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.

All of the above screams of trying too hard.

Just brake later, turn in harder.

How many rb20 boxes you blown now? :)

I'd only be temped to a good box if it was reeeeel cheap, and i was blowing std boxes left right and centre. As long as I remember Roys anal anaegy i think i'll be right

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 :)

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 :) . I can see why he was so lonly at his tent after hearing his prices

so there are people that make rb20 sets?

Precisely three.

In over 5,000klm of competetive kilometres.

At a few hundred bucks a pop.

I think the sums work out :)

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.

Thanks mate ill keep them in mind :(

gotta sort out some decent supension and brakes as Im trying to get the car ready for Next years Superlap (see I kept on topic lol)

Aww but who will be my start/finish!!! lol Good stuff Andrew!!

:)

You could buy a 2nd hand hollinger for that much

Pfft if you can find one...

P.s I m looking for if anyone knows where one is! Contact me please :)

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)

    • Coming home late at night and driving past the police is the only reason i need one haha And yeh, definitley needs a switch to quickly enable it, dont have time to be getting my phone, opening an app, waiting for it to update etc before being able to make the change
    • Because it is financially convenient for them lol. Why wouldn't they want to give you the lowest possible valuation for your car?
    • Yep. @Duncan also shannons they will rip you dry and will be probably limited on how much you can drive. Also keep in mind that you always have to have it garaged with Shannons, with enthusiasts as per their PDS you can have it 2 times per week on the driveway for example. 
    • I had a generic 4" Varex rear box on my old V8, worked a treat for sneaking home late at night, it was as quite as stock when closed The car was "fairly" loud when open as it consisted of 1" 7/8 headers to 3" catted Y pipe, to 4" single, it did have a resonator in the mid pipe and only the Varex out the back I also hard wired in a Varex dash mount switch, as the key fob thing is a pain to use when driving I wouldn't recommend giving the beans when it is closed though as it creates a large restriction in the exhaust  It also can in very handy when pulled over for "random" breath tests or just cruising past the constabulary   
    • Here is the before and after of the scraping/sanding of the IC pads on the tachometer board for the fix mentioned in this thread. And yes it worked fine after. Just a note if you change any components on the board the tach calibration can be wrong showing the wrong idle etc...only problem is once it is installed back in the cluster you can't get to it to adjust...ouch! My fix was to cut out the calibration pot (the blue one) from the board and run it with two wires to the fuse panel under the dash where I could adjust the idle calibration once everything was installed. And yes I soldered everything up again including the half soldered components either side of the IC in my photos
