if you're going to upgrade the Turbo (why not when you can get stock like response but a heap more power) go for the Hypergear SS highflow - around 250rwkw and very similar response to stock. You'll prob need a Z32 AFM, but you MIGHT be able to get away with it. I maxed the resolution at around 240'ish rwkw on my old GTT.

You'll need a GOOD intake pipe made up as well if you switch turbos. The old 'shove a metal pipe in' has it's limits, you'll need something custom made up - DON'T go the silicone options, waste of time. Metal, metal, metal.

Injectors are a much easier deal now-a-days, just grab some Injector Dynamics injectors. Start around the 725cc mark, but i'd prob just get 1000's to allow for E85 :D Or get the 'no-name' variety of Bosch EV12 (i think) style injector, that's what the ID's are based off.

I went nistune, hypergear highflow, stock airbox, stock BOv, highflow panel filter, return flow IC (plus other supporting mods) for bout 5+ years with GTT - never any cops drama's at all. Make sure the exhaust isn't too loud, and following all the great advice already in this thread you'll have a mean car that's still quite stealth. 250rwkw in a GTT is a lot of fun :)

But please please look into your tyres/suspension/brakes as well.

Swaybars, do eeet! Cheap and fantastic handling upgrade - Whiteline.

Tyres, my car liked the KU36's, but alternatively i'd prob splash a few hundred more on some AD08's from tirerack

Brake cylinder stopper, check ebay, very cheap.

Check brakes over, bleed, put some good fluid in etc (RBF600)

But yeah, would be a good idea to check the spring rates if you can. Get some swaybars for sure though! :D

have fun

Listen to this!! +1

yep.. stock parts work the best in some cases.. that goes for FPR, BOV's etc

what if i continued using the hks bov and add a plumb back adapter to it? would it be better than stock bov?

will the sound still be loud? and will it be defected?

thanks

It will be still quite loud, louder than stock, being as it is shiny you will probably get incorrectly defected for it (it is legal if plumbed back) no matter how much you show them it is in fact plumbed back.

It won't be any better than stock for your goals.

The standard bov is a recirculating bov which means it is allowing some air out even off boost. In that way it is different to all aftermarket bovs. This means that the tune will have to cover this up. My tuner recommended keeping the factory bov as he said its easier to tune and normally ends up with a much nicer result.

can you elaborate on this please?

The stock bov is recirculating, as in it recirculates the air back to the intake and doesn't release it to atmosphere, though some does leak back out the air filter. If you have it vent to atmosphere it means the air is metered by the AFM, but is then vented to atmosphere, this means the car injects fuel for air that isn't there and hence runs rich when throttling off causing backfires and stalling issues. Also the stock bov leaks on vac and idle, essentially bypassing the turbo intake which is a restriction on vac which is a nice feature.

    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • 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
