Hi,

Just wanted to get some info from you guys about the DBA "Slotted" 5000 Discs... are they any good? Ie - known for cracking/weak? Any bad experiences with them?

I ask this because I am considering getting them for my new front discs for my R34 GT-R.

Also, how much do they go for? Is Autobarn the best place to get them? Or Repco???

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again.

There was a thread a while back about DBA4000s not being up to track work, but IIRC there were no such problems with the 5000s. The problem with the 4000s appears to be a design flaw with the slotting, and cracking common on the radial slot at the edge of the rotor. For the 5000s the "slotted" design shown HERE appears sensible. Avoid the cross-drilled "XS".

      Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.

      Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits.

      For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise

      Engine model

      By Bwagz · Posted

      I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
