Hey guys.. just wondering what bucket seats you've got in your R34 GTT?

Has anyone had any experience with the justjap seats here?

Also what rails did you get for your GTT? I've seen some on ebay which say they're for 32/33/34 gts-t/gtt ... but I've always through the 34 gtt was different to the rest of the series?

i've heard that genuine bride rails would fit just jap seats by drilling 2 holes into the rails..

other alternative is look out for used recaros or brides with rails on them that bolt straight into the r34 less hassle?

I'd like to test-sit in some brides if anyone in Perth has some... I hear they are for skinny/malnutritioned people only. I'm a little wide-of-girth... So I'm not sure if I'll buy brides myself, or not..

I've been told Recaro's are wider, is this true??

Chris, you ended up with bride rails too? Thought you were getting your hands on those "generic" rails that thuy had for you?

not buckets but i put r32 gtr seats with rails into my gtt. 3/4 holes lines up. the rear bracket closest to the door needs to unpicked moved slightly angled and rewelded. fits like a charm. havent had any problems so far. and they pretty much blend in with the r34 interior colour

Got any pictures? I was thinking of putting some new seats in my R34, not sure if i'll go R32 GTR, R34 GTR or Some East Bear R34 GTR Copies.

I've been looking at the 34 east bear seats for my 32 as theyre about half the price of the cheapest brides :D othgerwise if i splash out ill end up getting BRIX II

Thuy ended up finding some second hand bride rails. I am not sure of the rail model, but they are a perfect fit.

I can probably put some pics up for the seats installed, might be able to get some rail pics too if I have the time :)

Yeah ^^

What'd you do about rails?

How much that set you back roughly bud? Pics?

You can buy R34 GTT rails for bride seats from Autobahn and other places. J-imports get them too, both Bride and generic from Japan but being in SA you might need to pay for double handling - extra postage cost, which may negate any savings.

I reckon they were about 1700 including all rails and shipping. Basically worked out to be rails for free. Can't remember exact amounts as it's all been payed for with other parts and in cash.

That's a negative on 34 rails from autobarn...32/33 only i'm afraid...

Oh damn... my mistake.

For a car that's been around for 10 years, they sure make it hard to find certain stuff compared with the other models. I bet those with V35's really struggle.

Hey guys,

I had been looking at bride rails on ebay.. and this guy advertised that he's got rails to suit r32/r33/r34 gts-t/gtt. When I asked him if the r34 gtt rails were different to the r32/r33s.. he replied

Hi,

Sorry for delay,

These rails suit the R34 GTT not the GTR's.

Thanks

I always thought 32/33 rails are different to 34's.... if so is he wrong in assuming they'd fit a 34?

Cheers

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!

      Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
