Send him a mesage; he's Russian but speaks English.
I'm pretty sure he runs a workshop; I'm sure he could point you in the right direction

Genuine.

I only have the PN for the entire turbo gasket set, which is worthwhile having if you plan to change the turbo one day. 14401-AQ826

Is yours damaged? I have never needed to replace one as yet.

found one @ just jap. i'll order one when i get the bc coilovers.

Perfect . thx for the advise. My luck is , that it would leak.

I ordered a new one today, along with a set of BC BR's from Just Jap. Going all out next friday. New Auto, exhaust & dump, HDI FMI & Bc's, R/C gaskets & a service... also a set of wheel bearings in the front..

Going to be a busy friday..

Hi Guys,

Mrs. and I are maybe considering a Stagea ARX four. The car will be for her.

Any common major issues to look out for? (Problems that would require me to take it to a specialist)

Plan on keeping it 100% stock.

90% urban use and shopping centre car parks. Other 10% country driving to the snow/holiday spots.

I plan to do regular maintence etc.

Use search function and you will find whaf you require.

Common issues

.turbo side cam cover gasket will split leaking oil onto turbo

.turbo blowing (oil starvaton)

.blow off valve farting

.restrictions in the dump pipe

.carbo build up in engine (apparent when you replace your cam gasket)

.oem boost controller will play up occasionally limiting boost at times

.banjo restricted.

Hope this helps. Im sure others can add to it

Mine is still going I think, I lent it to Jase a year ago. 13 years is pretty reliable if you ask me.

If only Nissan still sold that original part, not the part they sell now which only lasts a few weeks. (if you are lucky.)

My aftermarket ones seem to be lasting fine Leon... :)

Factory bov farting ? Is that the noise i hear at around 3500 on occasions, from the drivers sideof the car ?

Most likely. It's a weird sound. The stock BOV goes soft over time and farts as it isn;t strong enough to stay closed.

Grab a turbosmart Kompact BOV. Straight bolt on and will help hold boost if you start upping the boost at all

it happens every now & then in between gears. I'll be looking into the Kompact BOV asap.

Where does the factory boost guage connect up ? Mine is is always reading in the neg & occasionally goes to 0.

Is there a guage you can swap in it's orig place without going all ricer & mounting one.?

there is a common fault with them. they get dry joints on the sensor. there is a "how to" around done by scotty showing the fix. but the stock gauge isn't super accurate so if you are planning any major mods you will want a differant gauge. There are lot of differant ways people have mounted them so they dont stand out all ricer style

    • 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.
    • 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.
