N/A,

Shaun from Boost Worx tuned my car.

Steve,

What did you write to start with mate? EDIT: Forget that, just saw the bit you deleted. Yeah dude I ended up getting a Turbosmart Type 2 V port. I'm not interested in big trumpets and lots of noise, just high CFM capability, and the ability to hold big boost. Ben's Supra runs the same valve and it's never even looked like leaking, even at 28psi. Quite a few big boost/power drag cars use the same valve without dramas. That's good enough for me :) Annnnnd maybe it might have something to do with the fact it's blue/silver :)

I told a GFB rep about how much power/boost I was running with the GFB "Basic", he gave me a wide eyed look and said, "no wonder it was struggling, it's not made to handle those levels! It's actually a stout little BOV considering it didn't leak until ~18psi.

Lach,

Really well actually mate. He had a best ET of 12.1 and a best MPH of 120+.

Near on 210rwkw and bugger all weight certainly makes for a quick little car! Shaun can drive too! 1.7 60ft on one pass.

Cool, yeah driver and low mass certainly help.

Matt, you ricer:p I had one of those, they are nice and shiney, match your engine bay beautifully. Thank god you didnt get the type 3, they leak like a sieve.

I seriously think you should just borrow shaun's slicks, just for one run - just to see what you can do - my money would be on mid/low 11s:) Go on, as Danny would say, dont be weak....

Hahaha, yeah Steve deep down it's all about the Rice baby, itz fully sik mate :P I had a type 3 a while back, yep it wasn't the best.

I've been thinking about the whole drag tyre thing, I'm not that keen on full slicks (doesn't go with the street car theme - HPI drag challenge) but a smaller rim and larger profile might be on the cards... 15's or 16's with a bit more side wall. Shaun ran Yoko A032R's on a 14 or 15" rim and they were brilliant! Those ET Streets down at the workshop actually belong to Ben.

Lach,

Yep good call, low mass is another very big help, so much easier to get it moving off the line.

      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.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      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
