PM sent regarding my order for some slotted rotors and redstuff pads...My current brake setup feels weak, Has anyone ever changed the ABS controller when doing a 4 stud to 5 stud conversion? My brakes just dont feel right.. i've had the rotors machines before putting them on, i've used Ferodo excels and Bendrix ultimates and still no difference..Master cyl is fine, i even went and bought the big R32 one with the backup reservoir.

Cant seem to work out what the problem is.. Maybe this will do the trick?

I wanna put a RB30DETT in eventually and wont dare until ive sorted out my braking woes.

I've never do any 4 to 5 stud conversion so I'm not sure. from the car at the bottom of your signature, looks like you're putting a Gtst rotor conversion onto your non-turbo GTS4 ? Have you tried bleeding off the brake fluid, or even flush it all out and put a fresh one in? brake fluids can attract water over a period of time, especialy DOT5.1 requires more often maintenanceto DOT4. This could make your braking system less effective.

Not sure about the ABS controller though.

On the other hand, once you transferred the payment, send me a pm and I'll update the order list above.

[Ryan D]

Yeah i did a complete flush and put new fluid in, Did i say ABS controller? I ment to say ABS valve.. lol, Too much tafe programming...Transferring the money now and then sending PM

[rs73]

got your pm....

Could i grab a pm with the group buy price for slotted rotors:

Rear: R32 GTR 297mm slotted rotors

Front: R33 GTS-t 296mm slotted rotors

i'm going to be running r32 gtr calipers on rear and r33 gtst calipers on the front... so this is what i'd need yeah?

the car is used for street and on the very rare occasion will be taken to track.. what pads would you recommend? and if i could get a group buy price on that... that would be great.

cheers.. and sorry i'd pm this but i can't yet.. :-S

Hi Rianto,

3 weeks wait is ok.

Sorry, but for some reason i'm not allowed to PM you anymore until i reach up to 10 post.

Thanks.

[rs73]

no worries. I think the forum had been bombarded by 'fake users' sending spam via its PM facility, that's probably the reason why PM are now limited to people who have posted at least 10 to eliminate those once-off fake user from the spam-bots.

[Moodles2]

The RDA gold passivated slotted rotors, do they have any other advantages than corrosion protection over the normal slotted rotors by RDA, and why is corrosion an issue (does it affect future machining?)?

[rs73]

the gold passivated material itself is only as important as a pretty girl gotta put up a makeup before leaving the house.

cosmetics

surface rust looks ugly if you don't have a lockup garage, car exposed to humidity outside, and you didn't use the car on daily basis.

extreme amount of surface rust may score the rotor surface, so you may need to machine it more often if it's too badly rusted.

However, other than cosmetics, the gold passivated rotors come in a different pattern called the grooved & dimpled.

The extra dimples acts similar to drilled rotors cooling system, especially under constant hard braking use. While drilled rotors

are prone to cracking due to materials remove and reducing the strength, the dimples (or blind drilled holes) maintain the rotor strength

to minimise chance of cracking under extreme use...

Again if you only drive your car on the street, going Gold Passivated should only be considered as cosmetic purposes.

Because on the street, even a lead foot driver in the start stop traffic would not be applying extreme enough demand on the rotors...

only track use would bring the demand up there.

[Musky]

hey bud,

Could i please get a price on a pair of front slotted rotors to suit r33 gts-t? And are the stock rear rotors adequate for a street driven car or should they get an upgrade too?

Thankyou

[killabeez]

Can you get standard rear S13 rotors? If so how much for the pair.
