Let's see, my dealings with Steve - he advertised a newly rebuilt RB25DET gearbox with an OS Giken Cross Set on the forums here.......I bought it off him, put in in my car to find out it wouldn't go into 4th at all - it was stripped by Western Suburbs gearboxes in Brisbane to find out it was a completely standard box with a blown 4th gear synchro & 3 smashed keys (had never been rebuilt in their opinion). Steve promised to repay the outlays for the repairs, never saw all the $$, doesn;t answer calls, emails etc.

I reported it to the administrators on this forum but for some reason they have not added him on the bad trader list!?

yea slapper i had a similar dealing with him. payed him for a safc II only to be fudged around for a good 3 months on stories as to why i have not recieved it and that it had been sent but has vanished and blah blah blah. after sending a message saying i was going to go to the cops if i didnt get my money back i finally did. I think skylinegeoff is mates with him who is a fairly respected vic person.

Lets talk about the gearbox......

yes indeed. it should be interesting having a rear wheel drive with a 1000hp reving to 12grand. the synchros love it :D

im asuming you are geting it fully tubbed with a nice 4 link setup?

and then thers the fuel budget... :P

but should be fun. we have a new lagmaster charlie ;)

no ofence intended to anyone, just my 2 cents, we all have our own definision of a quick set-up i mean err spastic street car.

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
