Hey all,

I need help with deciding which intercooler i should go for.

I currently have the Greddy LS/type M kit on my ER34

I was thinking of purchasing a R34 GTR intercooler and have custom piping made.

Will have either a HKS GT-rs or 2835 hanging of the side soon

Power output i'm expecting would be 250-280 rwkws

Which of the two do you think would be better?

Any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated

Basically, i'm more interested in knowing if the GTR intercooler will flow better? It will have custom pipe work that will return to factory pipes, unlike the sistuation at the moment.

what you have now is far more suited to your setup.

Your intercooler is superior to the GTR in flow. Have a look inside the GTR cooler and see how small the tubes are, for the life of me I don't know how they make the power. Mind you I'm not talking about cooling ability here as those same small tubes allow the cooler to scrub more heat out of the air. I just think for a street car that only uses small bursts of power that flow is more important since your chasing throttle response and power. I noticed a crisper throttle response from the Hybrid cooler when I changed it over from the Just Jap cooler. Seemed to have more torque and ran smoother in general and it wasn't just me as Luis from Drift Garage noticed the same thing.

    • 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.
    • 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
