So I was driving my 32 today and decided to give it a little bit in 1st, hear a loud pop and it started running rough.. Now when I go to start it up, oil pressure is ok and it starts to idle but then it dies out :(

Does anybody have and ideas on what's wrong / how much I'm looking at to get it fixed?

Cheers,

Simon.

Yep, you have blown in intercooler hose off. I hope for you sake it is not the one behind the bumper bar on the passenger's side (which is the most common one) - you have to take off the whole undertray and ducting to get at it - it is a royal pain in the a$$.

Start the car (you might have to get someone to rev the car at 1,000rpm for it not to stall) and stick your ear in the engine bay and listen for a hissing or sucking sound to track down where your leak is.

Even better, pull the whole lot off and get someone to bell-end all of the metal pipe ends - that way the clamps have something to bite onto and will NEVER come off.

Remember you telling me this Andrew, just have to find somebody to do it.

Andrew at AM Performance?

Yeah I assume that Andrew can do it Cosi.

Or, my brother-in-law got Steve Cramp from Manta to do it for him, but I assume Steve removed the pipes and outsourced it - maybe give him a call to see if he does it himself or can tell you who does?

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
