Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

The speedo cable is way to long.. I unclipped the speedo cable up front and have it looping down slightly.

Hard to explain, get under the car have a look where the speedo cable comes out from the firewall and see the brackets that its attached to. Remove the attachment so it loops more so then it will be the correct length.

suck it up, you've just done a whole comversion so be patient with it. Not everything goes perfect first time. Your few little issues have been very minor. I bet it's the thrust bearing that i told you to replace hehe.

It'll all work out in the end.

Good to hear about the cops!!

Did you replace the spigot or more importantly make sure the motor had a spigot?

Mate of mine did similar.. Assumed there was a spigot. Ended up stuffing the input shaft bearing. :S

haha cubes its funny you say that, ive run into that problem a couple of times in the past etc and now i check religiously...yea the motor had a spigot and it was healthy. It it most likely the thrust bearing that i recommended to change but never got done. These things happen.

      Starting again

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
