tell me about it, i sold brakes for $500 and have to spend $3500 to replace them.

haha. you planning on getting rid of it already? or just for the right price ay..

i was looking into doing this as a project but i think i'd get bored from how long it would take with available funds atm.

grrrr it's 2:33am and i've been sitting here pretty much re-reading the whole thread haha!

makes me wana start mine right now. still got a lot of research though!

would you mind if i asked you a few question when i get stuck on mine?

wish me luck at work in 2 hours haha

Purchased a GTR style front bar ages ago, there is a pick of it somwhere earlier in the thread.

Some Vielside side skirts, and a GTR bonett to go on very soon i hope. Also bought a glass bootlid but it does not seem to be much lighter than the metal one. have to weigh it.

can you say 'race spec!'

What front bar are you using.. decent sized oil cooler too!

basically the same car, i cant see it being to much different. Spoke to SK today about a suspension package. You would be amazed on what i learned in 20mins on the phone. want to get the car running in the next few weeks and then sort suspension and then brakes. Might have to sell go-kart.

Can't weit to see this in action.. been waiting for an ls1 powered 32 for ages! So many ls1 s13's now though.

yea i was wondering what suspension you're going to be using seeing that you're using it as an all rounder.

  • 2 weeks later...

Car has been at panel shop for last week getting fitted up. Had the boot sprayed also. Bonnet pins fitted etc and then a final buff, came up mad. cant believe it is the same car i picked up from Qld 18 months ago. this is the first time the car has had all the panels fitted.

Got the lifters today and should have the heads next week.

Pulling box back out tomorro to play around with release bearing clearance.

Cpmputer arrived during the week. Going to purchase some guages, finish the dash and get the car wired so i can fire it.

A few before and after shots.

    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • 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
