    I'm a yank, so I had to do the conversion. It looks like you've got about a 2" and a 1 1/4" (although the 34 translates to 1.34 inches, which is odd). Long story short I'd imagine that all of your 55 side plumbing would be 55, and all of the 34 would be 34. Unless you plan on a durso, then you would upsize the pipe within the drain by 1/4" (roughly 6mm).
