GB 18 submitted.. all according to plan...

From the last time I spoke to RDA it's about 9 weeks from the week of 2nd of August...

So let's see... that would be another 4-5 weeks from now...

Hi, orders submitted so hopefully they will all arrive by mid next week the latest (if you all didn't miss a delivery due to not being home, etc).

Break squeal can also be caused by pads, not only rotors, but things get worse when rotor or pads are badly worn, so see how you go...

Hi

Dont know if this is still going, i jsut read the first post and the last one.

Can you please give me prices via PM on..

1. R32 GTS-t/Z32 300ZXTT: F=909S 280mm RRP $170, R=908S 297mm RRP $190 (Front can be used for S15 Silvias)

3. R33 GTS-t/R34 GT non turbo: F=7693S 296mm RRP $305, R=908S 297mm RRP $190

7. R32 GTS-t/Z32 300ZXTT: F=909G 280mm RRP $305, R=908G 297mm RRP $285 (Front can be used for S15 Silvias)

9. R33 GTS-t/R34 GT non turbo: F=7693G 296mm RRP $465, R=908G 297mm RRP $285

All for the FRONT rotors only please..

Also would it be ok to order blanks or only come predrilled?

Just sussing out which brake setup to use.. thank you.

Break squeal can also be caused by pads, not only rotors, but things get worse when rotor or pads are badly worn, so see how you go...

My current rotors have sort of got circular lines running around them.. they feel bumpy when running my finger up and down. The front break pads are new Lucas's, they were put on during the RWC before I bought the car - so it may well be the pads.

I will be replacing the pads if the problem does not go away after installing the rotors.

Sounds like both rotors and pad problem. If your rotor is healthy, you can have it machined nicely and flat surface.

I had a problem with the old std rotors (93 gtst) which caused steering vibration and squeal, which was fixed by machining the rotors and putting new pads in.

I probably could of got them machined, but figured I may as well just upgrade as I was going to eventually anyway. I'm not getting any vibration (not yet anyway), only squealing.

Why do you say pad problem as well? Brake pads are less than 2 weeks old? Time will tell I guess! I'll invest in some anti-squeal stuff before replacing pads, see how that goes.

I didn't know the condition of pads you have right now... maybe the pad shim is worn out, or when an old pad shim is being reused it may caused all sort of noises, I was told so, as the shim is to ensure pads sits flatly against the rotor and absorb any noises or vibration.

But give your rotors a machining and see how it goes... I had slight groove (not bad) on the rear one and that one was the one I had squeal on, so could be the rotors after all.

I'll check the part number list, if you can confirm that the diameter the same with 350Z front & rear then they should be ok.

Remember that the 350Z has the track version with bigger rotors and brakes (I believe) so this may be the same with V35 Premium coupe with bigger brakes too...

GB19 is going on now, got 1-2 orders so far...

the v35 had a few iterations

the 03-04 coupe had normal spec and a "track" spec which was not related to the premium package. the "track" spec was offered on manual models as an upgrade and included the brembe package. the rest of the entire range had the same normal-spec package

the 05+ coupe no longer offered brembo but had a larger brake setup

so it would be the 03-04 coupe "non-brembo" setup which is what would work

i believe the equivalent in the DBA brand is:

4000 series

front part# DBA 4954 (296mm x 24mm)

rear part# DBA 4574 (292mm x 16mm)

according to the DBA website, the part number is the same for the skyline and 350z standard/touring model 2003-2005

i'm not sure how to find out if its the same with the RDA range so i was hoping you could help :D

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
