Stagea Brakes

[WAGON_BOY]

also try using some anti squeel compound on them it might help!!!

Ditto. The 25G, S1 RS4 and 33GTST pads are all different. I have some of the shims but not all. Let me know how you get on trawling the wreckers and if you are going ebay.

Would 300ZX fit R33GTST 4 pots? And I guess i will need a set for the RS4 stock 2 pots.

Any pad that fits a Sumitomo 4 pot caliper will be suitable; that also includes 200SX, Subaru, etc.

Thanks heaps for that^

Its the search criteria that was getting me, I was trying things like "squeal+plate" etc with no result.

"Brake shim kit" wins.

I have not a single item installed in that picture.

Never mind.

If my wrecker trawl fails I will just get a set in from the US like shown.

Thanks again.

No drama; it might even be worth pricing them through Nissan in Australia, you never know what the prices are like.

I've seen wreckers try to charge through the roof for those parts; and I'm sure they remove them just so they can take two bites.

Thats where I got all my Sumitomo pins and clips, they were fairly well priced as I remember.

Regarding the R34 4 piston caliper squeal plates/pad shims.

I found a part number through searching a bit further (silvia.com i think had a thread) and rang Nissan Rockingham.

So the part number I got was 41080 - 21U25.

The price was something like $180, to be honest I tuned out once the kid said one hund....

The guy on the phone couldn't explain adequately what the kit contained so I may have been getting more than i asked.

Dont know if it would be worth trying other nissan dealers.

Anyone have any confirmation on the part number above and whether the price is legit?

Also this was found in the thread..

That pic is the goods. The set is listed as 41080K, GC Nissan quoted $169 ex Japan

Import Monster may be better if we can order a few sets.

This set off Ebay is starting to look pretty good now huh?

Maybe get a few people together to save on postage.

JIS used to sell the shim kits for under $100 new. Might be worth seeing if they still do.

cheers for the link mate

TBH I think they are a good buy at the price they are. Going to (eventually) buy a set for my Stags front R32 sumitomos

[66yostagea]

Well I am going to get some. If any one wants a set about $60 will cover purchase and post. Let me know ASAP.

The link that I posted will get them in your hand for $49.38 And that's without combining postage for multiple purchases.

Just sayin'

[shane344]

Gave up and ordered a set from the US... as usual australian markups suck.

Thanks

Have ordered 2 sets as I am also going GTST on the 25G.

[dirtyRS4]

i agree with shane, these OEM shim kits are available in th US at a good price.

Looking to upgade the brakes on a C34 s2 RS4S and I'm 99% sure I have this right.

Can those who have done it please confirm that r34 gtt front brakes and rotors are a direct bolt on with no mods required, just need braided lines to make it all fit?

[Bodella]

And one other thing, what master brake cylinder stopper did people use? I assume that r33/34 one will do the job.

[wolverine]

From memory needed braided lines for the rear pretty sure fronts could be re-used (but I wasn't supplied with the OEM R34 lines).

BMC stopper is identical for my R33 and S2 stagea.

I was hoping you would reply, now I know I'm good to spend money

[import_zone]

i used standard R34 GTT lines all round. but better to get braided front. rears are fine to bolt up. as for BMC its the Same as the R33/R34 cusco do one for the Stagea. there is a picture in the mod thread on here.

[potkin]

Hey guys.

Seriously long thread you got here. was skimming trough the pages and what i could see, The FRONT pads for a S1 is the same as for an Maxima -2000 right?

this is what i found at ebay:

Stagea s1 pads: greenstuff pads

Oem pads

Maxima qx a33 v6 24v -2000:

Oem nissan pads

brembo pads

they seem to be the same?

note: i didnt find the maxima brakes at first, but then i realised i was on the au ebay, not the uk one. maybe the pads are different on european models?

Edit: if you scroll down on the brembo ones it looks like they match the oem pads, measures are the same.

have anyone got the measurements for the stagea brakes? havent take mine off yet but will do this weekend.

/cheers from Sweden
