Hey ya'll.

Ok heres how it is. I got a R33 GTST 93 model with a hybrid FMIC, 3.5" turbo back with screamer pipe and HKS Super Dragger muffler, turbo smart duel stage boost controller, HKS pod filter, NGK Irridium plugs, umm i think thats about it.

Anyway me and my mate have been playing around with my duel stage and we set the low stage on about 8-9psi and the 2nd stage at 15psi but second stage when hit makes a higher whistle sound but doesnt reach over 10psi and spikes so it goes to different levels. Just wondering if there is a stock boost cut or what could be the problem there?

Also is there a rev limiter at 7? because that just seems a bit low when it still seems to be powering along and my silvia i used to have cut out at 8 grand??

My car some times when you give it a flogging (especially at 2nd stage) sometimes seems to start to choke, Its as if it cuts out fuel or something i dont know? I was thinking i might have bad fuel (we dont have optimax here any more) so i chucked some Nulon pro strength octain boost through and it kind of solved it but the thing is it doesnt do it all of the time. I duno its confusing to me :rofl:

Lastly i want to be quicker, What would be the best options for me.

I was thinking of saveing up for a e-manage, and larger turbo (but dont want any more lag then i have already on stock).

What other alternatives do i have without braking the bank. I was thinking of getting another 2k out on my loan or just doing stuff over time.

Oh wait one more thing :wassup: I want some new lowered struts and springs with good handeling but not to rough. The silvia i used to own had koni adjustables i put in with lowered king springs, handeled really well but was just way to rough. I want something with a softer ride, good handeling, and a nice lowered height, Was thinking adjustables as well and once again not to much. Hopefully less then $1500.

Be great if people could help me out with my delemers haha

Cheers :D

What condition is the rubber boot in between the air filter nand the turbo? this could be sucking closed and causing some of the problems you mentioned. You are also likley to hit the factory boost limit unless you make changes to your ECU.

PS - yes there is a factory rev limiter

      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
