G'day all,

Live in South Perth, and have, a datsun 240Z, and am on the search for an RB20DET R32 manual front cut to swap in..

Have had trouble finding a place that sells them, Rang up "japco", was told to wait 3 weeks, and call up again then... Also maytec

Anyone know of any other places i could source a low km decent front cut asap?

Thanks all.

Sean

Cuong's swap will/has cost him a shitload more than what I plan even though the end result will be awesome...

would have to do a lot more mods for the 26...$$$

On a tight budget, RB20 g/box fits straight into z driveshaft, just need to modify sump $200, mounts $100, crossmember.

then wiring around $300

Been waiting for so long for a front cut/package to get this done...

Not sure of the pricing or your budget but I know of a RB25DET manual half cut coming for less than 3K.

Guy brings in Scooby stuff and got offered the half Nissan to fill up the container and asked me if it was worth bringing in.

Let me know if your interested and I'll PM the contact details

Cheers

thanks for the advice guys.

Yeah, I've tried getting in contact with him a few times.. He is who I'd like to go through, says he can wire it, get an LSD for me etc.. just trying to get in contact with him hasn't been so easy.

I really want to go through a local company, somewhere in perth, otherwise I don't know what i'm buying interstate...

How much were you looking at under $3k? The cut must be in pretty good nick for that price, Could you pm me the details of it ? Thanks mate.

Can't wait to have an RB sitting in the bay...

Here's some pics of the zed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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.
