ahh good stuff Luke thanks....I better get back out there and finish off now.

Doing the rear coilovers tonight as well and the fronts tomorrow hopefully.....will post up pics later.

EDIT: Just looked at your pic Luke, that looks more like an anti-squeal shim that goes across the back of the pad......is that what you were referring to or were you talking about the small tang on the bottom corner of the pad?

the little small metal thing that hangs out bellow the caliper is what im trying to show.

Was that all you need?

Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

did anyone else turn the aus top gear off before it finished?

i thought it sucked and the people they got to host the show were crap :D

i actually didn't mind it the track they used and camera angles were crap but on the whole the show wasn't to bad of a rip

I was looking for one for ages. never found a clean enough example for sale.

I ought to stop browsing carsales it keeps tempting me to sell up, but the thought of selling up is too heartbreaking! lol

The tab is just the wear indicator. As 4 piston calipers should wear evenly (equal pressure on both sides and no sliding pins that lock up) it doesn't really matter where it goes.

It's the thing that squeals so you know that your pads are close to worn out before they actually are and you have metal to metal contact

the little small metal thing that hangs out bellow the caliper is what im trying to show.

Yeah all good now, thanks boys.

I want 350kw :D

Well Chad, you better hurry up and find someone to do a turbo upgrade for both of us if you want that sort of power :D

Hmm ...

Collected from importers in Sydney ... had 32,000kms on the clock then ... drove it back to Adelaide!

Drove it to Wagga Wagga and Canberra and back to Adelaide a month or so ago.

Driven to work every day and cruises on weekends.

Driving it this Thursday to the Phillip Island MotoGP for the weekend.

I'm racking up the mileage ... how about you? :P

      ZF 6HP26 to RB30 block

      By ELVIS · Posted

      Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS

      Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.

      ZF 6HP26 to RB30 block

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.

      R34 GT-T cycling ABS pump

      There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
