.it's brake caliper covers.. made with high temp ABS plastic.. what i have to do is..

- clean my front calipers with the degrease thing

- using the high temp silicon to stick it with front calipers

that's it! I'll try it this weekend if I have time

so, what's ur guys reckon?

Thats got to be the most stupid thing ive seen today!. Wouldn't they restrict cooling? And everytime u change or inspect pads, you will need to re-apply the glue to it. Best just to paint your sumitomos or just buy real brembos.

But its really up to you, its your car..would be interesting to see how they look though.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
