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".

      Yes, but you will need to rewire all the things that are different. CAS, coils, etc. Yes, but there is no IAT. What? You can use anything you like. It just has to be hooked up so that it will work.     Or are you wanting to just plug and play without having to do any thinking/work?

      It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy.
