and for something relating back to tyres now...

A friend had Grid II's and lost it in the wet with his r33...

If you must spend heaps of cash then ask the right questions to a tyre dealer. You dont want to spend all that money to find out you didnt get what you wanted - which in this case is clearly "traction in the wet".

Good point.

I would recommend you (well anyone looking at new tyres/wheels) go to Mag Wheel & Tyre on Chiffley Drv in Preston. The guy there will give you a no bullshit, straight up answer to your questions. I went in asking for S02 Bridgestones (255/45/18 @ $600 each) and he told me the Hankook 104s match them in every aspect for $330 each (265/40/18). I dont think he's gonna rip you off.

mm... terrance you whore.

anyway.

i mgot simex 215's on mine...

In the wet my ass steps out VERY easily and i loose traction on take off almost all the time.

That's due to my clutch though.

In the dry. Can't beat them. for 215's (i need 225/245's really) they do a decent job considering i've got some reasonable power. And i've smoked up a few times and drive hard... and the tyres look like new still so they've got a long life it seems

I've had yokohama's on another car and they were good also, very good in the wet but VERY soft and therefore don't last as long as other brands.

they were 539's i think?

Let me know what you decide Daz, as I am thinking of getting tyres too. Tonight i was going 100km along the freeway, when i changed to 3rd and floored it. The wheels slipped and traction control came on and the power just died.

My suspension is brand new so i think it is my tyres but that's almost brand new. Is there anyway my car is boosted without me knowing??? hmmm... as i can never get traction (silly question)

Oh yeah, and i got smoked:P

      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.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      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
