Glad to hear.

Killabeez, check your pm. Yes S13 rear is available.

Musky, the choice for upgrading the rear or not is totally up to you. I had front slotted on my old R33 Gtst and std rear as well. No problems.

Could I please get a quote for Front slotted + Rear slotted rotors and Green EBC pads all round for a R34 GTT? Ship to Adelaide. Thanks.

gday mate

um ive got an r34 gtt

wondering how much all up to get Grooved Dimpled on the front and standard slotted on the back both with pads will be sent to adelaide, 5108

thanks mate

oh thats a decent price um when will the next groupe buy be after that one mate?

um brakes not really in this months budget

no problems

next group buy some time in early July.

if you go to My Controls, upper RH corner, then on the left sidebar go to Board Settings, make sure the "Disable Personal Messenger" section is set to No.

Setting it to Yes will disable your personal messenger.

if still doesn't work, email me: rsoputro at hotmail dot com

(replace the obvious words above with the proper symbols, you know the drill - spam prevention)

i'll send you a quote soon.

Hey bud, after current pricing on front slotted; and for both plain and slotted for rear rotors. To suit R33 GTS-t. Delivery to 4108.

Cheers

Hi, is there anyone online who can tell me in the next 5 minutes how the hell to get the rear rotors off an R34GTT? Otherwise I am taking to it with a slegehammer. I assume the handbrake assembly is inside the top hat and I somehow have to undo that? Please help ASAP. I have the car in 1,000,000 pieces right now and want to get it back together.

release handbrake. handbrake drums might be pressing the inner drum of the rotors, making it too tight to remove.

it can get sticky, from all those age old rust and dirt and grime get stuck in between. use rubber mallet. sledgehammer is a bit extreme... :-)

Yeah I released the handbrake. So there are definitely no other nuts/bolts to remove once the brake caliper is off? Just bash the bit of the disk you can see? Trouble is with the shield around it there is not much room to swing or hit.

Damn - might jack it up as high as it will go and get some leverage on the mallet. Thanks! It doesn't seem to have much movement at all - I take it it will gradually loosen up and come off?

Well I have just finished putting it all back together.

In the end I gave up on the getting the rear rotors off - making the necessary noise at 11pm seems like a bad idea in my neighbourhood.

So, today I did:

- Fitted front RDA slotted/passivated rotors

- Fitted front QFM HPX pads

- Fitted front and rear ADR compliant braided brake lines

- Flushed entire brake system with Motul Dot5 and refilled/bled

- Painted all calipers gold

Phew - 9.5 hours all up.

The result is below

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
