im getting rid of my pod and going back to stock airbox coz i dont see the need in making a cold air partition or box when basically thats already what the stock airbox is, but im baffled about two things

1. whats filter to use in the stock airbox ? yes im boosting it, got a powerfc, getting a new fornt mount soon and everything so i guess ill need good flow, what filter should i use ?

2. when i get my enw trust frotn mount kit, will the stock airbox fit ? because if it wont i will scrap the idea about the stock airbox, get a good pod and build somehting custom to fit with the trust cooler

btw the car is an r33 gtst :P

thanks guys

many people seem to use the k&n replacement filters for the stock air box and i haven't heard any bad reports about it yet either, so the the flow and filtering must somewhat be good :D So i suggest you give that a little research.

lethal,

From what I've heard the K&N filter for the stock box is the way to go.

Also I have a custom FM cooler out the front of mine with the stock airbox......it depends where the pipes for the cooler are run. You can get FMI kits with pipes that need the stock box removed or not.....its your choice!

Most after market intercooler kits ensure that you will have to go a POD filter.

so before spending money on the panel filter, make sure that the intercooler kit you are after allows the box to stay.

Although, I guess you could always sell the panel filter off later.

I bought a second hand TRUST panel filter for a standard air box on my R32 for $50.

And you still get the sucking sound and bov sounds.. believe me..

      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.

      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
