Hey

Thinking about up grading the front brakes on our M35(when it arrives) to R34 GTT.

I looked in the brake thread but it's all over the place.

So can anyone confirm if the GTT discs and calipers will bolt straight on? I understand the brake line might need some work but that's easy to take care of.

Cheers guys.

Cool. So the r34 gtt caliper uses a larger mounting bolt than r33. I'm assuming the M35 also uses the larger mounting bolt or am I wrong?

If this is correct I shoulnt need the bolt sleeves.

34 GTR front Brembos are definitely 324mm, I will have matching sized disks as the Z33 rear Brembos are 324mm also. (Same as the later BNR34 rears.)

I got the Brembo disks machined yesterday, he had issues cutting them they were so hardened. Grade 8 he said. They required a carbide cutter to face, not bad. :cheers:

296 = R33 GTST and R32 gtr except 2mm thicker.

310 = R34 GTT

324? = R33/34 GTR

this is correct

non brembo r32 gtr is 296x32mm, r33 gts-25t is 296x30

r34 gtt is 310mmx30 and r34 gtr is 324mm (i forget what thickness)

everything r32 and r33 has 12mm bolts up front, r34 gtt and gtr brakes have 14mm bolts up front

on a side note, the 2 pot rears are the same from r32 to r34 :)

i thought 350z calipers etc was the M35 upgrade?

its the better option because you get 324mm rotors if you get the brembos

but brembos always carry a premium price

i thought the rotor hat height was the main difference between R33/34 and 350Z? being that the R34GTR brembos have a height of 53.8mm and 350z brembos a height of 49mm. clearly if you match the caliper to the rotor you should be right but depends on the hubs being the same. so if you fitt R34 brakes to your M35 they will sit in further than standard (better caliper clearance?)

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree.
