Thanks a lot for your responses :happy:

I have another question now.... When the time comes I will buy another R33, but the other day I was brousing the J-SPEC Imports website and came across some really nice cheapish r32 GTR's with around 60,000kms. Do you guys have any reasons why you would choose one over the other given the chance?? 32 is older but it's a GTR and I really like 33's so not sure.....

Cheers

haha i still have no idea what that sticker is, half the people i ask say its when you should and the other half say its when its done.

As for 32 gtr or 33 i'd say 33 just for the fact that despite the sheer sex of a 32 gtr, they are old cars. Get a 33 GTR, best of both worlds and then some :happy:

my sticker has the kms when the belt was changed written on it, not when it is going to need to be changed

the silver sticker is like a proper printed factory sticker with a line of Jap then underneath it has 100,000kms and more Jap...

are you saying yours has like 96,842kms or something like that instead? Or do you mean there's a different handwritten sticker there?

the sticker is simply there so to be written on when the car has had it's timing belt changed/100,000km service. I would not be buying a car that has no sticker on there as why would you remove it unless it has done >100,000km's/had it's timing belt already replaced...

Steve,

If you get a bad example of an R32 GTR it will cost you large amounts of money for repairs... GTR's are always going to be more expensive to modify, repair and maintain than GTST's as they have more to go wrong eg: 2 turbo's, 2 diffs, 4 axles, transfer case... etc.

GTST's arent as good as a race / drag car though for obvious reasons, also they are a lot more common than GTR's.

Bottom line... GTR is a better all round car, but its easy to get in way over your head money wise if you get a bad one.

GTST is cheaper, more common but still a great car for the price you pay.

Of all the R32's I see getting around I reckon it's 90% GT-R versus 10% everything else R32.

    • 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.
    • 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.
