Hey guys

Reeeeall stupid qusetion and i cant find it no where

What is the exact sparking mesurement for the spark plugs (RB20DET)

Iv found n bn told 1.0mm

1.1mm

0.08mm

I had them all at 1.0mm and it was missing as i was coming on boost fairly mild

took them out made them bit smaller roughly 0.9mm and its running a hell of a lot better now top end high revs is missing???

Sooo im thinking its smaller again!

Just so i dont have to take it apart again, What u guys reckon

Cheers

Cheers KISIN! Yeah i found that, but the answer that person gave "Ummmmmm i reckon..... roughly 0.08mm" (WOW convincing much)

Which yeah i wanted to ask yous n find out EXACTALLY the messurement

0.8 not .08 sorry typeo!!

and yeh standard for RB25s as well.

Hahah thats what i ment as well!

0.08... That would be a very tight spark :P (haha... tight.... :thumbsup: )

With an N/A engine 1.1 is the standard and that is what most plugs are out of the box.

With a force inducted car you get away with what you can but most people will run around the 0.8 mark.

Also be careful with platinum plugs (which i will never use unless i own a car which is a bitch to change plugs) not to touch the electrode as the platinum coating is only a few microns thick and if you push a screw driver in their trying to gap a plug you will ruin it.

    • 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.
