Hi guys, as the topic states ... I've got two studs stripped inside the head (off the exhaust manifold) ... they probably have to be drilled out im guessing, is there someone who can help off the forum (with payment off course) ? I have a new turbo waiting to go in, also what would the best place to buy exhaust manifold gasket and other gaskets be?

Thanks for the help :banana:

Get a Screw Extractor Set probs under $20 at your nearest bunnings or autobarn.

Personally I think a set should be in everyone's toolbox something like these are the fella's you want

hey ... I probably don't want to risk dropping bits back in the head ... so i'll leave it to the experts. I'm good with tools (going to install the turbo myself) but not that confident in stripping bolts out lol! I can even drive the car to see him so it shouldn't be a huge cost (hopefully)

i'll call him tommorow, and call nissan to get the gaskets.

Anyone here installed a tr43 on an r32 before? got a few questions i needed to ask :down:

thanks for all the help fellaz

Another vote here for the thread doctor.

Don't mess around with it yourself and cause more grief.

Good price / Good service.

In Ringwood from memory.

Came out to my place, I had about 3-4 exhaust manifolds snapped

in the R31head and he got them out fairly easily within 20-30mins.

This included removing a bit of snapped off bolt/screw remover aka 'eazy out'

(courtesy of my dodgy mechanic) like the one's in james k pic's above.

    • 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
