G'DAY CHUCKIE got my pads rebonded thru PBP they had them done thru BENDIX MARFLEET EAST PERTH . They were excellent with finding me my rear pads . And very helpfull with various brake and brake pads that will suit . Talk to bendix marfleet . You may find them very helpfull . Right down to compounds .

OK I DON`T HAVE ANY PROBLEM GETTING BACK PAD`S.I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR FRONT PAD`S FOR A YEAR NOW & ALL ARE OVER PRICED.I HAVE HAD ONE OF PERTH TOP BRAKE SPECIALIST`S LOOKING AS WELL WITH NO LUCK SO.I HAVE KNOW DONE SOME LOOKING IN TO HAVING SOME PAD`S MADE.I HOPE TO HAVE A PRICE WITHIN 2 WEEK`S,THE PAD`S WILL BE BONDED BY BRAKE BOND`S AUSTRALIA,NOW THEY HAVE PERTH & 3 OTHER FACTORIES,QLD,NSW,VIC.I HAVE HAD A SET DONE LAST WEEK WHICH I HAVE POSTED UP.IF THE PAD`S COME IN AT SAY $100 PERSET I WOULD SAY THAT IS A GOOD PRICE.WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IS IF THAT IS THE COST OF THE PAD`S .WHO WOULD WANT A SET ??????. AS I HAVE SAID AT THE START OF THIS THREAD.SO AGAIN IF YOU HAVE A SERIES 2 STAGEA WITH STANDARD FRONT BRAKE SET UP PLEASE TELL ME SO.SO I HAVE SOME SORT OF IDEA IF THIS IS WILL WORK,OR DO YOU ALL WANT TO PAY TOP $$$$ FOR YOUR FRONT PAD`S I JUST THROUGHT THIS WOULD HELP A FEW SERIES 2 OWNER`S OUT AS $250 FOR SET IS TAKEN THE PISS.SO PLEASE LET ME HAVE SOME FEED BACK ON IF YOU WANT A SET.(I DON`T HAVE ANY NOW I WILL HAVE THEM MADE IF I HAVE SOME MUNBER`S TO DO SO. cheer`s chuckie.

I reckon every person with a S2 stagea should buy a set of these from Chuckie.

Imagine the day your pads finally run out - you will staring a $250 min bill plus up to 6 weeks wait for the pads to arrive from Japan. And even then you only have factory pads in the car.

Just grab these at $100, and keep them handy until you need them - because sonner or later you will!

i am in as soon as you know what the price is lemme know and will send ya the coin,

oh and by the way chuckie if you have a look next to the A key on the board there is a little button with caps lock written on it, feel free to press it so you are able to stop shouting hahaaha

cheers oxford

hehehe!

I'm in too, some time soon the fronts will wear out i suppose, and if you guys think it's a good idea, that's good enough for me. How much would postage to Adelaide be? Or can i get something similar done here?

CHUCKIE CHUCKIE CHUCKIE please call bendix marfleet my pads rebonded cost me $135 for medium race use ! And they feel great stop well .

SORRY CORY IAM VERY HAPPY WITH THE PAD`S I HAVE IN.SORRY IAM NOT RACING THE WAGON,I DO GIVE IT A GOOD BOOT FULL MOST DAY`S,THANK`S ANYWAY CORY.CHEER`S CHUCKIE.SORRY ABOUT CAP`S I NEED NEW KEYBROAD IT WILL HAPPEN :D

Has anybody replaced the calipers with S1 front brakes??

Surely this will be a much cheaper, safer and easier option in the long run. Assuming its all possible of course??

Is that what you call a retro-upgrade!!

cheaper, maybe, safer, doubtful, easier.... also doubtful....... but I tell you what, it'll be great for the resale value... while you're at it, why not go the whole hog and take the 'auto out, the engine..... or just go and buy a S1.... that's the cheaper, safer, and easier option.... :laughing-smiley-014:

Seriously I have a set of these re-bonded pads in my car and NO PROBLEMS....all you gotta do is send your worn pads to Chuckie, so that we can keep it going.

Oh and it seems as though some of you haven't realised that this way you don't have to take you car off the road (for more than 1 hour). If you get them done yourself... you'll be looking at t about 4 days without your car.

Actually, I've heard the fronts off a Pintara S/W will fit perfectly.....

But seriously, rebonds sound like the best option I've heard, I just like to look around first to see if there is anything better. If like me, you knew nothing about the brakes yourself, surely you'd do the same???

Chuckie, if my memory serves me right, the cheapest option will be pre-paid 3 kg satchel, it's $9.30. You may want to add an insurance, just a couple of bucks or something like that.

    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
    • Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
    • Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.
    • Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
    • Don't get all high and mighty. Experienced spanner wielders know exactly what effort is required to release an Oof.
