Where can I pick up some good brake pads today for the GTR? Who stocks them? (It has Nissan brakes)

I'm thinking that I don't know what they've put in the GTR...

They say they've replaced all filters/oil etc, but I need to be sure, so I'm off to buy some good oil's/filter and thinking I should replace the pads as well.

Cheers

Ferodo's (spelling saun!!! :( ) are the bomb. i swear by them (the 2500's that is...).

That wasn't spelling... that was dyslexic fingers hehe

Hubby's dyslexic... lays awake at night wondering if there really is a Dog.

i liked my RB74's on the gts-t always pulled me up in plenty of time - racebrakes.com.au. Mention you are on SAU and they used to give you a discount not sure if they still do.

Another vote for the RB74's from me.

I'm not having any luck with finding heavy duty brake pads today :P

I've tried Trojan, Molonglo and Reliance. Reliance suggested I wait and get the Ferodo DS2500's said they would last and last, fantastic for motorsport, a little bit of noise (on the street) but worth it, they suggested around $220/250. Trojan also said the DS2500's at $300.48 for fronts and $270 rears.

I'll just take it steady this weekend anyway. I can't see myself being too bold upfront. I'll take it out on the GTST :(

Thanks for your help guys, always appreciated.

ACT Brakes in mitchell. Check out the EBC Reds (street) / Yellows (Street/Track) they wont eat your rotor and will stop you nice and quick.

Hey TiTAN are you running these on your car ??? i am actually probably going to go with the Red stuff on the front and green on the rear with the fozzie

      Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
