i found out some info today u guys might like to know. i went to QLD transport today and asked the guys in the compliance office about brake upgrades. he said that fiiting the brakes from a R34 gtt would require a mod plate, but u can fit the brakes from a 260RS (brembos) with no need 4 a mod plate as long as they r from the same year model stagea (but im thinking as long as the part numbers r the same on gtr brembos as stagea, it wont matter). so u guys that have done the gtt upgrade may want to check, as u could have voided ur insurance!! whats that gonna cost ya!!

good info

I've found that simply using stainless steel braided brake lines front and rear has improved the braking 100fold.

That and front slotted DBA rotors off the shelf, with new stnd Bendix pads.

very very very very good and sufficient braking right there ^ at bugger all cost and heartache

definately a "performance" upgrade in my opinion. all you have to do is provide your insurance broker a list of all your mods and its all good (I use Shannons).

just asked my local nissan dealer regarding s2 stagea brakes

jap codes as follows

Front AY040-NS098

Rear AYO60-NS029

he said he was going to try and find out more about them and how to get them in will let you know how i go

Hi having my pads rebonded should have them back this week will let all know how it goes and price ! Running modified navara 01 3.0 turbo diesel pads at moment till i get my pads back ! have been running these pads for 10 months without a problem and have been brutal on them at times . will inform on my other pads asap !

where did u get the braided lines from?? did u ask 4 stagea 1s or do u have to ask 4 something else that still fits stagea (example: ask 4 skyline R33 gtst or something)

AlexCim went to Maltech and got them custom made - they now do them for Stagea's. He had an accident, I bought his brake parts so thats where these came from. Contact Maltech in VIC and get prices; not expensive & good value IMO.

Hi All,

I've been watching this topic with some interest.

But don't believe I've seen a definitive answer yet for a series 2 stagea on brake rotors

and pads that can bolt straight on like original equipment no machining OD down 5-6mm etc....

I would like to just walk into a bursons, repco, autobahn..etc..... buy rotors, pads go home bolt

them on and be back on the road in 2hrs.

Am I dreamin??

https://www.rhdjapan.com/home/products/prod...product_id=3910 give them your VIN number when you order, and they will make sure you get the right ones, 187$ per end delivered in 7 days is pretty fkn good for endless SSS, sponsors sell them for 240+

Hi There,

Thanks for the feedback.

Just found this link, not sure if anyone has seen/mentioned it before.

Looking at the picture they look fairly similar to whats on my car,

will have a better look tomorrow morning.

The Z33 is real popular i seem them everywhere, same listing/same pad?

Maybe check out the stock at the shops for Z33 pads as a possibility.

Fingers crossed this leads to an option.. :glare:

awesome work on the part numbers listings have been looking for something like this for ages.

i reckon the mods or anyone else who knows how to, need to put this in the sticky section under the parts listings etc.?

good work there NEO

cheers oxford

    • Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product  
    • They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.

    • 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!
