Am toying with the idea of upgrading my brakes on my GTR. Wondering what the stock R35 brake system are worth if i sell them. They will be complete (front and rear calipers, pads, rotors). Mileage about 17,000 km. Rotors are fine with no cracks or excessive wear. Calipers are near perfect. Anyone interested?

You can buy replacement AP (stocker sized) rotors for about $850 ea. and someone mentioned calipers are $1700 or thereabouts? (might be worth calling nissan to confirm). I wouldnt mind a spare set. Have a think and post up a price :D

Hi,

I'll be keeping them on for a while till i see how the new AP/Stillen Carbon Ceramic brakes are priced & reviewed. Dont know how much Nissan sells the OEM Brembo calipers but knowing how expensive OEM partss are $1,700 each sounds cheap. For instance a friend recently had to replace the engine oil cooler on his R35 due to damage and the Nissan price for just the engine oil cooler is $5,000.

AP rotors at $850 each sounds like a good deal but i think this price does not include the aluminium hats and bolts etc which have to be re-used. Replacement Alcon rotors come with new hats but are more expensive.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
