Hey Nick. They are different. I don't have OEM specs, so, according to Wikipedia (don't know if it's gospel) the R34 sedan length is 4,705mm & the C34 Stagea length is 4,800mm. Then there is another problem as I encounted recently. Exhaust lenghts are different even in the same model range. I bought a cat back exhaust to suit an Autech thinking it'll be a breeze, but, it was slightly longer (due to the fatter rear bar of the Autech), & the exhaust cut out in the Autech bar is bigger than a standard. So I had to make spacers for the rear hanger bracket, use longer bolts & leave the hanger near th LH rear wheel off to achieve around 7mm clearance between the rear bar & the tip. *NOTE* I only have the standard rear bar not the Dayz. This bar may again be different for fitment........

Thanks for your reply.. I assumed they would be longer just wasn't 100% sure.

Guess ill have to start looking for a new exhaust system as finding a second hand one seems fairly rare to find

      No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.

      R34 GT > GTT compatibilities

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...

      Rear hub bolt torque r34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ones in brackets are the first stages of tightening. I usually aim for the middle of the range. They give a range because it's actually not that critical to hit exactly the right bolt tension. Enough is enough, and too much is too much, and the range given is inside that range. Half of the bolts in the suspension are problematic for putting a torque wrench on anyway, so just get done up to mechanic tight  and spanner checked a week later.
