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.

cheeres. :(

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.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
