post-36964-1206935023_thumb.jpg G`day all just a few photo`s of R32GTR with evo calliper`s, cheer`s chuckie,post-36964-1206934910_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1206934808_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1206934284_thumb.jpgpost-36964-1206934184_thumb.jpg

LOL, they are Alcon Mono 6 calipers. I know Alan Heaphy has sold a few kits as a Ralliart option for some late model EVOs. The Ralliart asking oprice is scary, higher then what you can buy the Alcons for

Haha :)

I'm contemplating some 6 pot Alcons and AP's at the moment, as well as a few other options which I can pickup second hand. The Evo brembo option is pretty enticing for the dollars, especially as you can pick up some front calipers for under $700... I'm contemplating the Evo brembo with a 355mm rotor under my 17's, or the Alcons on the same size rotor. I think the Alcons would be overkill, and require a bit of messing around with my master cylinder which is putting me off a bit.

I'm also considering this kit: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wilwood-SL4...sspagenameZWDVW which I've thought about for a while. It has larger pistons than the Evo's, are light, and cheap! Great value in comparison to a lot of others.

What have you got laying about Troy? I like your F40 kit, but I just don't have the dollars to outlay in one hit at the moment with all the other car expenses I've had. Bloody bottomless money pit... :P

Best I can offer is this:

The part number for a project mu rotor for an R33 front is SCRN006. It has a height of 53.8mm

For an Evo the part number is SCRM045 with a height of 44.2mm

So the Evo calliper appears to sit a little further out than the Nissan equivalent. Which may cause a problem.

Hey guys i've been offered a set of Evo 7 Brembos (whole set) for a very reasonable price, to go on my R32 GTR. What do I need to consider before trying to install them? Would they require any sort of modification or adapters to suit it? Is the stud pattern the same? Anything else I need to think about it?

Cheers!

Question: Are Evo 7-9 Brembo's identical to each other?

If they are in fact the same then my questions probably have been answered :D

EDIT: just reread maxspd's post, just the info i'm after cheers!

Anyone know of any good workshops who would be able to fit these brakes and make up the adapters etc.?

I've tried a few places and they've more or less palmed me off, just want a rough estimate of how much they'll be to fit before I buy them. Cheers!

Autosports in Kirrawee. :rolleyes:

Thanks for that mate, they've done it a few times and for a good price as well, everywhere else was more than double of what they're asking. They haven't done the rears before though, would they be a big upgrade over the standard rear calipers?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
