I have little to no technical knowledge of cars. Blasphemy I know. But my car has once again to be an A grade butt plug and screwing me over. It has decided that it wants to have cooling issues and is overheating within 5-6 minutes of starting it up. Now this has only occured since my mate put it into a freakin bus shelter. That was made of solid concrete. There was more physical damage to me then to the bus stop and I wasn't even there.

Anyway, It has been on going now and because the insurance company claims they fixed it and it didn't play up for the repairers immeadiatly after the fixit, I gotta sort this shit out. What I am after is a list or series of sugestions on quality mechanics in sydney. Quality of work done, value of the service, turnaround. So on so forth. Maybe some radiator or cooling specialists. Who knows? If you have some hints and tips then I would be glad to here from you.

hey mate, i had some cooling issues, i went to a radiator specialist in gladesville, on victoria rd, i dont remember the name of the place, but he fix my problems that i had at the time which was a few years ago, since then ive never opened my radiator cap, he flushed the old stuff out, changed the a few things and he did it in a day, and it cost me $80, i went to another place before and they wanted $300 to fix my probs, powerplay imports sent me to see this guy, also check if your radiator has coolant in it, maybe they filled it with just water, and after a while water just evapourates, hope i was some help, overheating is a bitch of a thing, as for someone giving your front end a make over, my brother totalled my front end into the back of another car a few years back, ive learned to live with it, you forget after a while

    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • 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
