Did you put your car on a 4wd dyno? That usually shows a lower figure than in 2wd mode. I can understand your frustration but let me tell you this, don't take dyno figures as gospel, they are a tunin

Nothing I haven't told him on 3 occasions now since Aug 2010, even earlier it think. So basically what you are telling us is that 6 months down the track. You haven't taken it to the track yet? O

MAJOR THREAD BUMP :action-smiley-069:

i am in the quest of removing my HKS GTRS's finally - after deliberating for a loooong time, so i skimmed thru this thread which really provides some great reading & insight from others. they are just awful on a 2.6 to put it simple - i had enough!!!

paul - u are right that post no.7 by Gav sums it up as u mentioned on the UK forum.

with my 2.6, it is a built engine with tomei poncams (260's / 9.15mm lift) but i am a little undecided whether i would be happy with -9s (330rwkw) or -5s (360rwkw+). i'd like to know if anyone can share an overlay of these 2 snails, possibly? from my own due diligence, we are only talking a difference ~ 500rpm in low end boost response...

The following dyno graph tells most of the story, with the blue line being the GT-RS setup and the red line being the -5 setup:

#60 ADM DATSUN 2600: Coming from a pair of RSs, I'd point you in the direct of the -5s. Stepping down to the -9s I think you'd find the mid-to-top end to be... flat (putting it nicely). I personally love the -9s, especially for a streeter, however as you went for the larger HKS set-up from the get go I figure it's safe to assume that it's not factory like response that concerns you. If you want a quote on either drop me a line.

thanks for the advice - much appreciated.

i think u are right that i'd find -9s a bit boring as ive always liked the top end delivery BUT ive also thought to myself, maybe i need to enjoy the car for what it is as ive had my fair share of powerhouse donks. anyway, this is my personal dilemma :)

i'll pm u today.

A friend of mine has a -10 GTR with 400kw, states hes been taken in 370kw -5 cars which make him say WOW.

He reckons the haul of the midrange is very notable and better than the darth vader shuffle.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      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
