Hey Guys and Gals.

Hows it going.

Im Tyler.

17yrs old. Yes still a p plater.

I have a 1994 R33 gtst. Love it and guard it with my life haha.

Yes im only a p plater but my dad and I have an attitude where stuff can sit around and be built into something special when im allowed to drive it.

We bought it about 6months ago and the engine blew up on us. So its in getting a forged engine and turbo upgrade ecu etc etc.

Been in the shop for about 2months. Going to be used as a weekender or fun car and occasionally taken to the track so I can give it a hard time.

Instead of blowing tonnes of cash on the car why not save up and buy a house and move out? Sorry for the sensible suggestion.....

Why are you going for forged pistons? Have you seen how much power stock pistons can handle?

My dad and I already have money for a house. We are just waiting till the right time and place comes along.

We only paid $3,500 for it. We knew the engine was gone.

It was running 25+psi we knew that was gone.

Its at the shop in Blacktown Nsw Meer Motorsport.

Mate this is my first post I hardly know how to use this whole site thing yet....

Don't stress about it. People on here get nervous about others doing the wrong thing by the licencing and road laws when it comes to Skylines. So maybe choose words carefully with that in mind.

Build threads are kept here.

      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
