$100 per rim thats very cheap, a lot of work to get them nice . Lucky the GTR rims are plain and easy to get to with a buffer otherwise you would be paying a lot more , i have seen up to $400 per rim for a good job. If you think its expensive why not do it yourself, 8 hours later you may have one rim finished !!

Twin plate clutchs are all ratlly, some more than others.

Who told you that? V-spec II has the same ceramic turbos as all R34 Gtrs, only N1's and NUR specs have steel wheel turbos .

Same calipers, different mounting brackets

What if he bought the car for $7500 then spend another $5k to repair some mechanical or body damage, he will be out of pocket if it was a right-off and they paid him $7500. The reason insurers will only insure for the purchase price is so people don't buy a bomb worth $5 k, insure it for $20 k then they have the car stolen , burnt whatever ... So they will ask , how much you paid for it then they have price range on their books for that car/model , if its under the range they want to look at the car so they can see its in good nick . If its over the range they may say to you we can only insure it for the purchase price . If you tell them its in mint condition and very low k's for that model then they may cover you but will usualy want to inspect it . All the above is from the big mainstream companies and for Australian delivered cars, most of these companies will not insure used imports ..

More heat should do the trick, other than that you may have to destroy it and buy a new one. I usualy get them off with the oxy torch though, just apply heat on the gear only .

Well set up GTSS's will be on full song bellow 4000 rpm on a well built or stock engine. If you have lower compession ratio you will find they will boost later though . I would imagine you will have stock comp 8.5-1, then you should have full boost under load well before 4000 rpm. If you think it could be the boost controller why not disconect it and use the actuators , set them up to say 1 bar then take it for a spin and see where you get full boost. If you are going to run 1.2 bar boost you should have the actuators at least 1 bar or a bit above . GTSS turbos spool up almost like the stock R34 turbos ..

Whatever you do , don't lie to them, not just on purchase price either, don't lie full stop. If you read the fine print on any insurance policy it says if you are not truthful with them your policy maybe regareded as non existant . Some insurance companies will insure for more than you paid for a car but will want to inspect it, i know NRMA will . Tell your insurer you bought it from a friend and because you did him/her a favour you got it way bellow market value but you want to insure it for more . Agreed value policies are much better than market value and usualy more expensive .

They won't fit your 33 unless you mod the calipers so don't bother just get the 300 mm..

I have all 4 struts from a R34 GTR, excelent condition . $490 pick up in Sydney, will post at buyers expense. P.M. or email: [email protected]

I have a catback S/Steel exhaust and a large high flow cat for sale, both in excelent condition. $550 for both, will not separate. Pick up in Sydney prefered but will post at buyers expense. P.M. or email: [email protected] SOLD

If you busted a turbo you will find part of the shaft in the cat ( if you have one) . Do a compression test to see if you damaged the bore as well.

If you don't use the restrictors you are running the risk of blowing your seals.

Thats not sealed battery , that is a vented battery, skylines have them in Japan and they are ok because they are vented outside. Sealed gelcell batteries are totally different and far more superior though. Here is one, a copy of Odyssey

I have series I GTR headlights in Sydney, excelent condition, P.M. with an offer if interested .

There are 3 different series I R33 steering wheels, depending on which one you want i maybe able to help you.

Nissan

Correct 316x20 for the MY02 STI and the series II 34 GTR is 316x22, series I 34 GTR =300x22, front rotors are 324x30 from memory or maybe 326x30. When i said the same i meant the same size GTR rotors won't fit STI , different PCD. My05 on STI's have the same PCD as GTR but i'm not sure that they will fit the part that goes over the hub maybe different size. I dont have any part numbers, i could have a look on my car but you wouldn't want to buy rotors from Nissan i don't think. You can buy aftermarket rotors much cheaper from any spare parts shop, just tell them what car you want them for and they will look them up for you . Keep away from Chinese made rotors .. Is it R34 GTR you want them for ? If its series i you have i dont think you can use the bigger series II rotor without some mod to move the caliper further out ..

I don't dispute that but i know thats not the reason they break. They don't brake on RB26s, only RB25 and RB30s , the manifold is so long ....

RB25s and RB30s not RB26s, they break because they have a long manifold that warps not because they are overtighten. Don't forget using a swivel ( uni) is not going to be the same tention as the nut you didn't use it on .

R33+R34 GTR's have the same front brakes as My02 on STI's , STI's have slightly larger rear rotors just like series II R34 GTRs have .

I have a drivers side GTR in Sydney, they are the same .

I have a pair of clear side indicators in Sydney, yours for $40+ post.

NURs have the same colour wheels as other GTRs ..

He wants a workshop manual, not a g/box. If you find one i want one as well.
