I've got an R34 GT-T I'm wondering where I can get a spare wheel ... the one I've got (some yellow space saver) comes off an R33 GTS-T and it doesn't fit on my car because the brakes get in the way? does that sound right?

just curious where I can get one from .. wrecker? forums here? do spare wheels from any other cars fit?

Brakes on GTS25T are same as GTT are they not?

Any wheel thats 5x114 will fit. Altezza, Stagea, 300ZX, RX8, RX7, V35/G35, 350Z, S2000, Accord, Silvia, Maxima, 180SX, etc.

Just go to a Nissan wrecker and ask for any 5x114.3 space savers to try on your car, should be nice enough to let you.

RX7 ones are quite cool, they are a proper mag wheel, but still as tiny as the factory spacies.

Have you actually tried the spare wheel to see if it fits? Cause R34 came witha space saver.. And no i believe the 33 & 34 turbo fronts are different..

ok the full story is:

Bought the car from a guy, it had no spare wheel and he said he'll get one before selling it. So he goes to the wrecker and gets a R33 GTS-T yellow space saver which the wrecker told him will fit an R34 GT-T (but he didn't try and fit it at that time). Recently I shredded a tyre (got home luckily) and tried to put the wheel on ..... alas it hits the brake caliper and doesn't go on.

I'm pretty sure my car has standard brakes so there must be a difference between R33 & R34 spare wheel???

Buy an R34 space saver if you are looking to place one in the spot of the spare tyre.. as i dont think a normal tyre will fit in the area provided? height wise i mean.. if it does.. have a look if anyones selling 34 stockies..

    • Hey everyone,   I’m looking for some advice on replacing the timing belt on my RB25DET Neo-powered 1998 Skyline. The engine was fully built about five years ago, including a fresh timing belt, water pump, and other essentials. However, since then, the car has only covered around 2,000–3,000 miles. It’s currently making around 650hp.   Even though the mileage is low, I know timing belts have a time-based lifespan too, and most recommendations suggest changing them every five to six years or 50,000 miles. Since I’m at that time mark, I’d rather not take any risks and plan to swap it out soon.   A few things I’d like to hear opinions on: 1. What’s the best belt for this setup? Should I go with an OEM Nissan belt, or is the HKS fine-tune a better choice given the power level? 2. Would you bother replacing the idler pulley and tensioner at the same time, or only if they show wear? 3. When swapping the belt, is it necessary to lock the cam and crank gears in place, or is lining up the timing marks enough? I’ve seen different approaches, and I want to make sure I do it right.   The water pump was changed with the rebuild and isn’t run off the timing belt, so I don’t see a need to replace it again. I just want to make sure I approach this the right way.   Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!
    • How does this compare to the internally gated g25-550 in terms of power production at same psi and spool
    • Did you find that your voltage of the battery wasn't where it's normally supposed to be? for example on my r34, it's at 14.5v when running after a few seconds, but I noticed when I had a rough start and it initially wasn't idling correctly, the voltage on my triple gauge cluster was showing lower than usual. Seems like the alternator is starting to crap itself
    • And, given that you're in NC, go buy an LS7 or something equally sweet and piss that crappy old RB off. Or call up Wesley Kagan and get his help putting a Merc V12 into it.
    • Do a compression test, and a bore scope on the cylinder that lost parts of the plug. Chances are, that cylinder isn't so happy anymore...
