Hey guys, need some info on the best pads for good price to go onto brembo equipped GTR, hopefully not too dusty coz i got white rims, only ask coz my old ones scream like mad and i am going insane driving it

Not to many pads don't leave dust and with the GTR brembos road pads are limited.I would recommend if you are a fast driver use some EBC redstuff or DS2500 Ferodo also HAWK are good.

The Ferodo DS2500s will dust up like you wouldn't believe. But they work.

If you do drive quick, as PMATT says, then being able to stop consistently should be more important than having to clean your rims frequently.

If its a problem, get the OEM pads.They're not as bad on dust, and at least you know they're available. I've heard good things about HAWKs being relatively low-dust though.

As everyone has said, it depends on what you are wanting - stopping or no dust. Unfortunately you can't have both.

If it is no -dust, try the EBC Greenstuff pads. Not the best thing for the track (although some use them there), but they are sold as a "Dustless" brake pad.

Not a bad street pad, and definitely very little brake dust.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
