Hey guys

Id like you recommendations for a R34 GTT brake pad and its code or style if you have it as the stockers have been boiled and brake like crap.

ive heard a few suggestions but interested in a set for the front for about $150-$200 best bang for buck really.

Ive read about a few 3000s and 2500 being the most common but looking for other suggestions too.

Have to be high temp not much track work just a little, more so for road use. would prefer to stay away from bendix

Thanks

Nathaniel

For road use why not just get standard nissan pads.. They do the job quite well

i had stock pads in the front on track day and i had no dramas.. This was in the 33, so i would assume no problems for your car either..

Otherwise i have used project mus before and i love it.. If i didnt get the standard pads for cheap, i would have bought another set of project mus

Those are under 200 :)

ps.. what a real life example of standard pads working quite well?? well tonight i was easily doin 120 around a corner up a hill.. truck pulls out around the corner.. i lock up.. in short- i stopped in time.. brakes worked very well :) for standard pads

heheh just my 2cents..

bendix soft compound brake pads are aus std and are the ones recommended.. i have a hard compound pads that squeel now (which is quite normal) but im in the process of getting it fixed. These ones are racing pads and work best when they get heated up...

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
