Was not a good sight to see your car modified by the armco rail but at least you and your brother are o.k.Thought you might have kept the car and transplanted the good bits into something else hope to see you at another SAU event in something else as long as its a nissan ...

Mick,

Thanks and thought about transfering bits from the GTR into 32 sedan I've got sitting outside but decided to sell it.

At the moment, looking to obtain 33 GTST for second time (had one before the GTR).

Cheers

Grant

Best of luck for a speedy recovery Grant; it's never a good thing to have a car accident but gladly it happened in a controlled environment with help at arm's reach.

Thanks Jim.

hey mate was gutted when i found out what happened :) hope u and ur bro are ok and have a speedy recovery.......

dont let it get u down it happens to the best of em....

Thanks mate.

Sorry to hear the news mate :)

Went through something similar myself at Phillip Island a couple of years back, and really good to hear that both of you got out of the car relatively unscathed. Sounds like everyone there did a stellar and professional job to look after yourself and your passenger.

im so sorry to hear this. but at least both of you are fine and thats the main thing. it seems you were not meant to own this gtr i had the same things with my old car and it ended with an accident too. :)

all the best mate and good luck looking for a new car (which i actually love doing lol)

At least you and your brother are ok Grant, thats the main thing.

Its always sad to see a GTR as nice as yours get banged up.

The good thing is is that theres always something bigger and better to look forward to in the future.

Hope to see you again at Decas with whatever it is that you decide to buy! Although I was thinking 26 into 4 door....would be fun!

Thanks, yes I'm gutted about the R considering I've wasted so much money and have some parts to go into it, will have to sell them...

Yes the organiser did a stellar job in looking after me and my brother.

Thanks, yep it does seem like I'm not aloud to own a GTR... I know what you're on about with looking for the replacment (love it too but lately, carsales haven't co-operated with me).

Shit so sorry to hear this... I remember just meeting you last deca and was admiring ur car... U even took my friend for a ride.... Well glad you and your brother are fine... Get Well Soon!! :D

Yes I remember you and your friend were admiring it and I took your friend for a ride last DECA.

Mat, thanks for the kind words, won't be doing 26 in 32 sedan cos I've already sold the wreck this morning and is trying to get a friend to buy the sedan.

And I'm kinda 'banned' from DECA by my parents... And is talking to them now.

Hamish, I'm unsure about these pics being posted on this thread but won't ask you to remove it.

Niroj, yes that's decent stack.

:)

Glad to hear your okay, and sorry to hear about the GTR. In the end though a car is replaceable, life and quality of life isn't; however I'm sure that doesn't make you feel any better.

Hope things pick up soon.

Chantalle

Chantalle,

Thanks and I'm feeling lot better since I've sold the wreck and it's somewhere out of my sight. So I don't have to walk past it everyday.

And am sourcing a replacment but won't rush into it now, got other things to worry about.

Cheers

Grant

    • 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.
