Hey all,

Im about to put some tein mono flex coilovers on a r33 gtst. But what im curious about is which orientation the lower bush at the bottom of the coilovres goes onto the spigot. one side of the coilovers bush is wider than the other and is also flared. (the stockies dont help as they seem symmetrical on either side of the eyelet)

from what ive searched on the forum so far the flare should be in contact with the bolt (facing towards the centre of the car) but im just still unsure as the crappy little pictures in the paperwork the came with the shocks could possibly mean the other way... but they are so ambiguous...

Cheers

Camden

lol just posted up the same question for my tein super streets.. question answered.. cheers for posting the correct way :)

Did you buy Aussie or Jap spec SS? I only ask because the first person i spoke to at fulcrum didn't believe that any of there coilovers came with that type of bush setup we both evidently have..But maybe the Aussie stuff is different.

but i'm sure you got a similar manual to my mono flex... most useless drawings ever :)

    • 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.
