lol I've just spent the last 3 years building a house with a 6 car garage :) It's just a question of leaving some work space. If I remember correctly, you have some brilliant workspace in a couple of different sheds, I'd kill for that :)

sorry I didn't give an actual update. after a short time sitting around this has kicked along again. 50,000 new hoses ordered from a ST lunatic in japan and the old engine is out. need to assemble new engine, replace heaps and get it rolling again.

unfortunately I have a "too many projects" issue. while this is a cool little car it is not first on the list (3rd, actually, behind finishing the ute, and the race car)

nah pretty sure there is no update. It would be nice to having it running again one day.

on the upside but only indirectly related, the ute is finished, it's running nicely. now onto the race car

oh, and yeah, the race car never really got a build thread. it was kind of built before the internet was invented. plus there was very little building, just lots of rebuilding HA HA HA.

here it was the day I picked it up

yeah mate it's the same car, we bought it from Marty. I knew it was rare but didn't realise it was famous until later.

there is one other registered ST I know of up in Brisbane, but it is also off the road for a rebuild at the moment AFAIK.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      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.

      Tomei gasket

      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.
