My front rotors are warped and I have given myself 2 options.

Option 1

Bolt on a used brembo set from a BNR34

This is quite costly and I might have to deal with warped stock BNR34 rotors too.

Option 2

Aftermarket replacement rotors

For option 2, I have narrowed down my choices to the below:-

1) Dixcel HD

2) Dixcel HS

3) Project Mu Pure Plus 6 slit

4) Endless Straight 6

Are there any users/those in the know of the above here that can give comments/reviews?

Many thanks in advance. :)

SKY 34, considered it but not too sure if it will affect the FR and RR brake bias and also whether it will clear the rims.

BHDave, thanks for the input.

Howie, as below:-

1) Dixcel HD - around Y24000

2) Dixcel HS - around Y38000

3) Project Mu Pure Plus 6 slit - around Y20000

4) Endless Straight 6 - around Y42000

The above excludes shipping from Japan.

With option 2, you have missed local DBA and RDA rotors, both makes ones to suit and a fair bit cheaper than the jp import ones. Some of those prices above are more than I paid for the car

I just bot a set of Project Mu SCR's for my GTR. The front rotors were just under $700 delivered from Perfect Run. Shipping rotors from Japan is not cheap. Not on yet so I can't tell you much about how well they work.

A lot of people run DBA 4000's. UAS has them for a bit under $500 for a pair. I know several people who recommended them but have also run across a few who have had them crack after track use.

For starters it is risky and dangerous :( to machine the diameter of a disc down just to save a couple of dollars not to mention no warranty if they explode which i have seen happen.Has the rotor been cast for this to happen and to take the risk.

R34 GT rotors are 296mm front

R34GTT rotors are 310mm front

R34 GT-R rotors are 324mm front

DBA rotors are available for the Skyline range including the R34 GTT 310mm where as RDA do not do this particular disc.You can buy std 4000's rotors instead of there slotted if you want.

it was done by a very reputable brake buisness and they wouldn't have done it if they thought it was in any way dangerous. They did it so they carry any warranty issues, and it wasn't to save a couple of dollars it was to save a lot of money.

Each to there own but 6mm is alot to machine a rotor down by and yes i am in the industry.

If anyone wants the correct rotor DBA do the 310mm rotor in the DBA 4000 series.

    • So, before putting them in I need to understand the stock ride height. This is how I measured it: First, check the diameter of the wheel's centre cap, it was 52mm. Then put a piece of masking tape approximately across the centre and measure 27mm (half) from at least 3 sides to get a reasonable idea of the centre of the wheel cap. Mark that with a horizontal line as one measuring point. Then, directly above the wheel on the guard, put another piece of masking tape in approximately the centre. Use a string line to find out the point on the guard above the centre of the wheel cap and mark that. Then it is simple, just a tape measure to check the distance from centre of the wheel to the centre of the guard. Final results where  LF: 381mm RF: 379mm LR: 401mm RR: 400mm Pretty even considering they are 120,000klm old factory springs, lets call that 380 front and 400 rear.
    • So....knowing that I have a problem with power steering temps on track and another Wakefield day booked in next Friday, I've done the obvious thing They are very reasonably priced at $1650, considering they are a big monotube shock, double height adjustable (don't have to change pre-load to change ride height), one way adjustable damping and standard sized and customisable springs if you want something other than what comes with them. They come with 9kg/mm front and 4.5kg/mm front and I went with that as a starting point because I'll add adjustable sway bars too https://justjap.com/products/bc-racing-coilover-kit-ds-ds-infiniti-q50-v37-14-current#description Unfortunately they didn't come with rear strut tops so I've re-used the factory ones which was a bit of a pain. Also, the adjuster for the rear shock will be an absolute nightmare to get at, and while there are extensions in the kit I can't see any way you can actually attach or use them
    • I also had 2 bulbs blow at once, years ago in the stagea. made for a fun drive home. The issue was the voltage regulator had failed in the alternator and it was giving 15+ volts. Really, I was lucky all that was fried were the headlight bulbs. So, I'd suggest you check the voltage across your battery terminals with the car running and warmed up. Yes, you will need a multimeter to do so, sorry.
    • Good work to think to check that, and thanks for coming back to post up the outcome.
    • Given it happened suddenly, and when you come on boost, I'd check all your inlet - hose clamps in place and no split rubber or silicone hoses. Even the hard to get to ones near the intercooler. It's possible air that went past the air flow meter is being dumped out a big hole.
