this thing sounds horn! I'm not game to nail it but I can say that by the sound it has it WILL go.

those that have seen it would have noted the camera setup. I had a problem to sort on that this morning.

Thanks chris, the setup is awesome. I can't wait to see the fine tuning.

For those that don't know I got Chris to hook up my video box system and output it to the multifunction display. Works really well and is quite practical for car setup/monitoring at the track.

All the wiring and cameras have been nicely installed and wiring hidden so there is no fuss when heading out to the track or running it on the street.

Currently in hospital with wife for the birth of my 3rd kid and only son (he is a little champ!) so won't be till early august that I get the car back out on the track with some more tweaks, can't wait!

congrats Mark. Bugga, I was looking forward to you dishing some more pain on the porka's tomozz.

Haha! Will have to wait until august Noel. Hopefully we can smash the Porsche cup car times then! Look forward to catching up mate.

ok, the car weighs in pretty hefty but htat won't suprise anyone.

1734kg without driver, empty tank and without the rear wing (Aeromotions R2.two about to be installed). this is with the 20 inch HRE's and Bridgstones on them, they are about 0.5-1.0kg per corner lighter than stock.

will see how we go over the few months getting some weight off it!

thanks!

as for what we will be looking to do:

wheels and tyres (track setup already inplace but the above weight is with the street wheels)

seats (remove passenger seat, racetech bucket seat for driver)

Battery

surge tank (purpose two fold - we maxed out the walbro's and allows running less fuel)

stereo, interior trim, carpets

track exhaust setup

CF panels (as the budget allows)

then maybe other creature comforts/doors/dash and sound deadening if I can make the tough decision to go mental or not on such a nice car.

driver will be losing some weight too. about 5kg of sympathy weight gain during the wife's recent pregnancy.

5kg off me probably saves me about $5,000 worth of carbon fibre!

HAhahaha. Too true.

Just loose it with cycling so you have a lower centre of gravity :D

the quality of the bumper looks fantastic, and it definitely looks tough. will see how fitment goes. nice pics showing the ducting either sode of intercooler iopening. hopefully we can make use of these though I suspect things will be tight back there once on!

    • 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.
