Hi All,

Ive managed to get hold of R34 GTT calipers and some DBA 4000 rotors to replace the standard S2 front brake setup.

I know this upgrade has been done in the past, so can somebody please advise which brake lines to use? I am looking to go braided (I know HEL do a r34 kit) but will this fit? I believe the setup on the stagea is different to the R34...?

I plan on upgrading the rears later but at this point will be sticking with the standard rears brakes (with braided r34 lines as they usually come in a kit)...

Any help is appreciated,

Cheers,

Adrian

I bought this exact GOODRIDGE set for my 34 brakes to S2 stagea, bolt on, and nice quality.

I'm surprised they fit... I might have to line up the 34 lines with the stags to see what will fit....

cheers

This should have been asked in the Stagea brakes thread, but I'll forgive you as you're pretty new here to the SAU community... In the future, your best bet is to do a search for your question, as most of these issues (especially for the C34-chassis) have been dealt with before.

Regarding your question, though, just make sure that the lines you get are ADR complaint, or it's one more thing for the car to be defected on. There are plenty of companies that do custom braided lines that comply, so it shouldn't be too hard to find.

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.

      STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
