I have an S13 240sx usdm and i think im going to go SR20det but im thinkin of making an RB26dett s14 or s15 240sx after this. i know its kinda expensive but it can be done using the RB25det tranny but i love AWD. do any of you know the major things i would have to custom fab in order to make the 240 awd? its obvious ill need spindels for the front wheels so could i mount some gtr spindels or will they not fit? any info would be awsome. thanks fellas.

RB25 tranny awd??

suggest more research..

GTR uses double wishbone style front end whilst S14/15 uses macpherson struts for starters.

You would need the RB26GTR tranny, a lot of time , patience and money to achieve what? I would suggest it is not impossible, just not economically viable. It would probably be cheaper to pay Motorex for a GTR..

BTw, is it school holidays atm in America??

Cheers

i know rb25 tranny is rwd and thats why people do rb26 swap with rb25 tranny. that was my major point. im achieving somthing that you would only get from a DSM in america. yeah you could do it with a subaru but in the end you still have a subaru. this car will not be aimed at anything with "economy" in the title so i wont care about money and time. ive seem one or two for sale that claimed to be awd but couldnt ever get info from them about it.

and unfortunately, holidays just ended .... sniff sniff

      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
