Hey all, i've had a full monty in my daily 34 GTR for the past 6 months and i am pleased enough with how it drives, and certainly the bite it has. It is really easy to drive normally in a straight line, but am still struggling with parking. It hates being ridden to get into parking spots, rattling, squealing, bunny hopping, etc. It is most noticable when reversing. Reverse is litterally impossible at times.

Is anyone else finding theirs this difficult to use in reverse??

not sure a ceramic clutch was designed to be ridden and or slipped when reversing or any driving for that matter.. mate its a performance clutch designed for motorsport applications, should have put a heavy duty organic in your daily. In saying that ive fitted dozens and never had a noisy one.

It has carbon buttons, not ceramic. For a car with 330awkw i would have been criticised for using organic - can't win there...

I do have a 34 GTR with the factory dual mass flywheel removed, so some of the noise would be from that. It just seems that it gets to a point where it does not want to move any further...

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
