You are lucky that there are people as computer talented as me in this world.

This will fix your problems...

You need to cut a hole under the battery tray to fit the pipes. You may also need to remove your windsheild wiper bottle on the driver side as it may get in the way.

To fit the cooler, you will need to probably hang it off the bolt that has the hood latch on it. Under the car get some metal strips and bolt it to the holes infront of the radiator. You will need to cut the front support bar. Use a grinder for this.

The rest...as they say, is history.

The hardest part of the install on one of those china kits like you have on a 32 is the pipe that goes over the fan and through the wall under the battery.

Here are a few picks that might clear things up, remeber to use a piece of metal on the flange going from the pipe to connect it to the block and not try trimming the fan cos its not needed. (Found that one out the hard way)

I beleive you have more then enough information in this thread to be able to install the cooler.

Several people have explained cutting below the battery. Also, pipe diagrams are draw/given. Mounting instuctions too.

I would say that if you are still pondering what to do, its easiest to take it to a workshop and get them to do it for you. Should cover much over 250-350 for an install i dont reckon.

      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)

      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
