Atomicbomberman had some impressive brembo brake calipers with him one night. Ferrari ones or some such. Dan or Martin might remember. He was putting them on his 32GTR and they looked like MORE than enough.

yeah somthing like f40s or f50s would be great! they seem dear for what they are though..hmm EVO ones are cheap, wonder how much adapting they would take.

hey guys just wondering which brake pads do you thinks better the EBC redstuff or the project mu B-spec/Type HC+. (value for money??) this is for my r33 ill be upgrading my rotors to slotted and want to change my brakes after i get my full tune, the power that ill hopefully get is around 350rwkw or + depending on how my fuel set up will go.

I haven't used either of them, but I do hear good things about RB74. QFM (Queensland Friction Materials) sell the RB74 pads cheaper than race brakes. They are the same pads, just badged as QFM instead of Race Brakes

Dan said if you buy them through Ferrari they'll cost you your left nut and first born, but through brembo themselves will cost you about a 10th of the price.

Thristian owes us an appearance tonight I reckon

+1. TWO cars to pick from now. No excuses left for not showing up :)

haven't used project mu's myself, but EBC reds are the bomb diggity

I'll be favoring communism when I need new brake pads :P

The greens just earned my vote this election:

http://www.zdnet.com.au/filter-no-vote-gua...s-339303081.htm

Seriously, this is possibly the most sensible thing to come out of a politician's mouth, EVER.

Maybe the greens might have a chance of actually winning this time. Enough people hate the filter idea. And everyone seems to hate K.Rudd (even though they voted for him) but no one wants to vote liberal to get rid of him. I still don't care enough to vote though. You want my vote?

yeah even then they are some where around the 3k mark just for fronts i think, Im gonna investigate my alcon options though, they could work out really cheap through the race team.

Definitely. But remember to use preferences when voting for greens, they preference to labour :P

Preference to pirate party, sex party, gamer party, and basically everyone else instead.

    • 350/370Z CD005/9 seem to be a good choice, but you'll need to address the diff ratio issue.
    • Brand new r34 gtt box 
    • What is the go to gearbox these days for a RWD RB? Back in the day VG TT boxes were cheap and strong. Seems they are as expensive as an RB25 box these days. What are the options without remortgaging the house? 
    • Define "Nissan big brakes". You just mean standard R34 4 pots? And...it's not even the offset you need to worry about. It's really a detail of how much clearance there is between the caliper and the back of the spoke/face, which is affected more by the design of the spoke than it is by the offset. If you think about it....take any wheel, say a 19x8 that does fit and clears the caliper. Then add or subtract an inch of wheel on the outside, without changing anything else. You have changed the offset by half an inch, but not changed the clearance situation at all. Same for if you add or subtract an inch from the inside edge. The way for you to work this out is to take a wheel off the car, grab a straight edge and a ruler or two, and start to measure the distances from the wheel mounting face on the hub to the outer face of the caliper, and the outer diameter (that faces the barrel of the wheel) of the caliper. Armed with these dimensions and any other measurement that grabs your fancy while you are there, you can then go to the seller of the wheels and do the reverse measurements from the wheel's mounting face and see if there will be clearance to the caliper. There really should be. I have 17x8 RPF1s +35 clearing the caliper face by a finger tip. Those wheels do have pretty thin spokes with some curvature.... but then so do most wheels to suit Jap cars.
    • So I’ve got a r34 sedan that I managed to get green stickered, meaning I need to go through government approved wof station for my car to be allowed back on the road for some reason my car is certed for 19x8 rims.. I need these wheels  does anyone know what offset will be fine to clear Nissan big brakes? I saw 35et for sale near me, I can’t drive the car to test fit or risk being fined ..   I searched heaps online couldn’t find anywhere..
