I called into ATP today for a highflow after removing my turbo, what a job. There are a few bolts that were obviously never meant to be accessed without the engine out, took me around 3 hours.

Kip the owner of ATP is a top bloke, easy to talk to. He helped me choose the right combination of wheels for the power I wanted and showed me how they go together with another one he was doing at the time.(thanks Jason) I would love to go back in when the assembly is done on mine just to say "I rebuilt it" :)

Suspension is next, I have a shiny new set of BC racing coilovers to go in, from just jap. I tried to upload a pic but no go.

So where are the details and pics of your turbo?

Secret mens buisness apparently, no cameras allowed. :( I did ask for you.

I was going to get some pics of the car too, but theres not much of it left.

Heres a pic of the coilovers tho.

10/8? thats gonna be VERY firm you know?

Yes, but no.

Most M35 suspension is over 8 for both.

I know the Nismo's have over 9 at the rear.

The only suspension I can think of (off the top of my head) that is under 8 for front and rear are the Kenstyle which are lowered and around the 5 mark - which is waay too soft imho.

i guess its a heavier car, and you might be able to adjust the dampers to 'soften' the ride a little.......

i still think its gonna be a teeth rattler and a boob hurter. my yellow s15 had effing hard suspension and no girl would get in it as it really hurt their boobs. you dont wanna risk that in your shagin wagon :(

I went back to kewish today just to stop you buggers whinging. The box is empty. :P and so is under the car. I will get some secret pics from Kip's workshop if possible. He rang me today and talked me into a larger again turbine wheel, bugger, I hope theres not too much lag. should be good for 250 or more, if I want to go that high. The box will handle it at least.

    • 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.
    • 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.
