OK, correct me if im wrong but this is my understanding for the huge price difference inbetween these two products....

The Turbo smart product is basiclly a bleed valve (or two in the dual product) which bleeds air from the moment 1psi is reached alot like a normal bleed valve. Making the car reach its pre set bleed value. Not the fastest way to reach the boost value required...

AVC-R on the other hand is all electronic and has an electronic bleed valve which wont bleed any air until the boost value is achieved therefore because no air is bleeding during build up to set value the boost will come on faster....

For example, if 10psi is set then the car will boost to 9 or 10psi with no bleed and then the electronic valve will kick in the hold that value. Also will stop any boost spikeing.... Yeah

If this is correct then i will buy the AVC-R...

The other advandage is that the boost value can be set in cabin which is an odvious advantage and theres no stuffing around with setting the bleed. (ie. pull over and turn the dail a little until the boost is achieved)

Im pretty sure this is the way they work. But i also under stand that their are many other types like a G-Reddy E-Boost product and of course there are many others.

Can you state which youe think is the better product and price and why???

Thanks

OK i have found the price of a Brand New AVC-R using the one of the sponcers web sites and its only $646.15 AUD plus shipping of about $40... Pretty cheap really....

Anyone got any thoughts of were i might buy a new one in Australia tho.... Im not sure if i can wait a few weeks for it to come from Japan...?

Or can someone suggest a better or similar product and give a price and location of where i may get one... And why you would choose this over say the AVC-R???

So you would only use an AVC-R....

Is that what ya saying...

I dont mind paying a bit more if i can get it now...

ie. Autobarn Virigina said they will do one for $980 neat.... I think ill just buy it from them... In case you have a problem you then have someone to take it back too...

I under stand what auto barn does... but at least if they send it its their problem...

Cost of postage, if it goes missing... blah blah blah...

Anyway i get auto barn vouchers from work... I will only take a month to get $1000 so its really free when you think about it.... Thats why i really wanted to buy it from them... Cause it will cost me nothing...

Like i get my oil, filters and stuff they every service cause it costs nothing...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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.
