R33 Style FMIC in R34

Very busy weekend, just installed an r33 sytle FMIC in my er34. All i can say is that after alot of cutting and grinding it fits. I didn't take any shots during the mod, since i was busy all weekend and didn't even think about taking any. However i will get some shots next weekend since the front bumper has to come off so i can remount and fit the wiper watertank (thats one thing r34s have to modify).

Some of the biggest time consuming things of the weekend. (r34 specific)

* The r34 bonnet had to be cut in order to close - the overcam pipe needs to be high and more to the front to clear the radiator fan; by cutting out some of the bonnet support structure i was able to get a 0.1cm clearence :P (atleast it closes, however there will still be rubbing from the soft bonnet padding.

* The wiper water tank needs to be moved; haven't figured that out yet so im currently driving without one. Either it needs to be repoistioned else where or, what i think might work, rotate it 90 degrees so its facing forward and construt support brackets.

* For autos, that sensor in front of the trans cooler needs to be flipped inward or your IC will hit it.

Anyone attempting to do this, allow a full weekend since it took me 9-5 sat and sun of full time work (no lunch breaks) to get this done, so allow plently of time if you need to drive the car monday. This morning the car drove well, no noticable turbo lag; fitted a greddy pod filter at the same so all i can hear now in the cabin is the turbo whine - totally cancealling out the BOV, sounds awesome though.

the blitz kit must be different, does the blitz kit run a pipe behind the IC to other side?; by r33 style i mean that the intake pipe went up and over the cam cover and radiator fan not down into the stock holes. Therefore in order to get clearance some of the supports needed to be 'removed' and a hole cut down in the subframe to bring it around into the area where the wiper tank is.

      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
