Hell you guy's, talkin bout cheap parts.

I went to nissan today and paid $83.00 for the full set, and both operators commented they were the cheapest "disc brake hardware set" they have for nissan's.

Who's getting taken for a ride here, i quoted CRZY32's part no's which were correct, i pay $83 he gets quoted $72. Hmm, sure is dear to live in Sydney.

Hi, really sorry for digging up this thread, but I wanted to ask if those anti-squeal shims are worth having?

I got quoted $146.87 + gst for the factory hardware kit

(Part Code: 41080K

Part Number: 41080-21U25 "HARDWARE KIT - FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD”)

that MerlinTheHapyPig posted.

So those of you that have these shims on your skyline would you say there worth it? Do they really make that extra difference?

I’ve had new slotted rotors and pads fitted on my R33 GTS25t and the brakes STILL squeal :O

Will these 146.87 + gst shims save my ears and the peoples ears down the road and the birds that fly away when they here me braking?

Someone look up prices/part numbers for a set of front shims for R33 GTR Brembos for me :O

Can have mine Andrew when I pull them down soon. I never use them. Occasionally you need to give pads a decent heat cycle and use the right stuff on the back, like moly grease, very thin.

Endless are just crap and will destroy your rotors, but you'll have plenty of pad left.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
