ahh yeah not exactly busy with all the other stuff going on atm :(

I did pick up the wheels from craved the other day (they look swoit!) so I guess I better get some slicks sorted.

Its actually about 70% ready but that last 30% is going no-where atm

(bit slow lol)

yeah I need 2 because generally only 1 is working at a time :D

the car you went in (the production car) is great but lets face it.....it is missing 200kw compared to most cars around.

so Mark and I figured we may as well build something a bit quicker for fun. The production car is the serious one though and has the best of everything it can - this car on the other hand has cheap everything :)

it's likely to be 12 months before it's finished - our old work location is no longer available and my house is 9 months away - so stay tuned for this time next year :)

well....time to dust off this thread. Beleive it or not, the car has finally emerged from storage and will be worked on again in probably 3 months.

proper wheel is on the front, not the rear (don't fit yet after all the subframe mods, it is seriosuly low). And I mean the car not the trailer, where the right wheels are on the back not the front. Did grog make that last sentence make less sense?

fortunately for me it is moving to melbourne so I won't be getting my hands dirty for a while.

haha stable....that's exactly what i need to store all the cars :rofl:

lol michael as if you don't have 2 projects on the go yourself :P when is that race car going to be back on the track btw, was a shame not to see it at the national sprints at morgan park last month

damo, honestly can't remember. but they are a cheap forged one, originally bronze but we had Craved powercoat them white. they look excellent, hopefully they will be strong enough.....

BTW this bloody car better be seconds quicker than the production car. otherwise I'll burn the f**ker to the ground.

I know the feeling well Duncan!

I got about 8 on the go!

Half are mine the other half belong to everyone else!

Sad part is I have nothing to drive, I'm resorting to buying something else to drive!

Buy an evo :P

    • 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.
