went to drive it this morning that little gauge abve the fuel gauge is reading -7 last time i drove it it was reading 0 does this gauge actual;ly do anything?

since noticing this my car doesnt drive/idle properly at all turbo sometimes spools when it does it hits some sort of cut.... i dont think its fuel cut as its only on 12psi and when it does boost sounds like it has a screamer on it

That guage is the factory boost guage -7 is negative (about) 1 bar (14psi) and the last time it was on zero is becuase you didnt have it connected or blocked off... if its still not connected and showing -7 you have a massive leak...

Your problem could be one of many and you havent given much detail on set up, i.e. spark plug type, coil packs, afm, fuel pump etc etc

Also other symptoms like missing or pinging

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
