ok ok

this is the way i've done it...

Fitted up new URAS brake shoes which fit straight in.

unwound the handbrake level completely

put disc on hub (over shoes)

adjusted the little cog at the bottom both sides until wheels wouldnt turn, and then wound a little off

put wheels back on

lowered down

adjusted (tightened with 10mm) at handbrake lever (and again...and again)

still not 100% happy with my result - is this how everyone else has done it?

i'm going to take it all apart and start again tomorrow (needs to be ready for G1 drift SATURDAY!)

thanks.

-Matt

cables may be stretched... that or the pads are poo (i havent tried them personally so i cant comment but could be a possibility?)

have also been told getting sand paper and roughing up the surface on the inside of the rotor which the shoes grip to helps also

i took rims off both sides

both drums off

h/brake off

and just tightened em till i couldnt slide the drum back on,then backed it off til they slid on.

worked well for me,as u know after swappin slides at lala.

also thing ur cables are streched..... ur handbrake was very "rubbery"

well i think i've solved it

in the shed it feels insane - but have to test on the road i guess :S

i did all the same but wound the lever out HEAPS!!! this gave me a hell of a lot more adjustment at the hubs - it sort of just feels right now... fingers crossed - also blew out the dust with a compressor, and scuffed the shoes and inside of disc!

will post up results.

      R35 GT-R production ends after 18 years

      By Rezz · Posted

      Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By MBS206 · Posted

      21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.

      Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
