Im going through Best Enterprises they seemed good and cheap Ive heard other places have changed there prices to $1500 when I rang however I yet to be told when my car will be finished after contacting them twice and the car sitting there since Monday Im going to drop down there on Sat and see what they have to say. I'd say get it done it's only $1200 and then you can drive it on the road if you want. I don't know how you'd go trying to get it done later down the track.

btw Ive got the cash for the guards waiting so let me know

I know my car isn't a R32, but i bought my cefiro mid september, it was registered 15th February, don't be surprised if regency knocks you back first go. I had suspension issues, i had stock cefiro struts and still it was too low. oh well, its registered now.

Congrats on your new ride!

I too am a new 4DR 32 owner (white, manual), but havent driven mine yet! Arrived in Fremantle (south of Perth) today, so I should get it very soon!

As far as time frame is concerned, i payed for mine on January 27th.

congrats mate, nice one, 4dr 32's are sick.

under 15 year rule, mine was $1250 to comply.

i paid for my car in mid october, and it arrived mid january, so for me it was a 3 month turnaround.

It's cost me around $10.500 complied and regod. roadworthy was fairly pricy, had to change all discs and pads.

---

oh yeah, remember to service it as soon as you get back from compliance. at the very least change the engine oil and filter. who knows when it was last changed, and its probably been sitting in a dealership/warehouse/docks for 6 months or so

next step is a manual conversion if you want to get into a bit of drift. get an rb25det gearbox though.

4 doors rock. I got mine in December but through a car yard in brisbane, I've upgraded the fuel pump to 450hp and put a R33 air flow meter on, which could have waited but wanted to get out of the way early. Just about to put a front mount on then we can talk a bigger turbo. And in the wet, what can i say.............

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      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.
