Drummond Motor sport have finished the coilovers but cant dial in the drive split.

Can anyone guide me (or them) through how to do it.

This is todays email about teh car tested with new coilovers.

"We had a good day at winton! results where good.

It was good to have both Jeff and Ben drive the car.

Jeff has a lot of experience and also does tyre testing with Bridgestone etc etc.

Ben has more experience in cars like the R35 (his evo uses a similar gearbox.)

Jeff did the first runs and Ben finished the day.

Ben's imput was important in regards to Race circuit use and Jeff's imput was important in regards to Targa type events.

As a Targa Car! the car is great and is very forgiving and easy to drive. (traction control on)

As a Circuit car! we need to do more work, we need to work out how to dial in the drive split.

The car with out Traction control: The car has power oversteer! this means the split isn't correct and needs to be adjusted for the race circuit to achieve the very best times from the car.

Ben said he was able to induce power oversteer at any time."

Hi Dominic

I had my R35 there last weekend

I would be very interested in what sort of times you were getting around the track in the R35?

Dominic I spoke to these guys about your vehicle.

There is no dialling of the drive split, its controlled by the VDC system mapping and driven by an electromagnetic clutch assy.

Its time we had a look at your transmission I think and rectified a small problem before it becomes a big one....

Either that or turn it into a drift car :blush:

      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
