Hi there, I read many topics on various subject but alot of times it refers to the type of car you have, and I have yet to read a post that says "for a R34 GT-4, it would be blah blah blah" etc etc

so i was wondering if I was going to buy something off this site or based on the recommendation of the topics, do I go for those products advertised for R34 GT-T? or GTst etc etc?

I'd like to know the setup of the GT-4 is similar to which other R34? like the GT-V is like a GT-T without a turbo, is the GT-4 the same as the GT-v, only with 4wd instead of rwd?

thanks heaps

essentially a gt4 is a gt with the gtr running gear, ie awd (i dont think the gearbox is a rb26 gearbox tho - i could be wrong)

parts for the engine would be for a gt, but drivetrain parts would be gtr (i think thats the way it goes)

thanks

rear diff, front diff, sump pan to take front driveshaft, cv joints, all that sort of stuff is the same as what the gtr has

im not sure about the gearbox whether its a rb26 gearbox or a nissan modified rb25 gearbox

essentially your car is kinda the gtr's younger sibling - the handling characteristics of a gtr, but not the power

apart from that , i cant tell you much more - cause this is as much as i no!!

hopefully some other guys will tell u more soon

hi there mate..sorry for the noobieness of my question.. but what was those rea/front diff do, what's a sump pam and all.. those r not engine parts yeah? those parts r those that lie under the car? what about wheels/disc rotor sizes etc etc if you know the answeR?

thanks mate!!

    • This is the clearest explanation out of those: Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension. Basically you turn the engine with the tensioner bolt loose, then use the allen key to hold it while you torque it up. And yes after that a good guide is being able to twist it 90o in one of the long free lengths of the belt
    • good choice....I have a set of those and use them all the time including on this job. Plus, no-one wants a damaged nipple
    • Thanks all, went with nismo strengthened belt and all genuine nissan idler and tensioner Question on RB25DET Neo Timing Tensioner: I have a question about the RB25DET Neo timing tensioner. In one of the videos (minute 20 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17y37BB9xnA and minute 27 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb99s2E9xUg), the process suggests tightening the tensioner pulley installation bolt to the specified torque initially, and then loosening it slightly to allow the spring to set the correct tension. Is this the correct approach? The R33 workshop manual on page 74 states: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. The way this is written is confusing. Does this mean: Undo the nut, then reduce the tension by turning clockwise? Snug the nut so it stays in position without applying tension to the belt while removing the timing belt? The manual wording makes it sound like the nut will tighten automatically when you turn the tensioner clockwise , which is unclear to me.   Timing Belt Tension Adjustment Process: After loosening the tensioner nut, you turn the engine two full rotations by hand, which should set the correct tension. Once the tension is set, you tighten the bolt to 43 N·m (4.4 kg·m). Before tightening, you need to insert the Allen key into the hexagonal hole to hold the pulley in place while tightening the bolt. In one of the videos, it’s mentioned that you should twist the belt side to side, or turn it slightly to check if the tension is correct. The belt should turn halfway, indicating the right tension. However, I know that twisting or turning the belt is not a good idea. What are your thoughts on this? Finally, how can I ensure the belt isn’t overtightened? I’ve seen many cases where people have overtightened the timing belt.   Manual Excerpts: Page 74: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. Remove the timing belt from each pulley. Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension.
