IMO R33 GTR brembos are overpriced.

Sometimes yahoo has bargains on BBK.

Very true. I got mine for under 1000 front and rear. Above that and they are not worth it and the China kits would be better.

Recently (yesterday) heard a few examples of the calipers being incorrectly machined and not fitting. It is a long way to send heavy ass brakes back because they don't fit!

Lots and lots of people have had a lot of success with these kits though!

I really wanted to get a Megan racing kit out of the US, but the American guys wouldn't sell to me because they had an Australian distributor and the Australian distributor would sell me any because he wanted to sell me Alcons instead.

These would have bolted up to my car, but noooo he claimed he had to machine up this that and the other thing to make it fit, lies

My mate picked up a Brembo kit for his alpha which is a 4 piston 326mm rota front and 2 piston rear, which was sent from Italy. He paid like $650 including delivery. its amazing how stupidly expensive brembo brakes for Skylines are, considering a good set of rotors and pads on the standard brakes are nearly as good.

makes me wanna play with cars again.........wait.........what's this skyline doin in my garage then :P

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
    • Bringing an old thread back to life Looking to put some new front shocks in the r33Gtst and the KYB still look ok for a road car. Unless there are any other options aroind that price $200 a shock?  I’d like to replace the strut tops also, is this the correct KYB no. For the strut top, KSM7124?  https://www.sparesbox.com.au/products/kyb-strut-top-mount-ksm7124?srsltid=AfmBOoq-HDru8wSlLnQrhU9gCw_uYdKg8gUQzONY-EQOdnI5iXOWEUjY 341287 appears to be the front KYB shocks part no.  thanks all   
    • LandCruiser used to get a fluid flush every 12 to 18 months.   Only because it was about that often the electric motor on the master for brake assist kept dieing and needing to come off.
