Hi, 

I have 2 boost controllers here at the moment, a EVC 5 and Blitz ID. I am thinking of going with the EVC from reviews however its a close call. 

I am keen to see how the boost by speed has worked for others. One of the issues I have with my Turbotech ball and spring is that due to the lower load in gears 1 +2 I only get 11-12psi instead of the 16psi I get in 3rd and 4th.  I am hoping to be able to tune this problem out with the EVC. Is this possible ? 

One final questions is can I get the silly fast spool up I get with a ball and spring on the EVC? 

Thanks :)

You _may_ be able to tune all of that effect out, or you may not.  It depends on whether the turbo can actually make that much boost in the lower gears.  If it can, then your boost controller will be able to use the boost-speed relationship to bleed more off at lower speeds.

And yes, the very definition of "gated boost control" is better met by EBCs than by a manual bleeder.

      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.
