yeah my tip is its a prick of a job, give it to a workshop :banana: you need to press the bushes out of the front of the diff which means somehow supporting the whole heavy thing at the same time. thats after the stuffing around on the ground to remove it, and before the pain of getting it back into place.

let someone with a hoist and proper press do it.

I've used noltec and superpro ones and can't tell the difference

Duncan is right!

However, if you want to do it yourself, this is how I did it:

-it is a diff out job, yes

-drill out the rubber

-use a screwdriver and carefully fold in the flange on the bush

-spray with a s**tload of crc and leave it to penetrate

-work them out with a hammer and screwdriver

It is not pretty, fun or quick. I thought the neighbours were going to call the cops as I was screaming f'n c's all weekend!

I am going to go with the Unique Autosports bushes and make up some new inner sleeves out of stainless steel.

i was thinking going with unique bushing as well , you get everything you need with them by looks of things

i guess allow 2-3 hours for installation of this?

once diff is out any other maintenance that can be done at same time?

With the Unique option you do not get the inner steel section of the bush you have to re-use the old ones. I f**ked mine up trying to get them out, so getting new ones machined up.

Have not got to the installation part, but it took me a whole weekend to get the subframe bushes and the diff bushes out the subframe (having regular breaks to regain my sanity).

2-3hrs? Not a chance.

i was thinking diff bushes only not sub frame tho, or does sub frame have to come out as well?

does anyone else include inner steel sections .....whiteline or superpro ?

You have to pull the subframe out.

No I do not think so, otherwise you can always buy OEM but you are up for over $140ea.

    • 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
