My 2c By the same logic applied above, people who have shelled out $000's on front pipes or equal length pipes will "convince" themselves there is a positive difference in order to justify the spend

Mines achieved something, they achieved the placebo effect, just watch their r34 "response monster" video it's a laggy dog with really really short diff gears in it

Just to shove a spanner in the works, I measured a set of HKS equal length pipes and found... They weren't equal anyway, there was 5 inches extra on the front turbo pipe.

Anyone have any other brands laying about to check?

I just assumed it was HKS due to the catback being HKS. There are no markings.

Ah yep. Looks like a hks sort of design. But just like midori or the "new" apexi designs the are not equal length.

Those reimax are pretty elaborate. I'll get a pick of the racepace ones. They look the best.

That looks like a Trust front pipe.

Here are two vids that demonstration of the difference in sound that the Mines front pipe makes.

That is the only difference between the two vids

...

apart from being inside, and from a different distance and angle...

Curves apear alot tighter than the jap brands, which as scotty has been saying, will restrict flow.

It may be tighter, but most jap pipes are peanut sizes. I don't think I've ever see a twin 3 inch into a single 4 inch off the shelf from ping pong land.

If you want to talk about a 3 inch "tight" bend restricting the exhsust, have a good look at the 2 inch turbo inlet pipes that bolt to the comp housing. At the smallest point they're about 1.7 inches (It can be fixed by welding it up and grinding the inside out). What about the tight bend in the dump pipes? Bigger fish to fry than a huge set of front pipes.

^^^ Hahaha. So good!

Anywho. If we all wanted power and cared so much about restriction the we would bolt on a single have a 5" dump straight out the bonnet.

And I really find the jap pipes to not care about ground clearance. They just hang there like dingle berries.

      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
