ya i used a 3 arm one... 2 DAYS AGO!

lol

Well thats good to hear, even if it means I've turned out useless... again lol

hmm stay away from 2 arm puller if you need to use that style use 3 arm
Just sayin....

How can you be a true bush/backyard mechanic if you don't have sub standard tools? :D

Besides, it worked fine on my R31... (so not all RBs are screwed, pun intended, or it was on so tight I couldn't get it off... either or) even if I dropped the pully onto the ground and chipped it real good like. Luckily on the aircon side. The aircon didn't work anyway so I removed the belt and condenser after that :)

You chipped the harmonic balancer and you re-used it with part of it missing??

Well if thats so your engine is not very well balanced now !!!

Funnily enough it ran better after I chipped it. Probably more to do with the fact I had just replaced the water pump and timing belt (without a timing light, or other special timing tool :laughing-smiley-014: ) at the same time. This was October 2005. The car is now a dark blue drift pig. Needless to say when I chipped it I wasn't like "FAAAARK I chipped it!!!". Was more like... "Wow... that sucks... meh"

Hopefully I'll be less dodgey with my current Skyline :down:

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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.
