Hey guys,

I've been interested in the Gtr since I heard about it and what it can do.

Im an electrician and am doing my diploma, ive just joined a class called reporting and specs.

I have till November to learn about a topic of interest and present a 3000 word written report and a 12 minute speech.

I also must have to have a target audience

Your idea can be WHAT EVER you want.

I've chosen to present a report to the Europe touring car championship, my report will include trying to organize or ask to let other cars into there tour or try to create a world tour. It's all a bit rough ATM as I've barely thought about it.

I will be basing my idea to the audience on the Gtr (as I've heard it is "faster the the 911 turbo around the Nurbergg ring")

I will also base it on alot more fun and a bigger car scene around the world (seeing as australias only real coverage is bathurst with aus cars)

Amongst other points I have in mind.

My point for this thread is that I'm sure alot of you guys know alot about the Gtr.

My first approach will be getting the manuals of the car

I'll then be looking for sources such as from the makers of how it puts that much power to the wheels

Some people may think this is lame but I think it'll interest me a little while will make me want to do it more

Hoping some people can help me with a manual download or some good websites or books.

Or info on the Europe car scene.

Any help would be great to get this ball rolling.

Jarrad.

Don't quote Wikipedia as the source. Most claims on Wikipedia are also referenced in the Bibliography at the bottom of each page so if you use something, go straight to the source and have a look for yourself.

Wikipedia is a gold mine for academic research, as long as it's not used as the actual source.

Why don't you do a report on the R35 and the WTAC ?

A couple of threads you can get a lot of info from, including pics, graphs, video's etc. Indepth build threads right here.

Whatever doesn't make sense you can ask the people directly who are involved.

You can even post results.

Your references can be for the std cars mechanics and how altering power, aero etc changes x.y and z.

nah i don't read books to much i only have this one cause a mate gave it to me, i think the most info you will find will be in mags like "wheels" etc, anything that reports on stock cars as they are released, otherwise try the Nissan web site, they might still have a write up on its release or of the updates its had over the last few years.

Spoke to my teacher and he made a good point. It's going to be hard to find info so I guess I'll do something else :S

I thought there'd be stacks of info about it, like a whole walk through of the car and where it competes and everything.

Ohwell solar panels it is lol.

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By RB25inside · Posted

      Are these the Dmax ones you are in reference too? https://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35#description Not a bad idea to get the uni flange ones. I have sent just jap an email too. Will see what they say lmao. Only thing is the Dmax ones are on a big back order. Low key anything will be better then my OEM ones I got as they are sounding like popcorn when I go under load lmao 😂☠️🪦.

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      GReddy Injector Help!

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
