I thought you already had a Z32 AFM?

Not yet.

CeJay perhaps this is an opportunity to trade your Z32 for his AFM + cash?

I would be up for that... I know that the one I have works perfectly. :)

are you able to post a pic of your catch can setup plz? Really need to get mine sorted out

Attached is an interesting read on the importance of crankcase breathers / catch cans... It should help with your new set up. :/

Ok so its taken a lot longer than I thought it would (due to money shortages and the daily driver failing me) but my cam gears turned up yesterday and the new Z32 AFM should be here today or tomorrow (if Paul comes through for me)...

This all means that Wednesday next week will be the moment of truth (dyno tune - finally). Yay! :P

Hello again!

Not really an update but... I bought a daily driver so if anyone sees me cruising with the top off my new Z31 300zx, give a wave! :)

You told me you had a zed, thats not a real zed and thats why it broke down.... Wait a minute...lol

OMG OMG OMG :nyaanyaa: lol tis alive????.......

Well, sort of... It starts and drives but its very cranky, definitely needs a new tune.

Not a real Z?? - The Z31 300zx is a true retro cool cruiser mate, there is nothing quite like cruising on a sunny day with the targa roof off... And it didnt break down - it failed its rego inspection :laugh:

i luvz Z31's...

just bought some 50th anniversary seats out of one! (xtreemly comfey)

What went wrong with it? selling?

Everything is for sale for the right price... :P

I was implying I cant talk, my car is basically an R33 Datsun lol. They are certainly good cruisers and a much better daily than a 240/260z, cops to drive but oh so much fun. :)

Ok, Its time to officially "let the cat out of the bag"...

After almost 14 months of blood, sweat, swearing and large sums of cash... Last Saturday I picked up the "Silver Bullet" from a certain performance workshop in Queanbeyan. :)

The former power figure (which a few of you may remember) has been eclipsed by more than 30rwkw (41hp) which is even more impressive when you consider that it is now running less boost! :D

I couldnt be happier with the final tune... And all of the extra work, bolt on parts, electrical bits, time and effort have finally added up to make a pretty complete package, it is an animal to drive (I'm still smiling).

I have to say a HUGE THANKS to:

James (DriftGTS)

Luke (Frink)

Mark (Bluprint)

Paul (DIRTgarage)

For all your help - Cheers! ;)

P.S. The reason I am being so criptic is because in light of a recent increase in stolen Skylines I would prefer to not disclose too much more info about my car... PM me if you would like to know more :)

Cheers,

Mick

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • 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.
