post-36964-1206935023_thumb.jpg G`day all just a few photo`s of R32GTR with evo calliper`s, cheer`s chuckie,post-36964-1206934910_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1206934808_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1206934284_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1206934184_thumb.jpg

LOL, they are Alcon Mono 6 calipers. I know Alan Heaphy has sold a few kits as a Ralliart option for some late model EVOs. The Ralliart asking oprice is scary, higher then what you can buy the Alcons for

Haha :)

I'm contemplating some 6 pot Alcons and AP's at the moment, as well as a few other options which I can pickup second hand. The Evo brembo option is pretty enticing for the dollars, especially as you can pick up some front calipers for under $700... I'm contemplating the Evo brembo with a 355mm rotor under my 17's, or the Alcons on the same size rotor. I think the Alcons would be overkill, and require a bit of messing around with my master cylinder which is putting me off a bit.

I'm also considering this kit: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wilwood-SL4...sspagenameZWDVW which I've thought about for a while. It has larger pistons than the Evo's, are light, and cheap! Great value in comparison to a lot of others.

What have you got laying about Troy? I like your F40 kit, but I just don't have the dollars to outlay in one hit at the moment with all the other car expenses I've had. Bloody bottomless money pit... :P

Best I can offer is this:

The part number for a project mu rotor for an R33 front is SCRN006. It has a height of 53.8mm

For an Evo the part number is SCRM045 with a height of 44.2mm

So the Evo calliper appears to sit a little further out than the Nissan equivalent. Which may cause a problem.

Hey guys i've been offered a set of Evo 7 Brembos (whole set) for a very reasonable price, to go on my R32 GTR. What do I need to consider before trying to install them? Would they require any sort of modification or adapters to suit it? Is the stud pattern the same? Anything else I need to think about it?

Cheers!

Question: Are Evo 7-9 Brembo's identical to each other?

If they are in fact the same then my questions probably have been answered :D

EDIT: just reread maxspd's post, just the info i'm after cheers!

Anyone know of any good workshops who would be able to fit these brakes and make up the adapters etc.?

I've tried a few places and they've more or less palmed me off, just want a rough estimate of how much they'll be to fit before I buy them. Cheers!

Autosports in Kirrawee. :rolleyes:

Thanks for that mate, they've done it a few times and for a good price as well, everywhere else was more than double of what they're asking. They haven't done the rears before though, would they be a big upgrade over the standard rear calipers?

    • Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha 
    • Any number of different ways. Have the coils draw sufficient current to provide contact wetting. Use different contacts in the switch, either by material or design, better suited to the low current drawn by a relay coil. Etc.
    • Hmm, how does the R34 manage to have headlight relays then without getting excessive carbon buildup on the headlight switch contacts?
    • Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.
    • Bugger "making it look stock". I put one conventional internally fused Hella relay behind each globe. I just pulled the plugs off the back of the globes and built new loom segments with male and female plug parts to match up to the original loom and the globe, and used the original power wires to each globe coming from the switch through the original loom plug to trigger the relays. Ran a big fat (also separately fused) power wire across the front of the car to feed all the relays. It's as ugly as f**k, but it is wedged down between the headlight and battery on the RHS and the airbox and headlight on the LHS, and no-one ever looks in my engine bay, and on the odd occasion that they do I simply give no f**ks for what they think. Fully reversible - not that you'd ever want to. For f**k's sake. It's a Skyline. They made million of the bloody things. We've been crashing them into roadside furniture for 30 years now. There is a negative side effect to putting relays on the headlights. The coil current is too little to properly clean the contacts in the switches and they get blacked up and you have to open them up every couple of years and clean them manually. I have 25 years of experience on this point.
