Since the last month or so I've had this weird vibration noise coming from behind the dash, somewhere around the glovebox and centre vent area....

It happens when braking due to vibrations until you come to a stop, and also does it now when driving, I've noticed if I'm on a smooth bit of freeway doing more then 90km/h or so it goes away

It sounds like maybe abit of plastic is slightly rubbing against something and the movement of the car is enough to make it vibrate

Any ideas what it could be or how to find the issue?

Very annoying !

GF's earings in the ashtray :whistling:

been in the glove box lately and slammed it shut??

done any work in that area lately - last few months

usb cable from the ECU ?

have to try stick your head under and grab and shake a few things gently and go through elimination

nothing I can say oh yes that happened to me and it's .....

doesn't sound like leaf litter etc..

(ps. I'll go grab some photo's of the GT'R's steering wheel today - still in shop :( )

edit: just a thought - you haven't got any crusty plastic dried out from age fall off. like front dimsiter vent clips

aftermarket radio chasis or screws..

I emptied my glove box still does it, doesn't sound like leaf litter or anything more of a metal on metal vibration sound

Haven't touched anything in that area either but I might remove my glovebox and see what I can see up there and if I move a bunch of cables and see how it goes

I don't want to remove my dash just to find te problem but if it continues I have no other choice !

Re steering wheel, thanks mate !

      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
