At last!...I have my R34!! :lol:

I also have a 'shudder' when I am at a set of lights...This happens on occasions but seems to be more frequent over the past few days. The Rev's dip a bit when it happens and seems very random, usually happens in traffic....If I add a bit of juice, it seems to go away...

I have seen another topic relating to a R33 which suggested tightening the engine mounts as a resolutions??

That could be almost anything. Please tell us what mods your car has and what you have/haven't serviced since you got it. Often a problem such as this can be solved by doing some simple maintinence that has in all likelyhood not been done for quite some time if you just got your car.

ABO bob, re the hesitation from fried plugs/coilpacks between 4500 and 5000 rpm on r33's, I found it was worst when the weather got cold and not so niticeable when the weather got hot, so it might not be that at all. Could also be air leaking from a split vacum hose, but unlikely due to the age of the r34's.

Currently it is stock, Just got complinced.

I am planning to take it in for a service (only done 2K) It seems to have gone(??) but would suspect it will return. At high rev's it seems fine, just has a very slight lag at 4-5K in 3rd

if you haven't ever changed the plugs I'd suggest taking out the factory unobtainium plugs and swapping them for NGK BCPR6ES's with a stock gap of .8mm. The guys at repco or wherever will try to sell you the super expensive ones. Tell them to get stuffed. if this doesn't solve your problem then you'll only be down about $20. and you can always put the old plugs back in if you really want.

was talking to dan about this the other night. He reckons it's your coilpacks. If he's right then swapping the plugs will do nothing.

    • 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.
    • 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.
