Hey guys, i just wanted to see if there is any interest in having their car stripped back via soda blasting? My partner and i are getting to the stage where we want to take control of our own income instead of relying on someone else to tell me how much i can earn lol. We're in the process of trying to organise finance and equipment and will hopefully be all set up and ready to go within the next 6-8 weeks. So we're basically testing the waters here to see if anyone is maybe building their latest masterpiece and needing to strip back the original colour, building a racecar that needs blasting inside and out or even someone who has their own industrial equipment that they want cleaned down/stripped for repaint. Or even stripping single panels for repaint. How much realistically you would spend in having the whole car stripped or even just stripped for a doors shut respray etc would be helpful too. Any other questions you can pm me etc or just reply in this thread. Thanks guys.

Btw, for anyone else that jumps forums like i do, yes i've asked this on other forums as well. Just looking for some info and a bit of indication of potential customer thoughts/needs.

Whereabouts are you? I've got a couple of small flaws which I'm looking at getting fixed in the future. I dont mind showing you and getting a rough idea on how much it'll cost. Maybe PM your number and we can arrange for something next time I'm back in town.

    • 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.
