I have curved slotted AP rotors and MX72 pads.

No noise at all (yet). first full day at the track with them tomorrow so will let you know after that.

J hooks apparently reported to be noisy. carbotechs noisy ++. but thats the trade off then i suppose for track performance.

what mix of street/track use do you have planned?

What he said. I am currently running the jhooks and they are a little noisy. Nowhere near as bad as say the carbotechs though! I would buy and use the jhooks again for a daily drive, it's not that bad, and does get a little quieter over time, i am guessing as the jhook edge gets worn.

Anyone got any input on this question, I am told the J Hooks might be a bit more noisey and thus not so good for street driving ??

alcon 2 peice rotor 378mm , this is come with hub is better

for the ap racing is only direct replacement using standard hub from your standard

please check on ebay store

u can see some over there

50:50 road vs race/track so might go with JHooks ...

I have AP slotted and Carbotech pads for the track, MX 72s for the street. Before I tracked the Carbotechs the thing made more noise than the space shuttle, but after a hard days track work they were very quiet. White 35's J Hooks are a little noisier again .

      Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went?

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By sausagepianist · Posted

      Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was ￡307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell.

      As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?

      To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.

      Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
