The few cars ive driven with any form of tiptronic transmission ive been very dissapointed in, but they were mostly things like colt vrx's and stuff lol

i still think a proper manual is far superior :)

but its a decent compromise i guess.

Ill send the guy a fb msg n let u no thumbsup.gif

Yeah ive driven a v8 ford ute with a tiptronic thing too and it was really slow to react. I would much rather manual but if i cant find one i'll still be happy to settle with a tiptronic if its any good.

Jonno, you'll never buy another car lol.

Oh and tiptronic is for teh wimenz.

ill get there someday haha

got 2 VTEC Civics maybe for sale by some JDMWA members - but their only maybe for sale at this point - i have to try to convince owners after my exams finish thumbsup.gif

there havent been any manual EG's for sale on gumtree while ive been on exams - hopefully therell be some new ones by the time i finish :)

and brads 34 is tiptronic :P

Edited by Jonno34

I have now learnt not all auto 34's are tipronic, but i think most of them are. Still on the lookout and nothing is really shouting out at me yet. I think im gonna have to make do with a tiptronic instead of manual, which has pro's and con's like everything, but im not too phased by that really. I'd just be stoked to own one at all

    • 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.
