Just brought my self a R34 GT-V, (Imported, waiting for compliance)

I have found out some info on the GT-V, but nothing concrete, like a spec sheet or something,

Just want to know if anyone has one of these or knows the specifications on the GT-V.

The jist of it is the GT-V is a NA sitting on a GT-T chassie, same suspension, same brakes, hicas, viscous LSD. how accurate is this?

The GT-V has the same brakes and suspension as the GTT. The suspension wont make much of a difference because most people swap that anyway, but the brakes are a good upgrade.

The interior is still the na setup obviously (no centre gauges)

I doubt it has the GTT gearbox, most likely just the stock na box

Auto box, not sure if there is a difference between na autos and turbos

With the suspension, does this mean I can upgrade the suspension using GT-T parts or even R34 GT-R suspension - something like http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...E:L:LCA:AU:1123

Almost 100% just GTT

GTR's use diff lower mounting points at the rear and have diffrent sprint rates at the front because of the extra weight of the driveshaft/diff/props

Just do a search (top right hand just under the SAU banner, click search, then adavanced search.. type in what ever and scroll down and click on the "suspention" section so it only searches that) in the suspention section.. has been covered many-a-time

I have just bought a R34 GT-V as said above 100% GTT minus the turbo. Mine is a 4 door 5 speed in Black Pearl, still very much stock [have to save some money before I have a play with it]. check out the link below.

Correct, the GT-V does not have the GTT box It has a variant of the R32 RB20DET gearbox ( with some subtle differences like electronic speedo drive, different shaped gearstick etc ).

Everything I have seen has said the GT-V came out in 2000, which is in-correct as my GT-V I brought was built in March 1999, (checked the VIN on Nissan Fast)

So I wonder what if anything is different about mine than the ones built in 2000+

It probably wouldnt have any difference if it was built late in 99, but March is very early, I got Xenons, as I saw them when I went and had a look at my car before it gets sent off to get a compliance plate. (hopefully they leave the xenons in)

From what I can gather the GT-V is a 2000 production model but was released in late '99. The post 2000 release models had the S2 updates e.g. 2 tone gear knob/steering wheel, white backed speedo/rpm gauges on the dash, the (slightly) ugly front bar and probably a few more things I'm not aware of. This confused me for a little while but you're right, GT-V was first released in 1999.

P.S. If the workshop do their job they won't leave the xenons in :)

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
