Sounds like a nice list of parts

What turbo/s you going to run?

Come along on the 26th anyway doesn't matter what car we will only be doing the speed limit anyway

for the moment its going to stay stock turbos and ECU, dont have the cash to do the turbos and an ECU, i will be putting a set of HKS turbos in once i get some money and doing an ECU.

i dont have a car at all till i get the GTR back, she is daily driven :D if all goes weill i can pick her up on the 25th and go on the 26th tho, block is appart and being done as we speak, i totaly destroyed the 3rd and 5th bearing :whistling:

... block is appart and being done as we speak, i totaly destroyed the 3rd and 5th bearing :whistling:

Now me and the mad sceitist have to pull apart the block...sorry couldn't help it.

Its kind of a like a expensive safety feature with these cars...you'll get oil starvation and destroy the engine long before you loose grip...i still would have liked to see a larger sump on this build list for added protetion, but just make sure you overfill it by a 1L.

Also, make sure your builder cleans and checks everything throughly...you don't want to be pulling it apart again in 3 months cause of the bearing shavings floatin around in your block have destroyed the rings or something else....

if all goes weill i can pick her up on the 25th and go on the 26th tho,

Damn, thats pretty quick... cruise on 26th if you can make it...i don't think mine will tuned by then, but i might see if i can jump in with someone.

Sounds like a good plan

Motor should be well and truly run in after a cruise, just don't do to many freeway miles at first as the freeway and fresh bores are mortal enemies

LMFAO thats gold.

I dont have the cash for the sump and NItto pump could only do 1 or the other, im going to be using a stock oil pump with a set of reimax gears in her, the ballfes should deal with the oil starvation issue at hand with the restrictor in the head, its going to be my daily till i pay it off (1-2) yrs and after that ill do the sump and big oil pump and turn her into a monster.

From all the shops i have spoken to they all seem to think i will be fine with the OEM pump and gears as long as im not reving out to 10k rpm or anything crazy like that constantly. Ill be doing the 1L overfill also, btw what oil do you guys find to be the best for the GTR?

Hey guys, for those of you that dont know.... My clutch is now toast :P Didnt think it would last long at the power level considering it was way outside its happy zone!

Should have been double clutching not granny shifting :D

ANYWAY, that puts my car out of contention for the 26th as Jim Berry will be working his magic on my clutch around then.....

Ill still probably jump in with someone tho, CHOOKIE???? :woot:

yeah fair enough - should be all good

redline is the best, but you can only buy that in drums. Royal Purple or Motul 300V fully synthetic are the other great alternatives. 10-40w should be good for a daily driver.

lol...i was sort of wondering how long your clutch would last. Don't get me wrong - it still sucks that you toasted it. JIM's fully monty clutch is magic - zero slip.

My clutch & new flywheel ahould be leaving JIM's today - its a little different as its its a dual carbon clutch - superlight and responsive, but you actually need to slip it to put enough heat into so it actually grabs whens cold. It was a bit of a prick to get up steep driveways etc when the car was cold - JIM's almost doulbled the clamping force, so hoperfully it will be much better.

Yeah it was going to have a limited life which we knew from the start, makes me wonder if it has been slipping during the tune etc? Will find out i guess!

Mine is a sort of custom setup too, he said it'll be better than the full monty :D he was saying he does a bit of work for Paul.... Didnt realise he was meaning yours lol

The clamping force on mine will double over the Excedy button which should be pretty impressive! He said the heavy flywheel was the way to go for me, why did you go light?

my car's penciled in at JEZ's for a tune next friday, and cold start saturday...so at this stage i will be making the cruise if all my parts arrive and theres no hipcups etc My biggest concern atm is my injectors (only 600cc)...expecting to crack 400awkw (more hoping lol, just to say i cracked 400awkw - expecting more around 380 on finaly tune, i'm not going to be disappointed either way) so i should be pretty much at the limit for these injectors on paper.

so if everything works out, someone can jump in with me.

Dont you need a run in tune first? And 600cc? Really? :/

400 is a nice number ;) I will head there once i clear some debt, but mine will be RWKW for the skids! haha

that will be an impressive clutch lol - I actually didn't know i had carbon clutch till we pulled the engine out - was a nice suprice and explained the slippage. The hole clutch package (minus fly) only weighs like 3kg - much lighter then a normal twin. I just told JIM to machine me a billet fly wheel to match the clutch..so i don't know what i ended up with TBH.

I got the as part of a package deal from the US last year when i was going to do a -9 setup - brand new nismo MAF's, new injectos, midori modified intake pipe and nismo front pipe for $1200US - was pretty happy...although i sold the front pipes, not using the twin turbo pipe, going for a map tune (no mafs) and the injectors are probarly to small.

Whats this place. Ello peeps

ahh outsider :domokun: :domokun: :domokun: :domokun:

Yeah after a long long long conversation yesterday i learnt HEAPS about clutches and flywheels etc...... Lighter not always better, well rarely better in a lot of cars lol!

Dont run 600's man, you will only regret it and have to change it at a later date, do it right the first time :)

LOL, outsiders are OK, them wasteland boys bring the lulz :D

jim likes to talk clutch lol

...i'll make a decsion tonght. might see if i can pick some Id1000/2000 in sydney tomorrow

You'll probably kill the diff or driveshafts next LOL

I'll have a spare seat but might be a tight squeeze in the back of the car, though driving chooks does sound like a better plan

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • 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
