1. Look at the your fire extinguisher, it will have a maximum temperature written on it somewhere (well, it should).. if it's less than 50degC, I wouldn't leave it in the car on a hot day. At the very least don't have it mounted in direct sunlight.

2. Not that I know of.

3. Yes, the stock dump pipe AND front pipe, are rather restrictive.

4. Don't do it. If you really have to, be smart about reinforcing the areas that have been removed.

1) what bubba said - that said... i would say most AUST approved fire extinguishers would have to be designed to withstand our oven-like temperatures so you should be in the clear there...

2) give these blokes a call http://www.cplastix.iinet.net.au/

3) with skylines... any custom built and properly fabricated exhaust component will give better performance than stock "economy" considerate / cost cutting material... so yeah i'd say so..

4) i dunno man... wadda YOU reckon? do you reckon it'd be a good idea to hack up a structural crash absorbing thick piece of steel on your car for the sake of a bit more airflow?

...i didn't think so either :P

all the best!!

4) depends on ur front bar, i had to make some alterations due to the design of my greddy front bumper (n1 air ducts).

if you take out the reinforcement bumper there will be nothing but ur radiator support bar in the way if you get into a front end collision.

if u do get in a front end collision without it, the front of your car will be f*kd

    • 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.
