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 ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
