selling these coz they are a bit overkill for a drift car :lol:

these are the old school GREX/greddy upgraded brakes made by alcon (before greddy started using Taiwanese calipers)

they come with mounting brackets, shims, etc and will bolt up to any silva/cefiro/laurel/skyline that uses a 12mm bolt to mount the caliper. they come with braided lines to suit a R33 (possibly r32?) and could be easily adapted to suit a silvia.

the rotors consist of custom made hats to accept a AP racing 343x32 rotor (which is practically new)

brake pads are unknown brand, but still have 10mm of meat and have 'competition use' stamped onto them.

they are freaken light and can fit under the right 17s, they are pretty grotty as they have been sitting around for a few years

chasing $3000. can deliver no worries.

err. i have seen brembos in the same 'condition' go for $1500. they are pretty much new pads, and rotors. everything else is just dirty

don't get me wrong i'm open to offers. but not lowballers.

I agree with the commander, and the 'condition' is just brake dust, assuming they've been drained, flushed with metho and stored in a dry environment they would be good still... even if they had'nt they stand a good chance. Having said that my opinion is $3k is a little high and $1800 - $2200 ( which I would pay if I was cashed up for it ) would be a good buy considering the rotors and pads are in with the deal.. my 2.2 cents ( GST incl. ) also free bump

cheers man, they have been sitting on a wreck in the shed for about 2.5 years. they worked fine driving in and out of the shed. no leaking or anything like that.

gotta remember these were originally sold with a 335mm rotor. the previous owner couldn't source new rotors to suit, so has new hats mate to suit a common AP rotor that is easy to source. that alone cost more than fly355s offer

Can you measure up the rotor again? Looking at this pic of the caliper mount, it appears as though there is a silver bush between the mount and the caliper, suggesting to me that the kit has more likely been modified to go from a 332mm rotor to a 355mm rotor. OR they were originally a 332mm kit and now run the larger 343mm rotor. Though to my eye the size of the mount suggests to me they are a 355 adaptor, and if those Regamasters are 18" then thats about all the clearance you would get with a 355mm rotor under that rim (I say that because my old Regas did not clear F40s on a 340mm rotor)

Either way they are a durable brake kit.

Hey guys,

They are definately 343mm rotors, and they are spacers under the caliper mounts. They were modded from the 332 to 343 because they guy said he couldnt source new grex rotors so he opted for AP 343mm ones.

And the Rega's are 17's, calipers cleared by 4-5mm.

CP3581-542G8 is the part number on the rotor. according to google that is a 343x32 rotor.

OR they were originally a 332mm kit and now run the larger 343mm rotor.
pretty sure this is the case.

price drop the $2500 anyways whistling.gif

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
