so can i get factory pads n rotors from nissan?

If they are the same as my RS4T then:

Front rotors: DBA 4909SR and DBA4909SL (left and right) ...no longer certain about numbers for rears. BUT check prices and dimensions (esp offset on rears) before you buy.

I think they are the same as S14 200SX (if they are more common in Australia)

But double check... thre has been much confusion

A guy on ebay sells pads for $195 delivered. His listing is finished but I've seen it a few times. His nick is "agoodvib" and the link to his completed listing is http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NISSAN-STAGEA-WGC34...1QQcmdZViewItem

hope that helps.

S2's a a bit different but how much did they charge you by the way? All 4 corners?

ABS brake services city branch (in adelaide) got me a set of pads in for the front of my 97 s1 stagea within a couple of hours. And they are Lucas Premium pads so they are not to bad....

ok i found the genuine pads for bout $200 but guy at sprint said he could do lucas for $100 set.

the dba 4909sr is looking promising. nissan said the 4 must stand for 4000 series? 909 is the rotor and sr stans for sloted rotor, but hes unsure if its the right one.

i gave the number to sprint he said that sounds bout right and he could get them but for twice the price as i could. and that was from qweensland friction manufactures. can anyone else add to this to confirm these rotors fitting cause i wont be able to return them.

by the way i would take them off and have them matched up but its the only car i got roadworthy at the moment.

These are for front only. S = slotted l=left r=right a= heat treated (optional, more expensive but better). I believe these are made in Australia so you may be able to track down the manufacturer or else try some other auto parts places (not Nissan).

p.s. If you are on a budget (for now) and not intending to hammer the brakes you could see if the rotors could be machined.

Lucas pads FTW!!!!

They are pre-baked so the break in period is bugger all compared to other pads. Not too dusty either IMO.

A member here in WA gets his brake pads rebonded for about $60 per set so maybe PM chuckie for future reference.

Shoulda checked the brake sticky dude, we just covered S2 stagea rotors. The front rotor is 49mm offset not 54 like silvia/skyline.

The only rotors i could find that would fit are genuine nissan or imported from japan specifically for S2 stageas.

DBA dont make a rotor that fits.

I fitted dixcel slotted rotors and wedsport sc pads.
