ive been told by an engine importer that the 5 speed is weaker because its for NA and the innards of the trans are smaller to fit in the same basic housing as the 4 speed

and who knows what ratio 5th runs at?it may run at the same revs as a 4 speed at 100 kph therefore no gain in the 5 speed

probably not the exact same ratio, but it would be close. they usually the case in all cars. final ratio for top gear is usually the same because the cars have enough torque and get the best fuel economy with the gearing at a certain rev range

I imagine the "extra gear ratio" will slot between 3rd and 4th. As I feel there is quite a gap between 3rd and 4th gear in a conventional 4 speed auto box.

I thought all the automatic r33s got 4 speed gear box, but when I listen to my car, its voice drops 4 times after it lauches, I mean I can hear it changing gears four times after when it accelerates from the 1st gear, which means there should be 5 gears in it!! Is there really any 5 speed automatic gear box exist for r33? or my gear box is just wierd? or it changes 4 times just mean it's 4 speed?...

Can any expert give an answer...

Yes, there is a 5 speed auto.

From what I can establish, they were only fitted to 4 door N/A r33

      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.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
