What are the brake pads like pad vs rotor wear?

The high performance pads (500 degree) are equivelent performance-wise to Bendix Ultimates, but should last roughly twice as long. The high performance pads also produce about 90% less dust then the Bendix Ultimates.

The track day pads (750 degree) can handle approximately 100 more degrees than the EBC greens. They will also last roughly twice as long as the EBC greens and have about half the wear and dust.

Obviously all these figures depend on your driving style, but these are a rough estimate.

If anyone has anymore questions, please ask.

Braided brake Lines --- is the group buy still going?

When is the last day?

Also how long does it take for delivery?

I have track day end of nov (this month) .. so i would need it soon

Also is this a bolt on type job?

Anything else required to fit ?

Hi siddr20,

I'm taking orders for this GB as we speak. GB closes at the end of this month.

Hoses are generally being shipped the day after payment is received.

These are a direct replacement for your old hoses, so just take off the old ones and put the new ones straight on.

All you'll need to do is bleed the brakes slightly once you put the new hoses on. Fairly easy to do.

If you have anymore questions, just ask.

Cheers

Hi Mark,

i see now you have the Stagea fronts for the braided brake lines. Are they the same as the R33Gtr? how about the rears? Is the stagea for a RS4s or 260rs? Will they be the same? Let me know.

Do you have anything for the the pads? Its equilvalent to the R33GTR brembos.

Hi stasis,

From memory, from what BrakeWest said, the hoses are similar to the 33 GTR. The rear hoses are a pain in the a$$, that's why BW aren't doing them. It involved changing changing some fittings on your car from imperial to metric and was more trouble then its worth. This was all for a 260RS, not sure about the RS4.

For pads, BW don't have anything available for Brembo systems unfortunately. I was using the K750's with my standard GTR brakes, but since i put Brembo's on the car, I've had to settle for EBC's.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
