After plenty of messing around with different wheels, rotor sizes etc i have finally settled on my F40 setup so not going to even bother bolting on the F50 to see the back to back difference. I think you will find this is the largest Brembo 4 pot brake package, with the rotors being amazingly light for their size.

So up for grabs are:

- pair of F50 calipers with used pads thrown in (nothing special)

- pair of Brembo 370mm rotors and hats.

DO NOT come with lines or radial mounts as i am keeping them.

Calipers are in your usual chips and marks condition, hats are fine with rotors past their best. Fine for driving around but they are 29-30mm thick so wouldnt recommend you track them.

Located in Melbourne and asking $2800. + Delivery

For an extra $200 I can provide some R34 mounts that are for a 340mm rotor, but can either be used as a template to make mounts for 370mm rotor or billet piece sandwiched between the caliper and mount to get the extra 15mm rotor clearance. If you dowel them i dont see a problem with this approach but suggest you use them to machine new correctly sized mounts

For 4k i will fully refurbish the calipers and provide new slotted rotors and lines but no pads.

I have fitted this calipers in my GTT and can honestly say it is excellent! I had to make up an adapter and hat to suit a 355mm disc and it fills up my 18inch nismo LMGT rim space nicely. Braking performance, distance and force improved by up to 65%! but i have shitty nexen tyres so not using the brake to its full potential. So, whoever who's thinking of getting the calipers, i can honestly say buy it! it's worth every penny! :D

Interest but to date the only thing sold is the R34 brackets.

PMs answered and as of this afternoon free delivery to Sydney is off the cards as i am jumping on a plane tonight and wont be back until the end of the week

For what sized rotor and in what state are you in. They are not difficult. Most performance brake places will be able to make them up for you if you give them your car and the brakes with the rotors you want to run. About two days and no way they will cost you more then $600 for the brackets. Most likely around $350, possibly as low as $250 .... it all depends on how much work is in them which is a result of the rotor and wheel you are running

    • Speaking of diverting threads, my second ever NISMO purchase…. I think they look pretty classy and just wanted to share 😅   PS: 1st was the oil drain plug 😂  
    • R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.
    • Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays  
    • careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?
    • OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
