We did the other rear guard yesterday. It went even better than the first. I now have 265/35/18 tyres fitting all round! Hopefully the AO50's that I'll be running later in the year aren't wider than the RE55's...

Awesome stuff. Love the R32's. Great to see you enjoying it on the track and loving it.

Any weight reduction plans?

Not really except the sound deadening has already been removed.

How much u pick up the A050 tyres for?

Haven't bought any yet. I'm expecting around the $550/tyre mark

I like your style of guard mods, overfenders = FAIL.

I don't mind the overfenders but this worked out and was cheaper too.

I remember reading somewhere the 050 were a bit smaller than RE55's mate in 265...

Hope recollection is correct.

Love the car, love the build.

Following it all on FB for a while now, must find time off work for SL 2011 :D

Top stuff mate. Should get you back into the top 10 on the EC track times!!!!!

What is the goal at EC?

Yeah should get me in top 10 again haha.

I would like to go as fast as a 1min 42 but I don't think it will be this year. Maybe 1:44. Realistically it's a whole lot more car than I'm used to and it will take a while for my driving to catch up.

I then added R34 GTT brakes, race seat and pretty much flogged the guts out of it. For a couple of years.

So to make the most out of my RB20 we boosted it to 1.56 bar ~23psi

*face palm for buying this motor*

With 330rwk, bigger brakes, lighter car and the 265 A050's, you will go a lot quicker than 44's! Sure, it may take a track day or two but definitely some good times to be had. Should be fun with 330rwk!!!!!

Will be more like 280-300 as motor is internally standard. E85 could be a possibility in the future for over 300. Not sure yet. Whatever is safe really. Don't want a grenade engine.

That thing will go strong for a lot longer. Compression was good when we pulled it out and had a great tune with very low knock levels.

You election not to go for the 295 Advan Russ?

All that work is a mild waste for a tiny little 265..... :P

295's wouldn't work on the front unless I go for GTR uprights. I'm already running a 10mm spacer for inner clearance. 30mm doesn't seem like much but when you consider that we've already stretched it ~50mm, 30mm is lots more!

When you make 295's fit on yours I'll copy you :P

Oh snap. :nyaanyaa:

Top work on the car Russ, look forward to seeing you out on track later this year!

June 4 Deca is what we're aiming for now. Come up for it.

    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 馃槈. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 馃槏.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 馃檹 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 馃槈. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 馃槏 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
