Roy Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I bought them as i was curious to see if the KTS 6 pots whcih are a Endless knock off are any good. They seem reasonable, well. I am told, as they were delivered to a friend who had a look at them as i am still OS. Told that they look to be on par with the K-Sport gear, are not curved vane rotors. Was going to give them a try, but from what i am hearing i am better of stickign with my original plan of using my 6 pot Alcons Cheap as in, what they cost me which is about what you pay for R33 GTR Brembos I think they are the same as what Boxhead runs on his white S14. Not sure they are any better then Nissan Brembos on a 324mm rotor, but they do work out cheaper.

Roy Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 You need to use the funky chicken dance backwards hand grip like Roy and im sure you will be fine with Boxes Its all in the reach around. I want a cool kids ghearbox as it will make me feel like a driving god. Who gives a shit abotu how quick you are going. Sure its nice to go quick, but in my eyes my car rocks as it feels like you are going fast, so good enough is close enough to actually going fast. The gearbox will just improve the show...also good practice on how to drive a car with a proper box Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/296249-superlap-2010-ramblings/page/59/#findComment-5253422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sav man Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Look elsewhere, you can get RB20 syncro sets from ~$3400 and dog set for about $5000 oh what, i already ordered 5 sets then and there at the ppg tent .

PHaT MR30 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Albins do an RB20 box for about $5.5k PAR do for $4.6K +gst (about $5K) dunno about Albins, but PAR give you a bunch of options. Marcus just put a PAR 1st~5th Dog set in the sprinter and im quite amazed, Good value for money.

giant Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 the r32 was great fun to drive, i must admit i kept baulking myself with the recent brake issues i have had and the nice big hit at the creek afew weeks ago. the holinger is superb!! , i borrowed suspension on thursday from beer baron as we didnt have time to revalve and respring the ohlins in the car. ( thanks again mate) they were much better but with some much grip the sping needed to be nearly doubled. alsoa big thanks to John Pelington for letting us use his shop to rebuild the engine and change it over! congratulations to all the competitors for some awsome driving and some beautifully presented cars, some of the times are a real credit to the drivers. ( also not many big issues for the speeds etc) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/296249-superlap-2010-ramblings/page/59/#findComment-5253513 Share on other sites More sharing options...
