Hey guys, I'm wondering if someone can hook me up with a cheap ebc for a 95 r33 gtst. I don't want to do the boost earth mod, just after a controller to run 9psi on stock turbo. Thanks Chris.

Nah, you pull out the boost solenoid, replace the old actuator with the RB20 actuator, block the hose going to the BOV return pipe and drive away with 10psi.

Yes. Leave the RB25 Actuator and boost Solenoid in and Earth the solenoid for 7psi or do my Trick and run 2 solenoids in parallel and get 9-10psi.

It's in the Boost Mod Thread... But why don't you want to do the Boost Mod? It's good, safe and it works all for Free.

Great u know yr stuff, if I choose to earth out the solenoid is this reversible and if I choose to eventually get a ebc will I encounter problems because I have cut the wire?

Wires can be reconnected. That particular wire will not affect anything else in any way, shape or form. ;)

Just do it.

I have done the solenoid Earth, 2 solenoids Earthed and the Actuator. Each was better than the previous.

Also RB20 actuators on mates cars. It's easy as. But the Earthing is Free. Have a crack at it.

You will not regret it.

other than, it will give you a hunger for more of that "untapped power potential"...

Please let us know how it turns out.

Don't forget, you don't have to "Cut" the wire, just strip back some of the plastic insulation and tap a wire into it there, then Earth it.

Do it to the Solenoid not the loom.

Simples. :D

Hi mate, completed the mod, went for a drive and wow, 1st has wheel spin now and 2nd feels more punch down low. Great little mod. I think I need some new coil packs as I have more hesitation in the higher revs now but works a treat. Or I need to regap the plugs as they are 1.1, boost is fun :]

Excellent, Gap them to 0.8mm and see how it goes. (Yes Boost IS Fun. :woot:)

Hey rob, i'm still curious as to what difference there is with earthing the solenoid compared to bypassing it completely.?

Earthing it is 7psi all the time, Bypassing it you will get Actuator pressure only.

(5psi stock) or as you (and I) have done, 10psi.

If for some silly reason you had the R32 actuator and the solenoid earthed and connected, you would get 12psi and it would be crap because of the ECU freaking out due to Too Much Boost / Air.

If either of you bought an SAFC and had that tuned, you would be amazed how much more power you get. :whistling:

(even though in the scheme of things it's not very much compared to the big boys 20psi+ etc.)

      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)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      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
