The oil only drips through it, doesn't get pumped in there like some people think, you can always tell the bottom oil drain as its the only major difference between all the other fittings, so the top one is oil in (opposite to oil drain) then yeah water return is supposed to sit slightly higher than water in.

What? Are you serious?

It is pumped through it. How else would the oil get there? Ball bearing turbos need less flow than bush bearings, but certainly way more than being dripped on....

There's a guideline on how much flow, and I can't remember it, it its not measures in drips!

The smaller oil inlet then outlet is only to stop the oil building up pressure in the core. There should be a flow of oil but having the return bigger then the inlet should ensure that the flow is never restricted causing pressure.

Maybe I wasn't clear with what I meant to say - It doesn't flow through it at 50psi "as some ill experienced people have thought. Of corse it has a flow rate or how else would it move through the turbo?

But thanks for the serious reply.

Pressure is indirectly proportional to flow

To the OP, I'm guessing you were talking about the cylinder shaped object between the oil inlet and the line? It looks like it might contain a mesh filter to me, but the easiest thing to do would be to pull it off the other fitting and have a look. If it has a mesh filter inside it should come apart for cleaning. If its a one way/check valve (and I'm not real sure why you would put one there) then you can test that by blowing through both ends.

If its a restrictor, and it seems WAY over the top for that, you should be able to blow through it but feel quite alot of restriction. In my head theres no way its a restrictor, there are much more discreet/compact ways to do this

      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
