Not bad at all, just need to brake later :)

 

Thanks man! I've had a fair few detailed tips from a few mates who are alot faster than me. So that'll give me something to work towards next time :)

Also, I had a little fiddle this afternoon and managed to get the harness bar mounted in nicely. Need to machine up a couple of new spacers to make it fit perfectly. Although it's not too bad now.

I want to run this:

1. So I can use my harnesses safely, the bar is setup to be level with the top of my shoulders. I am waiting for my other harness to arrive.
2. So I have somewhere better to mount the GoPro, so it doesn't look like I'm filming from a potato... ?

Anyway, here is a couple of photos.

Sexy!

Are you running the same front caliper as a GTi-R?

I'm actually using A32 Maxima front calipers and rotors man. 

Twin piston calipers 280mm rotors.

Rears are a mash-up

Essentially A32 Maxima setup

Although on an N14 its not a plug and play unlike an N15. 

GTiR rear calipers with A32 Maxima caliper brackets and Ford Focus ST170 rear rotors (280mm) machined down to 278mm same as the Maxima. 

 

GTiR rear calipers are the same physical caliper as the A32 rear, just the caliper bracket spacers the caliper out.

Interesting! That's pretty cool man! 

If you get a bit more competitive I reckon have a chat to Intima Brakes Australia, they love sponsoring grass root motorsports!

I want to keep this car street registered or at least right on the border lol, hence no cage, so no full on serious racing for me.

I will have a shitload of fun doing some 'club' type track days in it though, especially with the wife on board with it all ;)

Alright guys, another parts accumulation post.

I bought myself a 4 point underbody brace from Whiteline, I'll fit it up and re-wheel align before the next track day :)

P.S

I've got a bigger post coming, it's more parts accumulation, although I think you'll like it.

Okay, another update. I have had this in my hands for some time now, although I haven't posted any images just yet, so here they are:

This is a SR16VE N1 intake manifold off the JN15 VZR N1.

These intake manifolds have a larger throttle body and better designed runners than the SR20VE, their only downfall is they are designed for a 1.6L, so the diameter of the runners is a little small.

 

I sent the manifold over the AMMFAB in the US as his work is second to none, especially his welding on cast aluminium.

The runners were ported out excessively, same as the plenum. This is the intake manifold I plan on running on my built 20VE once finished.

 

The N1 manifold have been proven in the past once ported to within an inch of their life. So I am hoping this one will be the same.

 

The plan is to have the manifold and TB ceramic coated in silver to keep it looking nice and bright.

 

Enough jabbering and time for some photos:

Oh wow, you're not kidding about it being ported to within an inch of it's life

Definitely don't kid, lol. I'm really keen to see how it performs though!

That's some nice work.

Thanks Ben, hopefully the work pays off mate.

Wow, amazing! 

Can't imagine that being more cost effective than a tank of nitrous but hell cool!

?? she's always going to be strictly N/A, no swaying me there matey. 

Definitely won't be as cost effective though, you're right.

So much this. Gassed my pulsar way back on my Ps. Dollar/hp cant be beaten.

I really love an unassisted N/A screamer ?

Unfortunately $/hp sucks quiet alot in that respect. That's why I put the N14 on a diet ?

Gas is just like the icing on the cake. A single fogger wet system is easy and cheap to setup. 

You can still have a crisp AF na screamer.... with an ace up your sleeve ?

Having an n14 before i regularly check this thread lol

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • 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.
