Comments:

I purchased the F40 kit as the pistons are the same size as the Nissan GTR Brembo (so compatible with std master cylinders etc), and combined with larger rotor is what Brembo recommend for Silvias, 300ZXs and R32/33 GTSt. Also sold as a kit for GTRs provided the rotor used is under under the 343mm range. Brembo kits using the 355mm rotor or bigger typically use the F50 caliper which is dimensionally the same, only uses larger pistons. The F40 advertised uses 44/38mm pistons where the F50 uses 44/40.

The kit includes everything in the pics:

- Calipers

- Used K-Powers MD-R pads, about 10mm pad left, ie plenty of life left (DIXCEL)

- Braided lines

- R32/33 324mm Radial mounts

- R34 340mm radial mounts

- Near new 324mm DBA 4000 rotors, no more then 3,000kms on them. (Not pictured, still on car)

- 340mm alloy hats with new rotor mounting hardware.

The actual 340mm rotor pictured is no longer able to be used due to crack at one of the lugs that is bolted to the hats. I had purcahsed new 340mm rotors, but whilst carrying too many things down the stairs to the underground carpark i dropped them, completely farking brand new rotors (divets and gouges) Rather then buy yet another set i decided to use them with the 324mm rotor i already had on the car, hence the second pair of radial mounts.

The Brembo caliper is a good, sturdy and reliable caliper. Calipers have been photographed as they come off the car, so with a clean they will look better again. (Will clean before posting etc).

Both rotor diameters and calipers cleared by 17 x 8+35 Wed wheels (track rims) though the caliper width means that my street 17s of the same offset do no clear the brakes. Sadly thats the price you get for such a rigid, robust caliper, its physical size Still being alloy its not exactly heavy.

Would clear most 17" wheels with an offset of +30 or less, and some wheels with offsets between +30 and +35.

Selling and have gone back to my std calipers on spacer bracket. No longer tracking car so doesnt make sense having these laying around as they do not clear my street rims. Can negotiate a price depending on what buyer wants

Will post to metro major city for free. And to clarify, when using the 324mm rotor it is a complete bolt on setup for $1760, near new rotors, mounts, lines and pads.

Left over will the the 340mm alloy hats and mounts for an R34

Hey Troy,

how does the car pull up with the standard brakes with the bigger rotors thinking of filling out the 33 gtr wheels on the gts4

Where did you get the adaptors from??

[MADGT4]

[OS30GK]

best price for 340mm with dog bones and calipers etc... Need to fit rear of R34 GTR. I;m not really in a big need for them but you have wanted to get rid of these brakes for a while and i have picked your brain once in the past...

[Roy]

Rear? LOL you are making life hard for yourself? $1800 and they are yours

[OS30GK]

is it really going to be that bad with them on the rear...?

[mini2]

Would you sell just the dogbone for R32/33 and the rotors?

[Roy]

I will sell anything provided it still leaves me with a complete set of something to sell to someone else. Of course its more desirable to sell certain things with certain things

[SLYDA]

intrested... any room to play on price??? just a bit over my budget.

[Roy]

I am a reasonable man, depends on what you are after and whats left over how sellable it is by itself
