Yeh, pain in the ass! I was coming home just as it hit too!! Grrrrr, got a few dents on the roof, but what pissed me off the most is that on the Tulla, a tree fell down as I was driving past, swerved and missed most of it, but what I didnt miss went through my front bar! Lucky it missed cooler and oil cooler!

your worried about front bar? you could have come off very ordinary on the tulla, v lucky it wasnt any worse

my 33 has got a fair few good dints it

i would hardly call it a write off though

just pin dents all over

sounds bad, but isnt "that" bad

i wonder how much to pop them out in labour

I was caught in the hailstone storm lastnight around 6pm in Western Ring Rd :(

Traffic was stand still for around 90mins and i was in my brother's six months old VW Golf!

Car was in pretty bad shape and there was lots of dings on the roof + bonnet.

Lucky no damage to the windows and man we were so scared!

Marble sized hail. There was a lot but my mate said it wasnt damaging. The bad thing was the rain. some places flooded around half a foot.

      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)

      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.
