Pulled the gearbox apart and what a mess! That's what 'clicking 3rd' with hot 295 AO50's will do to a 33 gearbox!  With some bits purchased from another donor box and help from Donny at For

Clean and up in the air. Final bits of work required to hit the track in November.

Wow. Yeah it has been a long time since an update in this thread. It's been laid up for a while. Sitting on stands and collecting dust. The last 2 years of my life has been a case of home renovation

Really great pics Kory! Very impressive... No doubt a couple of those to make it to the Nats site for Russman's feature :D

Good write up man. Enjoy your success because I am going to kick your ass at the SAU Nationals!

:rofl:

You'll need more than 9000rpm of RB20 me thinks

RB20 has run away from home and had not been heard from :) Something about spending too much time on the Sierra

Ok thanks. How thick was the ally used?

Um... 3mm I think. It's thick and stiff but still needed the supports. Would love to make one out of CF cos this one is so heavy!

Do u feel like it made a big difference? Is it worth the extra weight? Defs look like u did a clean job there bud! :)

I think it definitely made a difference. Does it feel different? dunno... Lap times speak for themselves. 3.9 sec quicker than last year at WTAC. That was a combination of aero, power, less weight.

What I did notice was that even though I had heaps of understeer on low speed corners, high speed corners it felt very planted and not a hint of understeer...

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      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.

      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.
