WOOOOOT, Happy to hear it Andy.

im not entirely happy with pedal feel...seems I might need a bigger brake cylinder...and like you say some braided lines but even still they are heaps better than stock! The control is awesome, you can keep them on max braking with out locking so much easier for some reason :)

Brembos are designed with even brake pad application in mind... Hence why its harder to look them up...

Causing max pad to disc application, causing max friction...

Brembo = good

Interesting!

Good indeed!

32 GTR's have ABS so I can imagine 33's do as well.

Hey noel, is it raining out that way? Theres a test n tune on tonight...

Just counting the hours till i can go out to the bank Ian, No rain at all mate. cya out there.

Do the R33 gtr's come with ABS brakes. Would be interesting to see how The Brems went on ASB.

They do but alot of people I know dont like it that much....I really dislike the ABS on my R33 GTST..and now having driven a non ABS car with good brakes I think you are better off with out it!

I will let you see for your self tomorrow but

Sounds like the brems are an ABS unit unto themselves Andy. mumble mumble...more damn money for brembos now, :)

Yeah..but way more effective! I think the ABS cuts in too early!

From 60 I hit the Brakes as hard as I could and all I got out of the fronts was a slight shudder so it locked up slightly...and that was when I was trying to make them lock up doing every thing wrong on purpose!

Try it on a rainy day after it hasnt rained for 3 weeks then tell me if they are good :) or your tyres are shizen With the standard calipers a set of slotted rotors with some decent pads will just be as good as brembos plus you have got to look at 2 factors here, how often you are using them what power are you using them with what application are your main use for them ie: street, drift, drag. There is an acceptible bracket there before you have to fork out for brembo brakes, not only there are some similar packages which are in par with brembos so keep that in mind :) thats my comment for the day

:)

Oh my 2c worth abs is shizen as well better off with no abs i say and use your experience that is another thing on this matter :)

Oops i forgot to mention suspension and tyres will have a big effect on braking as well so consider these aswell and merry easter/good friday to you all

Heres my 2c coming from actual driving experiences

I had standard calipers with DBA 4000 rotors and good pads, I had no where near the braking control I do now, I fact it was woeful and pinacle braking was really hard to pick...now it is easy to do with out thinking. Further more they could over heat after a decent drive in the mountains let alone at a track day.

And the Brembos I got were half the price of a Grex or similar kit...in fact they were cheaper than G4s!

Rahhh andy i did quote depending what application and oh wtf half price discount grrr 2nd hand or new Damn i should have edited my first post Main principle here would be needing to consider what "application" it would be used for, as i would image yes the brembos would help during trackdays or leisurely drives through the mountain due to disc size and caliper size as well. but my mistake was based on main street use there would be real no acceptional need for them unless the overall power was highish as would be needed in most street applications that if the power was substantial you would have to indeedly invest into a decent brakinging pakage. Bah ill shutup now :|

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
