Hey guys,

Can you have a look a these photos for me?

Looks like it might not be a hig flow cat but i would have no idea.

The rest is 3 inch as in front/dump and cat back.

So if this isn't, i would like to get rid of the bottle neck.

Will i notice much difference?

Should be able to get one off ebay for $160 i hope.

Yibeda yibeda !

Hi Birnie

Doesn't look like it, but very hgard to tell from the outside!! take it off and whild looking through it, hold it up to the light, if you can see the light throgh the mesh, then it may be a high flow. I put a magnaflow in mine and they usually retail for ~ $400, I got it through a mate in the trade for $150.

I'd be careful of the $160 'high flow' cats - if the are the generic type, forget it! save the money and get one that has actual flow figures provided for it.

On the issue of liberating a few ponies, when I imported my car it had a full 3.5 inch system, no cat or mufflers, this is the only way to improve exhaust flow - but not legal :cheers:

noticed a drop in performance when I fitted the legal system - also slower to come onto boost.

i got one (including front/dump) for my 34 from BATMBL. Have fitted or driven the car yet :P but how'd you find the car after fitting the new cat?

cheers.

i fitted his 3" front/dump also,

already had a 3" catback

it does the job, i dont really see the differences in all these cats, they all 3"

some are larger voloume. thats all

why pay $500 for 1kw difference?

A friend has a ballistic s/charged rodeo ute and has upgraded to some magic cats ( twin exhaust).

They are not fitted yet but the workshop is going to do a before and after with the old high flows first and then whack on the magic cats to see if they are all they are cracked up to be.

I will post results when its done.

      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
