I just did the r34gtt front brake conversion this morning on my m35 axis. As others have said, pretty much direct bolt on. Just had to remove the olive/restrictor from the gtt calipers and the dust shield met Mr hammer which worked well. I managed to get the required clearance without trimming it. The axis rims fit back on without clearance issues which is a bonus. Just got to bleed the brakes after lunch and go for a drive. All in all, very straightforward upgrade.

Is the internal diameter of the m35 line connector the same as this 'restrictor'. Thats why i kept mine in

I believe the restrictor needs to be removed otherwise the banjo bolt can't seat all the way unless you shorten in. I didn't bother checking I just removed it as advised in this thread.

Yes there is no need if u do that. My logic was the original m35 calipers that the factory banjos screw into don't have an olive and the lines aren't designed to be used with it in. The reality is it probably makes f**k all difference and is a personal preference thing.

Use a self tapping screw. Screw it in till it stops or until the olive starts spinning with it then pull out with some pliers. 1 I took out came easy as the olive started spinning. The other was a bit of a bitch but came out eventually with a bit of CRC and some careful pulling.

Hey anoyone with big brakes, don't forget to check your spare if it fits.

Mine doesn't even on the back with 12mm spacers.

Need to source another rim with matching size and offset from a wrecker.

Lucklity I had a flat in the city and not down the snow where i was 2 weeks ago.....

My spare has been sitting in my garage for quite some time. No point in having it in the car as it doesn't fit unless I put two 25mm bolt-on spacers on the hub.

So i decided to go with THIS

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
