Its good to see you series two M35 guys know where to post. lol. :P

Alex, if the auto takes heaps away what's mine really putting out? I would think a modern auto would be nearly as efficient as a manual.

On topic, go for the 34 gtr callipers if you can as the bolt size is the same. If you want to go the cheaper 32 gtr option I can make you the spacers you need for the 12mm bolts if you want.

34 gtr? arent they brembo? i was just after the alloy 4 pots from a regular turbo model...

Brake lines, no. dust shields, probably. Hub alloy, maybe.

The only thing you need is the bolt sleeve spacers that Scott has mentioned. You don't need these if you use r34 gtt, or r34 gtr. Everything else I think you need them. Remember to get calipers with all the shims and bolts.

It's a pretty easy job if your DIY inclined.

oh yes, DIY is my first middle and last name. just need the research to be thorough and parts to be right before making myself temporarily carless.

sounds like i'll be leaning towards 34 gtt's if i can find them complete for $200

are you talking shims as in the ones between the pad and the piston?

The earlier 32 and 33 brakes had a 12mm bolt, from the 34 onward Nissan used a 14mm bolt so you will need to put a sleeve around the 12mm bolt to space it out to the 14mm hole if you use the older front brakes.

Yes, those shims. You don't want your great new brakes to squeal like a stuck pig.

The other option if you don't want to use sleeves on the early models is you take the brakes to a fab shop, and get then to drill and thread the holes out to 14mm. Presto they fit the bolts.

$200. Your keen. Might be waiting a while then. Review your pricing guideline with a look through the brakes in the F/S section, then, factor in that you will most likely need new pads, and a disk machine. Oh, and pay Scotty for the sleeves.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
