hey peeps, im looking for some 355mm "f50" discs for my car, (upgrading the 340mm (f40) ones.

where to get them from? i know i could just get ap/brembo/pfb. but im not to keen on spending 1200+ just on new rotors.

is there any alternative?

or. for the record 355x32 or 34.

You could look at getting some used Carrera Cup or V8 Supercar rotors... 365 377 x generally 35, but then you'll need to get hats and mounts made up so not so easy to go cheap on big rotors.

Are you limited by rim diameter or the diameter of the rotor you can run? Also, what is the max thickness the calipers take with regards to rotors? There are a few places around that have surplus B8 Supercar rotors from before they were running 365mm and up rotors. Not sure what they have in stock though

I got DBA 5000 series for a FPV GT (355x32, $650 each) for my GTR, and i got spacers made for the center bores. That was to go with the Porsche GT3 6Pots.

You can also get the HSV ones, they'r the same size, but just have a deeper hat on them

well these are behind 17's. (yes they fit. i theoreticly can run a 360mm rotor. but thats with about 1mm clearance to the rim. i dont want a stone getting caught in there and cutting my wheel inhalf lol.

the calipers are the "f50" brembo. same as a big red but suited to bigger discs. i think ther known as "big blacks"

v8 ones would be ok. but i need hats aswell. oh this is going to be gay.

yeah the dba ones arnt deep enough. and the same money as brembos.

""""So you need hats and rotors? The Brembo 355mm are pricey, for the rotor alone they are $620 each last time i checked for a friend.""""

355MM X 32MM rotors can get and are about $595 each for skylines

is that for rotor and alloy hat? The DBA price was rotor and alloy hat.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
