just go try repco, auto one, supercheap, etc.

im pretty sure the 32 gtr's are the same as a 33 gts-t, and i picked up mine from repco.

alternatively they can get them within the next week, got some ordered for kylie's stagea and recived them within a week (and they are weird/rare pads!)

dont bother with stock pads (or bendix, green stuff etc), if you are after decent performance when being hard driven - cos they are garbage IMO, more designed for someone who wants to think they got great pads but dont know better, they are also dusty as hell and fade quite easily once you start driving hard.

VisonR have a couple of different types of Endless pads in stock, around $240 (from memory) a set for SS-S, which will make you grin every time you touch the brakes. Excellent low dust street-light track work pad with great initial bite, 0-500deg C, aren't noisey when cold and wont destroy your rotors.

I agree with bendix but apart from teh fact the green stuf dissappears fast i thought they did well.

Think the pads u want for a 33t are "race brakes rb26's" yer i know 26 is just a coincidence. Perth brake parts are teh place for them.9451 9455

Who in Perth carries stock of brake pads for r32 gtr's ?

anybody know who coz looking at a few local websites they never specify what models they have the pads for

Hi Gary

The good news is that the pads for the non-Brembo GT-Rs are the same as those fitted to the S15 amnd many models of the WRX. Very easy to source.

If you want a set of excellent pads I have a set of "Pagid Blues" that I sourced from Perth Brake parts a while back. These are the "ducks nuts" and have done less than a 1,000 kms. Will really transform your braking!

Drop me a PM if you are interested.

i have organized a set of

SSS - Endless Brake Pads Type SSS (Front set)

Best Match Tyre: Radial tyre

Best Use: Street/Winding/Light Track

Material: Non Asbestos

Colour: Navy Blue

Co-Efficiency: 0.35~0.43

Rotor Temp: 0~500°C

they will do for now from vision R

That is a really low friction coefficient. You may need to get to the gym to work on your leg muscles. What are you using at the back?

Not sure what sort of road/track bias you are after but the Ferodo DS2500 takes a lot of beating. Friction coefficient is approx 0.5....

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
