares? its a VN

The VL dash can be quite a lot of fun if you pick up a problem child... and good luck getting the air con to work

Had a VN 1988 v6 manual(good fun tank slapper). Did the job, tip though, make sure coolant hoses and heater hoses are replaced!

If you had less than half a tank going around a round about motor would die for a sec cos the tank has no baffles, the little things!

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      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)

      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.
