yeah the pic I posted above shows the maltec braided clutch line, I got mine from UAS who have them in stock. couple of reasons for this car:

* it removes that ridiculous clutch damper system and replaces it with a direct line

* increased clearance to the fuel rail when motor is going in and out because the line comes out at 90o and goes straight down due to the banjo fitting

* removes the short factory line which I think is suspect after 18 years.

If you are running the sump extention, then you cannot run the sump baffle, and it would be pointless anyway. The sump extention comes with it's own round baffle, which is a cylinder with holes in it, which reaches down to the bottom of the extention. It welds on to the standard sump trays. It also comes with and extended pickup. The sump baffle kit would sit above the sump extention with the oil below it, making it pointless and it would foul on the baffle that comes with the sump extention kit.

You cannot run the TRUST one....but who mentioned TRUST?....not me...not Andrew...i thought he just meant extending the sump. I had an extended sump which i sold to a customer in the ACT which was extended below the Tomei baffle and had an extended pick-up...worked very well.

Well i was thinking of modifiying the sump around the tomei baffle style. so i could have a bit of an extension and use the trap doors tomei have given me, or maybe i can sell the baffle and go the hi octane one..

possibly do the rb sump similar to the wing style like the aftermarket sr20 ones

Yes it is possible to still run the Tomei baffle with a sump extension.

Why would you want a 6 inch blond when there are so many nicer 6 foot ones?

as for the 6' blond, your right a 6' foot size 6-8 anything would be ok also! haha

For simplicity id go the Hi Octane one...sell the Tomei baffle kit to someone with a streeter.The sump i had was already modified in Japan complete with baffle kit and had a box the same as the internal diameter of the tomei kit that extended down about 3 inches below the baffle from memory. It works well but the Performance Metalcraft/Hi Octane item is a better option and the one i went with. It will hold more oil too.

The clutch pedal in my white gtr was abit hit n miss with the factory clutch line, fitted a maltec braided line, removed that extension bit that runs beside the gearbox, fitted a new slave, went to wsid and the clutch felt soooo much more solid that on the second run my flywheel parted company :D

I've been running my Pauter rods now for 5 years and 2 engine failures/rebuilds. Now partnered with a HKS stroker crank and shortened HKS coated pistons. They are almost indestructable.

haha thanks Ben I saw that thread....but the price is more than the rest of this car :) we're on this path for now, if we do ever give up I can't image anything except a chinese cooler going on :)

I have/had a chinese cooler and cant fault it.

Finally got my dry sump belts today which was the only thing stopping mine from being finished.

Then onto the next one.

what are u guys doing with the g sensor thats usually under the console? can u move it or wont it work correctly anymore? im thinking of throwing mine under the dash area to get it out the way (obviously mount it level and straight as it is now), do u think this would cause any issues?

Don't think it's a good idea to move it. I'm sure it will still work, but it will work best when located in the most central part of the wheelbase. I suspect it should actually be moved backwards a bit.

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
