So yes I have 8 pot 330mm D2s on the front (same as K sports maybe?) and R32 GTR brakes on the rear but I think the D2s were an extravagance (need replacement rotors at over $1000 now) and would recommend the GKTech (its an Aussie company) big brake kit if it fits the Stagea (I think it should):

s1 = anything to suit r32/r33

s2 = anything to suit r34

Have you put r34 brakes on an s2? I am asking as I have an s2 rs (rwd) that I have put r34 gtt brakes on. The bolts were m12, r34 brakes are m14. I machined new m12 inserts for the r34 calipers. perhaps rs vs rs4 is different?

yup, mine is a s2 running r34 front brakes

must be the rwd part, front struts are similar to s15 from memory so apparently rwd is the exception to the rule there

should also add r32,33 and 34 rear brakes are the same

I've got a 32 D2 kit on my S1.....never had an issue with em.

Bob that replacement sounds expensive, have you tried a couple of places? In any case, at least you only have to replace the rings and not whole discs including centres

The brakes themselves are great...but I got carried away at Hampton Downs a couple of weeks ago and got some serious metal to metal in the brakes. In fact they have been machined and look ok but the NZ agents for D2s cannot supply replacement rotors - only pads. I have asked around and the only source I have found are Race Brakes and they will be AP rotors (of which D2s are copies).

I haven't tried the Aussie rotor manufacturers yet but will do.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...

      Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
