Guys you can get a ford 9 inch irs diff. And i will need 5.8 and 6.1 gears becouse i am runnig a bert gear box so i will be runnig in top gear not 2nd or 3rd it is alot cheaper in speedway to go bert gear box then buy a really good light fly wheel and clutch and then keep replaceing gear boxs as you blow them

one of the nissan vans runs an r200 with a high ratio (serena? espace?), there was a thread recently. It was about 4.9 I think.

Or maybe a custom pinion gear with the right ratio?

r200 is a very strong diff, and if you did actually have trouble with it (unlikely on dirt) there is always r220 out of 300zx that would fit.

Of course you can put a 9" in it, anything can be done with enough time and money, and sometimes it's worth it for reliability in a specific purpose.....not sure if there would be many IRS speedway cars out there?

How much power? Have you considered a hq 3 speed box? top gear is 1:1, they are cheap, lots of guys at home put them on the back of 350chevs in saloons in nz.

We ran a 6.5 9inch then went to a 7!!! it was like a worm gear!

Plus you can get the 9 inch head with an alloy nose and carrier to save a bit of weight.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      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.
