Well with powercruise 56 done and dusted I'm now in the process of getting the car ready to take to the drag strip. The car performed fantastic all weekend and was great being able to drive a fast car again. We do have some oiling issues to sort out but we know what needs to be done. Currently looking at fixing the transbrake and hooking up nitrous to get the car on converter for future powercruise events. I weighed the car at the track and came in at 1330kg so also looking at taking some weight out and try to run a decent pass before we need to cage it. Fuel system will need a rehash and the old tank will be deleted etc. Yes the paint survived the side pipe action although a couple of arms hanging out the window may not have, will run the screamer up below the dump at some stage.

Well after long consideration and time wasting I've come up with the fuel system for car. We have decided to go with a mechanical fuel pump setup that's driven by the intake cam shaft. This setup should see us never run out of fuel and will cut the electrical load on the car dramatically. At this point in time the fuel tank will be taken out of the car and a new 30L fuel cell and lift pump setup will be installed, stay tuned!

Full interior no cage atm (1330kg). I'm in the process of stripping the interior and so far with the passengers front seat, all seat belts, rear seats and some plastic trims I've taken an extra 34kg's. Will leave the dash pad and centre console in adding 2 Kirkey seats + harness bar. Will try and do a full pass without a cage to see what it does. Side pipe will have a matching 2.5" screamer poking out below it at some point!!!

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • 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
