Just been thinking of using multiple throttle GTR plenum. However Im not sure if the runners for a R34 and 33 are the same. I could do away with cutting the runners by machining a adapter plate using RB26 N 25 gaskets as templates. However using an adapter would mean that i have to cut and re weld the water outleet so it doesnt crush the VCT solenoid. Using 34 runners would be good because i still have the same injector sitting angle. The downside is that i cant find any 34 lower runners. So it brings the question, are the 33 and 34 runners the same especially on the way injectors sit and fuel rail mounts. From looking at a few pics they dont look the same but when you look at the gaskets, they have the same part number.

Are the manifold o rings also 14mm

Do the 33 injectors sit the same way as 34 (o -rings and sitting angle) but atleast i know i can top put on top feed injectors on the 33 intake manifold given that i change the rail aswell. I just dont want to downgrade from an intake plenum which was better.

I dropped by Jaycar and saw a cheap set of 6000K HID bulbs, thought it would be good to restore the xenon lights so i got to task.Had to take my front bumper off to access the wires that were cut during compliance to stop the ballasts from supply energy to the light plug.

It was just a matter of connecting wires back together

But then after hours of trying to figure out what was wrong with the LHS light i swapped the ballasts and the light still worked indicating the supply cable within the light is Kaput. Not sure if i really want to open the inside of the light as its the one i use. Might just get a connector plug it onto the ballast and feed it through the side of the housing to the light

Yeh man, it's easy. Take off the 5 spring clips on the housing, and undo the two little screws on the park-light side. Remove all the plastic bits that you can, tuck all the wiring inside the housing, and pre-heat oven to 100 degrees, then headlight in for 8 minutes or so. Keep an eye on it in the oven and nothing will go wrong. Then use a screw driver to pry the lens away from the housing. If you need to pull too hard then put it back in the oven for another couple of minutes. Just do it slowly and you'll be sweet.

To put it back together, just reverse the process :thumbsup:

Whilst im waiting for the tuner to get back, I got a hi flow turbo for a steal price, as im not willing to stay at 180kw while i source out options for the turbo ill use. So the hi flow will be the super sub while I find a good contender to use. Have gone through so many compressor maps I can probably tell you the name of the turbo without even looking :P.

Im tempted to bolt up the hi flow but without tune it will probably run really bad. As for the injectors if i manage to loan a Nistune consult cable ill be able to change the injector size and latency so i can still drive it (My Daily) to the tuners otherwise ill just resort to getting it towed to the tuner.

meant as in drive it for a few weeks till the tuner is back, however I wasnt sure about driving it offboost on the day i take the car.Its certainly something i will experiment doing while i have the stocker but with the hills in my area. It will be quite interesting.

Thats good so you just gotta transfer your stuff from the 33.Except for a few things that wont work with Neos hopefully wont be much.

Very nice man good to see you a doing a thread on the build... Thumbs up!!

I see you learnt the hard way about spending a little extra on stand alone ecu's huh? Good work keep it up

I donno if I will be building mine like yours but chasing around the same figure.If it pops I'll get another stockie and repeat and transfer. If I had known from the start I would have got a standalone only a few extra dollars.

    • 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
