Hey

Thinking about up grading the front brakes on our M35(when it arrives) to R34 GTT.

I looked in the brake thread but it's all over the place.

So can anyone confirm if the GTT discs and calipers will bolt straight on? I understand the brake line might need some work but that's easy to take care of.

Cheers guys.

Cool. So the r34 gtt caliper uses a larger mounting bolt than r33. I'm assuming the M35 also uses the larger mounting bolt or am I wrong?

If this is correct I shoulnt need the bolt sleeves.

34 GTR front Brembos are definitely 324mm, I will have matching sized disks as the Z33 rear Brembos are 324mm also. (Same as the later BNR34 rears.)

I got the Brembo disks machined yesterday, he had issues cutting them they were so hardened. Grade 8 he said. They required a carbide cutter to face, not bad. :cheers:

296 = R33 GTST and R32 gtr except 2mm thicker.

310 = R34 GTT

324? = R33/34 GTR

this is correct

non brembo r32 gtr is 296x32mm, r33 gts-25t is 296x30

r34 gtt is 310mmx30 and r34 gtr is 324mm (i forget what thickness)

everything r32 and r33 has 12mm bolts up front, r34 gtt and gtr brakes have 14mm bolts up front

on a side note, the 2 pot rears are the same from r32 to r34 :)

i thought 350z calipers etc was the M35 upgrade?

its the better option because you get 324mm rotors if you get the brembos

but brembos always carry a premium price

i thought the rotor hat height was the main difference between R33/34 and 350Z? being that the R34GTR brembos have a height of 53.8mm and 350z brembos a height of 49mm. clearly if you match the caliper to the rotor you should be right but depends on the hubs being the same. so if you fitt R34 brakes to your M35 they will sit in further than standard (better caliper clearance?)

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
