hey guys iv had my cefiro for over a yr now since then iv put rb25det in n other things n time to do the brakes.. i plan to upgrade to r33 calipers with brand new discs n pads n for the rear leave it n just replace the rotor n pads to be 5 stud as i think you can buy blank rotors.. iv been told s14 hubs work but anyone actualy done this?

anyone with any experiance with upgrading there cefiro brakes please contact me i wanna get this ball rolling !!

thanks

yeh i was gonna redrill my new rims to suit 4 stud, just tryin to find the best cost effective way to upgrade them.. iv gotten prices of bout 1150 for the whole 5stud kit that sound like good price? also just wanted to 110% make sure shit fits before i fork out the dough

if you gonna upgrade ur brakes. don't be cheap and dodgy, get the 5 stud conversion done at same time, redrilling disks etc is more trouble then its worth plus you will find that alot of legit engineers will refuse to do it due to saftey reasons. I went the through the same thing when i did my brake upgrade.

as a rough guide this is what i paid for mine...i probably could of got cheaper but was in a rush..

Rear R32 Gtst 5 stud Hubs $200.00 (didn't need fronts as front was already 5 stud when i bought the car, don't ask)

R32 Discs and Pads $490.00 (brand new items for front and rear)

R32 Gtst Brake Callipers $500.00 (front and rear)

Modifying banjo bolt on brake line fitting $Free (took it down to ABS, they cut it shorter slightly and fitted sweet)

thats awesome thanks, iv found a set (front n rear) s14 hubs n i planned to use 32 or 33 front brakes (brand new hopefully) depending on my funds.. and the rear i havnt decided to buy new stock items but slotted or get 32 or 33 rear setup aswell... iv got enough im pretty sure but might give it a month so im way ontop of it so i can get the best

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
