Hi All,

Not related lines but

Where in Canberra would it be good to take a rotor to get pre-purchase inspection done-

You know check out the car before I put down some of my blood, sweat and tears [money]

Cheers

PS: i have done a search for "rotor, rotary" in the ACT froum and got nothing!

Just a pre-purchase inspection?

Ultimate Tunes in Phillip have had a lot of rotors going through there for years, a few of their mechanics have them as well.

I used to take my old wagon there for all it's work, they always did a good job on it too.

Cheers guy's!

I just don't want to be buying a rx7 where the second turbo won't spool or engine need a rebuild.

Also to give me a heads up on what work the car requires so it can be factored into the price nego.

Once again thanks for the replys!

Reliance is my pick. even though they are rotary specialists they did the 1JZ conversion on my RA23 celica 6 years ago and i was damn impressed with their work.....would rival most bigger and better known shops in other major cities

John Waterhouse (owner of Reliance) built the motors for the Bathust SP RX7's in the 24 hour races, and would probably be best for the diagnosis/check up. However, for an engine rebuild I'd use John Gotrel (@ Hume, but many years since I've had any contact).

      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
