Hi Guys,

Noticed some a noise slightly different to the normal clangs my car makes on the bumpy roads where i live and when i got to my destination checked the car and there is a wheel nut missing from my rear drivers side!!! They are 18" starcorp impuls as in my pic with locknuts.... one of the normal nuts is missing.

My question is, what sort of wheel nut do i get to replace it? Is it the same spec as factory R33, and if so whats that? Im hoping i still have the tyre change kit in the boot so i can tighten the other nuts this afternoon and that they are the same size so i can actually do it!!

Do places like autobarn, supercheap etc sell wheel nuts? Ill be calling today to ask but just after some answers if people have them. Most important what bloody wheel nuts to be asking for...

Cheers!

Yeah, size is 12 x 1.25 (I recently had to replace mine) Just make sure you find a set that are small enough in size that you can fit whatever tool you need to get them on & off (Which was my problem, the normal wheelnuts from super cheap etc where 21mm, and I can only get the 19mm socket fitting on my wheel brace to fit in my mag wheels)

      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)

      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.

      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
