GReddy/GRex brake system replacements

Hi All,

Needing new brake pads and possibly even brake discs for my car.

I have a set of GReddy 6 pot Calipers with 355mmx32 brakes on the front, and GRex 4 pot 330mmx26 brakes on the rear on my R34 GT-R. These are NOT the alcon branded brakes, they are the ones seen here:

Fronts: https://www.nengun.com/greddy/6pot-brake-system

Rear: https://www.nengun.com/grex/brake-system

These kits and any replacement GReddy branded replacement discs and pads etc. are no longer in production.

I am wondering anyone else that runs this brake setup has replaced their brake pads with non-GReddy parts and if so, what fits?

Also, if anyone has had to replace their discs what fits, or did you have to get them custom made?

I have searched the interwebs and have found very little information regarding these brakes. Some say they are made by Rotora in the US (at least for USDM GReddy).

Other posts have mentioned that the front disc is a copy of the 355 x 32 Brembo rotor so the Brembo is a straight fit.

Calipers may be a copy of or even made by AP Racing...

So hopefully someone out there has been through replacing these parts and knows 100% what will or won't fit.

Thanks,

Paul

They look like the same as the AP 6 pot/G4/Attkd/D2 whatever pads to me....like GTSboy said trace them and see.  

Discs look harder since they are 10 bolt (m6?) and obviously we can't guess the PCD from a pic. Measure the offset and check them against the DBA catalogue to see if anything else will fit? Very likely you will have to change the hats as well, not just the rings

I suggest talking to Matt at RaceBrakes in Wetherill Park, he will be able to work out what does or does not fit.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Hey guys, need help figuring out why my driver side (RH) fuse 15amp keeps blowing. The Driver Sides Headlamp is out, i replaced these a long time ago with LED ones that were working for 1-2 years. Now, the driver side light is out and i traced it back to a broken fuse. I replaced the 15 amp fuse in the engine bay and as soon as i flip the headlight on, it blows the new fuse. Any idea what's going on?

      I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol

      It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.

      I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility
