Ahh ok really im trying to find find out if my r34 (on its way over) has the big brakes

or not. Its a one owner car and is 100% stock yet came standard with the gtt wheels and ive seen some NA's with the turbo brakes fitted so just wondering if my car has the 17's to fit the brakes from standard.

Wasn't there a thread where someone in a GTT asked if he should keep his 18's or R23 GTR's?

That was me. I ended up borrowing a set of R32 GT-R wheels ( with tyres ) and fit them on my car and they actually looked pretty tough but a little odd :wacko: Hard to explain..... I wanted them for the larger tyre profile which would be a softer ride for everyday driving ( plus 225/50/16's are cheap ) and then have a set of 18's for fun days.

Anyway, R32 GT-R wheels do clear the GTT calipers ( not by much ) but many other 16's won't. And in case you were wondering, no, I didn't get any pics with the R32 GT-R wheels fitted sorry :)

If you have a GTV it will have the turbo brakes fitted from factory and will have GTT wheels. Hope that answers your question :wacko:

Well thats what i thought but it is missing a few other gtv features. two tone steering wheel and shift knob, factory kit Small lip on th boot etc. But i will hope for the best.

two tone steering wheel and shift knob and the bootlip aren't GTV specific features...they are more Series 2 specific (2000+ onwards). If they came with GTT wheels chances are you have the turbo brakes as well.

      Use text replace function to auto-link to referred threads?

      Yeah the issue here is that we have a lot of topics, unless we matched on the exact word & phrase we'd get a million topics and the one you want will not likely be in the top 20 or so.

      Yeah great idea, I have already added R32 Wiring Diagram but we can add as many as we want. 100% ! This has been something I've wanted to do for a while. I thought we could have a way for people to 'suggest' a link be added to the library when they come across something good.  We could kick this along by allowing members (maybe a subset) to tag threads they find to allow us to more easily find/locate/use good content, ie a tag 'for-library' which can then be added to the library and maybe have the tags reviewed and updated to better match the content. This would make it easier then to find the content when not using the library. We can also create pages that have lists of content with specific tags. That would allow us to add a tag and then have it automatically added to a page. We could have a page just for the 'for-library' content that we could then moderate and put wherever.  This excites me, the lack of structure with the amount of content is a little overwhelming.

      RB25DET Engine Oil Dipstick Length

      Of course you can. That was a waste. Straight down one oil drain gallery and out the sump hole. Could at least have run the engine a little (obviously with at least minimum oil level on the stick).

      Fixing exhaust position?

      By PranK · Posted

      Oh really? Maybe I'm being silly. I'll get some more shots. I had it higher but found that it went too high after a drive, I never knew this but exhausts can move around a bit when hot (makes sense, just never knew) and when it was higher it would make nice cooking plastic smells. That said, I could put some heat tape on a'la 90's R33 exhausts     Ha, I've spent a lot of my life in castle hill waiting for cars to be done. I think I'd prefer something closer but thanks D.

      @Duncan Yes, changed filter every time. I don't have the service manual for the car yet (Car was imported and they removed everything when importing). I've been using the oil change threads in the forum as reference.   @Milkmun The second oil change was after ~4 months after the first months and I wasn't sure about reusing engine oil that was opened. The third oil change happened within 3 weeks of the second oil change and I used the previous leftover oil to just "clean up" the system. (Poured it through while the sump plug was open")
