After plenty of messing around with different wheels, rotor sizes etc i have finally settled on my F40 setup so not going to even bother bolting on the F50 to see the back to back difference. I think you will find this is the largest Brembo 4 pot brake package, with the rotors being amazingly light for their size.

So up for grabs are:

- pair of F50 calipers with used pads thrown in (nothing special)

- pair of Brembo 370mm rotors and hats.

DO NOT come with lines or radial mounts as i am keeping them.

Calipers are in your usual chips and marks condition, hats are fine with rotors past their best. Fine for driving around but they are 29-30mm thick so wouldnt recommend you track them.

Located in Melbourne and asking $2800. + Delivery

For an extra $200 I can provide some R34 mounts that are for a 340mm rotor, but can either be used as a template to make mounts for 370mm rotor or billet piece sandwiched between the caliper and mount to get the extra 15mm rotor clearance. If you dowel them i dont see a problem with this approach but suggest you use them to machine new correctly sized mounts

For 4k i will fully refurbish the calipers and provide new slotted rotors and lines but no pads.

I have fitted this calipers in my GTT and can honestly say it is excellent! I had to make up an adapter and hat to suit a 355mm disc and it fills up my 18inch nismo LMGT rim space nicely. Braking performance, distance and force improved by up to 65%! but i have shitty nexen tyres so not using the brake to its full potential. So, whoever who's thinking of getting the calipers, i can honestly say buy it! it's worth every penny! :D

Interest but to date the only thing sold is the R34 brackets.

PMs answered and as of this afternoon free delivery to Sydney is off the cards as i am jumping on a plane tonight and wont be back until the end of the week

For what sized rotor and in what state are you in. They are not difficult. Most performance brake places will be able to make them up for you if you give them your car and the brakes with the rotors you want to run. About two days and no way they will cost you more then $600 for the brackets. Most likely around $350, possibly as low as $250 .... it all depends on how much work is in them which is a result of the rotor and wheel you are running

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
