Rotors:

Front (slotted pair) $495

Rear (Unable to source any)

Pads:

Front bendix ultimate $109

Rear bendix ultimate $150

Sourced from justjap.com - someone else may have better pricing available.

Just bought some cams for my baby. Can't wait to put them in and see how she's goes with a retune.

Very nice, Still waiting for my cooler to arrive hope to get it in next weekend now then get Pete to tune it while I am on call.

Fingers are crossed man.

You aren't allowed to get yours tuned before me ya bastard Bahahahaha.

! The race is on, That thing of yours is going to be insane once it's done.

I am considering changing to adjustable cam gears when I do my 100k service gotta find some good quality ones to replace the stock ones.

The HKS 1's I just got look a lot better then they did a few years back. They have a few issues with the material they used on the cogs, as it was wearing away pretty badly. Had a mate with some and they weren't to old when we noticed it wearing.

Just can't wait to hear the idle when done. Hoping for an extra 40+hp with out touching boost levels, but if boost goes up, well that would be a shame lol.

RDA slotted rotors are the best value for money that I have found. Not sure exactly how much you'll get them for though as it's been a while since I got mine.

I'd recommend EBC greenstuff pads for street use with some spirited driving (eg happy laps, touge). I used to use them, but moved up to redstuff for sprints. EBC do good pads.

Well the Bluetooth is in man alpine build good products, Need to do sound deadening and buy an Imprint to go with it.

the 32 got it's recirc valve put back on for road worthy.

Time to drink some scotch.

Thanks for that martin. I will have a look into RDA.

DBA are ok too but at $240 EACH i dont really have the budget for them as i think i need to change all 4 rotors.

pending on the model you have, RDA's will set you back a bit more possibly. i paid around 550 for the fronts and 450-500 for the rears for a 34gtt. they were the slotted and dimpled ones though, so the normal ones they have may be had at a good price. RDA are also reluctant in giving out prices, but as smitty said a bloody good rotor, i much perfer these over DBA.

Pads, i use ProjectMu B-Spec, nice pad, used in sprints as well as daily. They've seen about 6 rack days and my car gets used 5-6 days a week and they still have decent meat on them. they get squeaky from time to time, but normally a bit of spirited driving fixes that up. only other pads i've used are bendix ultimates, not to bad for street use, not real flash on the track.

    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
    • I was just going to say that it's good to see you picking up the pace again. Hope the surgery goes well. More downtime just means more time to come up with new ways of digging a deeper rabbithole  
    • How do they compare in size? I have the Yaris coil packs in mine and they work fine. But they are either bigger or sit differently so the engine cover doesn't fit anymore. Not the end of the world but not great either. Do the R35 ones sit flush?
    • Righto,  enough of ADHD Anonymous! 🤣🤣 Rear end is completely stripped out apart from coil overs that will take 5 minutes.  Fingers crossed it doesn't look like that for too long!   Cleaning up some bits as I go so they can go straight back on. It amazes me how good stuff looks just with a good hard scrub! That will be it for a couple of weeks. I've got ot a bit of surgery Friday that will put me out of action for a few weeks. Hopefully the motivation is still there when I'm ready to get back into it!
    • The povo spec CA18S one, yeah. All turbos had 16x6.5 5 stud and 4pot brakes.
