I know there has been a few people asking this but I havnt really found a straightforward answer

I have a 98 r34 gt25 and I want to upgrade it's brakes on a budget (as I am only a first year aprentice)

What model skyline brakes will be a direct bolt on or if there not what brakes will fit with an adapter front and rear

Also should note I'm running the factory nissan alloys so would have to fit inside there

Witch model exactly tho

R34 Gt-t.

Runs 310x30mm rotors with 4 piston Sumitomo Calipers on the front, and 296x18mm rear rotors with 2 piston Sumitomo calipers. The rears are identical on R32,R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t.

The fronts use 14mm mounting bolts, whereas the (similar looking) calipers for the R33GTS-t use 12mm mounting bolts, and also run a 296x30mm rotor. You can use a sleeve in the bolt hole but the pick is the GT-t caliper.

Ask any import wrecker, they will know what these are. You should be able source the front for $300-$400 with serviceable rotors. The rears will be half that, or less.

If you need rotors or pads; GSL Rallysport have some excellent, and well priced options.

      R34 Diff oil

      By Duncan · Posted

      Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears

      75W90 GL5 is fine. If you aren't sure about the type get one with LSD additive.

      Short shifter r34

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Because you're effectively rushing the shift and forcing it to go in - with greater leverage against parts that don't _want_ to go together. Short shift = forcing the gear in harder. Also Redline Heavy Shockproof actively says not to use it in anything with Synchros. Well, it says "not recommended" which is basically as far as anyone will ever say in a product statement to "Do not use" Generally the Redline makes the gearbox feel great... until it fails faster. https://www.redlineoil.com/heavy-shockproof

      R34 Diff oil

      99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.

      R34 Diff oil

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones
