UPDATED 20/9/2006

ALL 2 BATCHES SUBMITTED (26 PEOPLE, ALMOST 40 PAIRS OF ROTORS) SUCCESSFULLY. GROUP BUY HAS ENDED.

GROUP BUY RE-OPENED, THE 3RD BATCH IS IN THIS NEW THREAD

Hi All,

I had contacted a rep from the RDA Brakes (Rotors & Drums Australia) and they're willing to give a good deal/discount depending on the qty that we ordered.

Slotted Rotors

Grooved Dimpled (Dimpled & Slots)

More info can be found here: RDA Brakes Products

Also, I have attached a zip file of RDA disc rotor part number for Nissan cars (Download and open Zip file, then open the XLS file, and just click read-only at the password prompt).

The list of group buy people is as in this spreadsheet (zipped):

<spreadsheet removed to protect pricing structure, not available to general public, only to serious buyers pm me only>

People listed above please open the spreadsheet attachment and see if your car, slot/dimple, and front/rear options are correct.

PM me with any errors or amendments, do not update the excel spreadsheet. I will confirm the part numbers with RDA so to ensure

you will get the correct parts.

Regards,

Rianto

depends how much i'm quoted on a pair from another source... i may be in as my front rotors need machining so i might as well upgrade...

how long till close? id need about a fortnight... :S

lunaticR32 - i've put you in, r32 gtst should be no probs, I think you can use the same rotors as r33 gtst ones, i've got an excel sheet of all nissan parts they have i'll check later.

freddykruger - at the moment we're still gauging interest so I can go back to RDA n say "x ppl interested and about x pairs of rotors will b ordered, what's ur best deal?" you can jump in later once the group buy starts rolling.

prelude_1976 - i've put you in. don't think they make cross drilled. even DBA discourage use of cross drill in hi performance applications as they tend to crack. for best strength maybe you'd b better off with dimpled ones (see pics on 1st thread). but i'll ask the guy at rda if they can cater your need.

Dimpled and slotted is fine.

Ive got cross drilled at the moment and its got deep grooves from the pads, so totally unserviceable, hence the need for new rotors.

Put me in for front and rear, R32 GTR

Thanks

^^ im guessin ones just your normal slotted ones..

The other ones have dimples in them (the little holes) plus the slots.. So greater effect of removing dirt and cooling etc etc..

frankxinyu, I'll put your name in the list.

basically the dimples one are almost like cross drilled. but unlike cross drilled where the strength and integrity of the disc could be compromised by removing the material from the drilling process, in dimpled that effect is not as bad. you've still got the slot to disperse the build ups between pads and rotor surface, plus the dimples also helps it even more, and cosmetically it will look as if a cross drilled rotors.

Hi rs73

Good work with the gb thread :D , still definately interested will take the front slotted (not dimpled) for R33 GTST. Also do you have a rought guesstimate on how much postage will be?

i'll ask them a rough estimate of delivery costs...

R34 GTT front slotted 310mm??

I'm asking that to RDA at the moment, waiting for their reply. They should have the same size with DBA as their part no can be cross-checked with DBA as well. Have a look at the first post, I have added an XLS spreadsheet attachment for all Nissan cars. (You do not need to enter password to open the file in read-only mode).

I;ve added myself in the list as I want the rear slot rotors :D

So how much for a set of R32 GTR rotors?

Sorry, I haven't got full price list at the moment but expect to be about $500 for a full set not including group buy discount. So with group buy discount you may be looking at about $370-$390 for a full set.

I'll try to get more price list from the guy at RDA as I've told him we now have about 7 people interested and about 10 pairs of rotors might be ordered, so he'll know that we're serious and won't be wasting their time... :-)

Rear R33/R32/R34 turbo rotors are the same I'm pretty sure, so the group buy would also suit rears on these cars. You might want to update the top so that people are aware of this.

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
