just look up the sections at the top of the main R35 page if you cant get the links going.

Maybe your browser is blocking things

dead thread. this thread is dead.

I have been reading too much Dr suess to the kids.

The Slotted rotors and MX72 pads went well at the track the other day. quiet as a mouse too during my daily commute.

keen to try the carbotechs though in the future.

the carbotechs will squeal like a p.ig with OEM, slotted or jhook rotors. However the jhooks do make a "clicky" noise with the jhook sliding/cutting over the pad surface, nothing near as bad as the carbotech squeal. FWIW, i've switched to the MX72's and personally i have found them very kind to rotors, virtually squeal free, cheap, probably 90% the performance of the carbotech xp12's - good for my requirements.

09 GTR and I tried the MX72's but at bathurst last year the front backing plate on the pads delaminated. They just couldnt handle the heat. Maybe it was the track?

I find the carboteks much better anyway than the MX72's.

If you order them yourself from the USA they are cheaper than the MX72's.

I can give you my contact in the US if you want it.

Interesting about the backing plate. I'll have to check mine out. I guess bathurst is anpother kettle of fish. FWIW we can get the mx72's for $699US a set.

Thats a pretty good price. So converts to about $800 Aust delivered?

I can get the Carboteks for about $700 Aust delivered.

      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.

      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
