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

    • My son saw this Porsche 904 in Yodoyabashi in Osaka, not sure if it's the plastic or fibreglass version 767605763.559358.mp4
    • I agree re not trusting it as it makes mistakes however can do hours of research for you at times by simply asking a question
    • The I've done a lot of research and feel like I'm becoming a nut and washer expert. The washer in question doesn’t look very conical—it’s almost flat, but one side has a chamfer. The guide's picture shows the convex side (chamfered side) facing the nut, but the text says the chamfer should face the pulley, which is confusing. If I follow the picture, the chamfer faces the nut, but the instructions say the opposite. When I place the washer on a flat surface, one side looks flatter—maybe that's the concave side—so I would expect the chamfer to be on that side. But it isn’t, which adds to the confusion. The term chamfer is also throwing me off. I always thought the concave side should face the pulley, and the convex side (with the chamfer) should face the nut or bolt head. But Nissan’s instructions say the chamfer should face the pulley, which seems backward. I know I’m probably overthinking it, but I want to be sure I’m doing it right. Also, I’ve seen some people replace the nut and stud with a bolt, but I assume that’s not a good idea, since it might not keep proper tension on the tensioner. Lastly, just to be 100% sure: the pressure washer should face the pulley, then the conical washer? That feels strange, since usually the pressure washer goes first, facing the bolt or nut.
    • I checked, i dont think it was the indicator stalk. The problem just magically fixed itself though. 
    • H1 is not the Humvee, but is the most road based version. Lachlan (HankScorpio) on here has a proper Humvee. He imported it a few years back.
