hey guys

just wondering if you guys can recommend me to some good things to pretty up my engine bay?

a clean, polish what ever... just note the BOV and the Oil Catch Can Are no longer there, the bov pipe has been replaced with the Factory Black Piping... and the Valley cover is missing, the top pic is the most recent ...

any Ideas would be great ;)

HKS t51r, 3" titanium piping, metal flow air filter, anodoised blue cam covers, splitfire coilpacks, hks oil cap + radiator cap. 3" radiator with silicon hoses, blue vacuum lines, polished inlet plenum.... thats just for starters. :cheers:

nah seriously, clean the engine bay first, and blow all the water away with compressed air if you can. clean everything, everything on the strut towers and firewall aswell. polish up your cam covers with some fine sand paper and metal polish... if your keen you can do the same with the plenum. all black hoses, wipe over with armour-all, ud be suprised how much difference this makes... do it to everything thats black.

and generally just tidy thing up, any hoses that can be run out of sight makes everything look neat. coloured vacuum lines do look good, but dont get cheap ones as they will suck in when they get hot. even though they are pretty, try and run them as out of sight has you can.

also, take the battery out and clean up under as there is some missing paint there, give that a bit of a touch up...clean the battery aswell.

if you have the time, start at 1 corner and work your way around...and if anyone tells you that its a dumb idea tell em to get stuffed...theres nothing wrong with wanting a clean and tidy engine bay...it doesnt mean your a ricer.

cheers

      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
