I am excited to see the results of this, great stuff.

Quick question, with regard to the wideband, why did you not go with the Innovate Motorsports WB which is reccommended to be used with the Vipec ECU's? Geniune question, I am not just being a d**k.

Red R Racing use Tech Edge, thats pretty much the reason. I went with their recomendations.

The vipec ecu was designed to work with what ever wideband sensor you want to use rather than one specific brand/model.

Yes, however in the manual it recommends the Innovative Motorsport WB. No drama, I would like to know why the Tech Edge was chosen by Paul. Good information to know especially to those (like myself) who don't have WB yet.

Anyway, sorry Bakes to digress.

maybe Mr. Dirt can elaborate...

its what we use and are familiar with...no need to change as they are very accurate.

Peter gives me a good discount too which helps.

All Mainline dyno's use Techedge units to read AFR...good enough for them...plenty good for me. :down:

Cheez Bakes those rims are growing on me they might just end up on that 32 next to yours LOL

:D Hahah Dave, I hope my car is not sitting on bricks when I come round next, or discover that I mysteriously have a new set of wheels that look a lot like yours ;)

Glad to hear you are looking forward to working on it Anthony. See you later in the week.

Yeah no probs, I had to give up Friday night races at WSID to get your car running so it can be driven to the Dyno.

Never mind plenty of time for the track.

I prefer Techedge Wideband, they are simple and easy to use and work great! Much smaller then the Innovate unit and much much cheaper as well and we are buying local for overnight delivery, and the support Peter gives us is second to none.

Sweet choice in turbo :woot: Let us know how it goes once it's done!

I should be getting my GTR back this week, with a freshly rebuilt forged motor with my own pair of GT2860R-5's strapped to the side... can't bloody wait!

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      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.
