hey guys

yeah before people say *search* :) i have but gotten quite a few different responses and there was a bit of confusion about them, but that was a while ago

so just wanted to know what are the brake pads for a r33 gts25 s2 n/a obviously

Is it DB1144 and DB1308 which ive seen on the forums.

or is it

DB1165 & DB1144 which i saw on the bendix website

im thinking of buying some from supercheap or autobarn or something and getting a mechanic to do it as im doing a level 2 driving course at murcotts on wednesday & dont have the time to try and do it myself :wacko:

I went to the bendix site and sent them a query email and gave me the part numbers for my NA R34 Sedan (Not GT-V).

These are the part number for the NA R34 - not sure if they are the same...

Front:DB1308

Rear:DB1144

Just out of curiousity, does anyone know how much they retail for at Repco etc? Also what options are available, regular, sports pads...?

According to Bendix website they have a standard pad and a heavy duty pad to suit work utes but no sports option.

Originally i was looking for Bendix ultimates but decided to go for General CTs instead due to the other advantages and the fact I realised i don't really drive my car that hard majority of the time.

I did give them a good run on my last trip to great ocean road and thought of them highly.

The Bendix General CT (ceramic), retail for around $70 for the front and about $90 for the rear... odd considering the rears are smaller :P

Things to note about the General CT - as it may not suit everyone's needs.

- Slightly softer feel - less feedback - but you can definately feel them grabbing.

- Good overall performance - not as good as the heavy duty (metals) for long high speed braking - but still very consistent and competent for the price and other advantages. If your really need to slow down from high speed best down shift. ;)

- Quiet

- Minimal dust

- Great grabbing power when brakes are stomped.

- Smell nicer - smell like buscuits - if that even matters hahaha :D

- Most likely wear faster (I also have genaral CT on my Bluebird and have noticed this) - but at least your rotors will last longer....

      It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.

      Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.

      Possible option to replace central computer 370 V36

      By Vee37 · Posted

      I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out

      I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
