Having driven all of the cars in that picture(yes I am gloating)....The Winfield R32 without a doubt.

But I still love the R31 for the excitement!!

Having driven the GMS R31 in front of a crowds ( although usually jumping the start ), I'm surprised your head fits in any of the other cars :P

I'd have to take NEWGTR. Clearly it's driven by someone who can't park, and the car deserves better than that :)

lol @ fatz

For a lap round the track I'd take the R32 in less than a heartbeat, and it would come back with bald tyres and no fuel.

:):)

Yes, R32...

despite the fact that one of my patients who'd just become a non-smoker said,

"You must be the cigarette company's worst enemy!" :D

GMS R31: I can push this car car to the limit and feel comfortable with the response given through the chassis in either understeer or oversteer....not meaning that it's faster just more forgiving at the limit than the R32.

GMS R32: Considering I have only done about 40 laps with it at pace the only feedback that I can give is that to take up to the 85% margin it was very easy to drive....no loss of grip and heaps of low down grunt. Beyond that you would have to have a bit more time in the car...it would be very easy to put on the roof. I also didn't find it that much quicker in a straight line than the R31, but the grip coming out of the corners was awesome. Power steering and sync box made it easy to drive as well.....but you do feel the weight.

Maybe I'm old school but I still love the R31.....I just think I could get much more out of it at the limit....not saying I would be quicker....just the fun factor would be greater.

Having seen them all his weekend, the 31 is very exciting to watch. (Thats me sitting behind the R35 with the cap on in the first photo). The 32 just grabs the attention though, everywhere it goes. After hearing Jim Richards and Mark Skaife echo jetwrecks comments almost word for word, it seems the 31 has the nod for fun to drive. I would find it very hard to make a choice, I would want them all, for different reasons.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      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
