Yep, that was mine.

Hmm, 750 bucks currently for a leather interior, popup screen, reversing camera and Nismo exhaust which are all in good condition.

Turbo, intake, dump may be okay, but I don't know.

Steering looks fine!!

Oh, and that headlight was fine Alex :P The other one, well that was in a million bits... instantly. Can't believe how readily they disintegrate!

Scott, and what radiator cap to you have Mr. Mishimoto?

Should've grabbed that damn G35 battery cover pinch.gif

Quick search for "battery cover" brings up this Paul whistling.gif

Any Nissan/Infinity dealer in the US, I went through West Covina Nissan for mine, but they are not so cooperative since Tony left.

Might even be some on Ebay Motors.

Should be a bit cheaper now though, I believe my mate got his recently for around the $100 but really needs to make up a couple of brackets.

How much factory bodywork did you need to cut? Any pics?

looks a lot neater with that cover.

Cheers

Yep, looks waaay nicer with one.

If you look at yours, you will see that there is an extra 10-15mm(?) of metal above the square rubber grommets for your hoses.

Cut that in line with the top of the grommets and run a brush with some rust prohibitive paint, then all you need to do is make up a small bracket for the top right section of the cover and cut a little in that area to fit :)

Surely they have some stupid hidden reserve for like 6k?

Yep, I was told they had $6k on it.

You can't cut the plastic cover?

I'm somewhat interested, but I can't find the run through from last time you did the group buy - am I just not searching properly? It's not on here or the 'somewhat awesome' forum as far as I can tell?

You won't find one.

GB didn't go ahead and it was only after I installed mine that I thought of offering the GB.

I think you can cut the plastic cover, but I couldn't see doing so would end up with a satisfactory finish so I cut the top strip of metal instead.

No need to worry Ryan, it is not a big job.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      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.

      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.
