Compared to A1RM, the HPX isn't as dusty. I've had noisy pad thing happen to me, just pull them off, roughen up the face and re-bed, been quite ever since (all three instances of me changing pads).
My GT-R came with Green stuff and they were shit (I rear ended someone with them lol). Changed to QFM HPX and the difference was huge (didn't even do a brake bleed/flush).
What didn't you like about the Intima SR? They're supposed to be equivalent to QFM A1RM, right?
Don't get an Astra.
My Liberty (turbo) averages 10.2L/100km (according to trip meter), my manual N16 was averaging 7.5L/100km.
My cousin's GH Impreza hatch (2L auto) does about 8L/100km I think if he's not thrashing it. Well one day he came to my house and his trip meter showed 14L/100km, another time it showed 7.8L/100km lol.
Perhaps. Or some old arse wheels from the 70's/80's.
I've seen those Magnesium wheels on YAJ but obviously not in those sizes (smaller 17" for Silvias).
I quite liked my stocker RB20 in my old R32, was a good stock motor (ate and spat out a bolt, destroying the stocker turbine) and was good on petrol. But mine wasn't making 400hp.
But since you're going to take the engine out, put an LS1 in.
