Hi All,

I was looking at my car today and noticed that the subframe bushings are cactus :) so obviously they need to be replaced quick smart. Only question is where can i get some Polyurethane bushes for my r32 gtr in Vic they seem to be a hard thing to locate on google. Also is it a do at home job or is it something I should let a suspension shop deal with. Also what are prices am I looking at for a) the bushes and b) an install by a pro

Thanks in advance

Andrew

PM this guy what you are after.

If you talking about replacing the whole subframe bush, that would involve lowering the subframe to get them out. Talk to Traction Tyres in rowville. http://www.tractiontyres.com.au/

When I did the subframe bushes in my 32 I bought the ones from shocksystems, worked well. Absolute prick of a job to do though, a press would have made things easier but even still it's a punish! I called a couple of places to get quotes on getting it done and they said they weren't interested, most places said we just put pineapples in. Pineapples help but replacing the whole bush is soooooo much better

Yeah Pineapples just seem to be a bandaid fix, I would really like to replace the whole bushing. Also I hear it can be an epic job labour wise, Would it be in my best interests to get like most of the rear bushes on the car done at the same time?

      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
