hey guys, sorry to hijack but I didnt want to start a new topic.

Basically I want to get 25mm spacers for my GTT. A lot of people are recommending the H&R ones? I'm wondering why this is? Anyway, I can get the H&R ones sent from the US (http://www.optionimports.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=HR5065662) for $220 or buy the Just Jap ones (http://www.justjap.com/store/product.php?productid=17024&cat=269&page=1) locally for $140. Any thoughts or comments?

The problem with the hub centric ones is if you go any smaller then around 25mm you have to cut a little of your old studs, unless you wheels have cut outs or extra holes for you old studs to stick through.

Either way spacers are dodgy and illegal and cause to many probs, I had nothing but dramas on my 31 even with hub centric spacers.

Its essential to have the correct hub size or use adapter rings. In NZ the max thickness allowed is now 20mm - you may want to check if there are any state rules about spacers. I can't imagine why they should cost over $200 unless they are made of titanium.

      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.
