I'm sold on the quaife front diff on a BNR32.. Right now I'm driving a OEM rear diff which is , most likely, 25 yr old! I have a ATS 1.5 way LSD lying around ( I put it for sale but no one bite the bullet yet..). Should I install this diff or sell it and buy a quaife in the rear OR just run the oem one ?

thanks!

I'M afraid the cost of rebuilt will be close to the cost of the Quaife ( seems like tranny shop are are in my area so they charge a lot knowing they have the ''monopole'' no shit.. its like 1000$ to rebuilt with the 300$ kit..)

im not sure where your located cobrAA but I have found myself in nearly the same situation..

I currently have a quaife front diff and a standard rear diff which im sure is not doing as a good a job as it could.

I spoke to Award at seven hills and they will re-shim the standard diff to make it tighter for 400ish dollars from what I can remember them telling me.. you have to pull the diff out yourself though.

In saying that a quaife rear would be the way to go based off how good the fronts are

Yeah so unless, I find a great deal on a quaife rear diff, i will buy the front and put the used ATS 1.5 there . thanks

Few people use the Quaife rear - most use the Nismo or recond stocker (or can you get Kaaz at a good price?)

      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
