Hey guys,

I've recently just had to regap my current plugs in my rb25det to the .8mm mark to fix a misfiring problem I had because of air flow upgrades which has completely fixed the problem for now. However, I am thinking that I will be purchasing some NGK BKR5EIX-11 sparkies to fully replace these. Will I still need to regap these plugs down as well or not because of the better performance of them?

Cheers,

Dallas

The gap should go down as the boost level comes up, to a point.

Mine runs best at .8 @ 14lb, use to breakdown a far bit at .11 @ 14lb high rpm.

+1 for copper plugs, just change them at every service, cheap/easy and you always have a good plug, dont believe the hype for the plugs that they say last for 100,000k, they are good for the first 5,000 then average from then on.

There is a good thread in here about plugs, all about heat range and gap size.

You want BCPR6ES - the BKR plugs are slightly shorter or longer by approx 2mm (cant remember exactly)

The BCPR6ES are gapped to 0.8mm they are copper, they are cheaper and they work just the same.

If you really want to you can deposit the money I just saved you into my account.

Read the spark plug thread - all of it.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      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.
