This is a good thread for potential GTR owners....buy a GTR, then budget the cost of purchase for onging maintenace/upgrades/surprises. Still beats playing golf for kicks though!

Hope everything is progressing well.....very keen on updates!

What dumps are you running??

standard dumps

Standard Dumps???

I Cant believe you went to the trouble of changing out turbos, fabricating custom front pipes & exhuast and then left the biggest restricting factor in the system on there...

Not sure if anyone else has suggested but if they are the cast ones...they are only good as paper weights, get a set of the stainless R34 GTR Dumps at a minimum...

Watching this space!!!

I made 340rwkw @ 18psi through stock R33 GTR dumps without a problem at all.

Put on Tomei ones when i put on -5s (compared to other -5 setups using stock dumps, same spec built engines/dyno), the only difference... The exhaust note sounded different. So probably not the best $600 I'd ever spent.

thanks for yuor honesty! I actually sold my tomei dump and manifold before even using them, used R34 one and r34 ported manifold instead.

    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools. Buy Genuine Nissan 48700JF00D (48700-JF00D) Lock Set-Steering. Prices, fast shipping, photos, weight - Amayama
    • 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.
