Evo Brembo Brake Conversion

Hi, I was looking around at pricing and options for my r33 gts-t and the evo brake kit looked quite good.  Where is the best place to get the brackets from ?

I found this place cheaper http://madparts.net/version-2-evo-89-to-nissan-240sx-brembo-caliper-conversion-br289240.html

I know alot of ppl have used Alpha Omega for their brackets.  Im all for buying local but their prices are a bit high.  Website prices don't include GST or delivery

http://alphaomegaracing.com/c/63/R33.html

Calipers with gst and delivery will be $1450-1500. You don't have to look to hard to find these at around $1k

rotors $520+, can get for about $400

brackets are around $900 with gst and postage. I think for just a few brackets that is a bit steep, when the brackets themselves cost nearly the same amount as the actual evo calipers.

Any other thoughts or ideas ?

Isn't this the answer to your question?

Ive googled quite a bit on here and you come up quite a bit in brake threads so u know your stuff.

Evo brakes around 1400-1500. The Attkd brakes are around 2200.  How much more better are the attkd brakes compared to the evo brembo's ?   Also for future parts like rotors and pads would the attkd be more expenisve with less options than the evo's ?

My thoughts are that once you get to the point of spending as much as you have to to put Evo brakes onto a car, that paying a little more for brand new equipment is probably worth serious consideration.

There are plenty of people on here who have these or related brakes on their cars and love them.  They use a common sized pad.  And when the rotors need replacing you will probably find there are options available. I haven't looked into that part of it because I'm not looking for more braking.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!

      I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...

      Water leaking into the rear trunk

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.

      I hate it, but maybe he could paint it Monster jam style and call it...godzilla?

      Would seem to me to be appropriate to go GTR style bar. There are options with and without N1 vent holes, with the GTR lower lip integral (because FG copy). https://justjap.com/search?q=r32 bumper
