Nice collection, just need a heap of cars to put them on now hahaha

Fark thats a nice collection you've got there!!!!

Those brembos look serious....

Couldn't help my self, picked up a set of brakes my self today...

Will upload pics tomorrow....

Oh nice one! Bring on the pics :D

Found out yesterday that my front are yet again not ready for collection, so those pics will have to wait until they're ready to be collected

Looks tough!

Where from?

Disc specs? They look like V8supercar

Got them off Britek Motorsport who had the calipers advertised on ebay.

They were off Jason Brights V8 supercar, last years car...

The rotors are genuine Alcon 378mm x 36mm front, 343mm x 36mm rear.

Pads are PFC 30mm fronts, Pagids 30mm rears.

Now how about we organise a group buy on the hats and adaptors to suit our cars??? :P

Yeah have seen them, they look awesome :(

Ah Jack, have you looked closely at the configuration of the front Alcons?

No biggie, you will jus tneed to swap around the blee nipples and the fluid bridge, then quick trip to anodisers and you are set.

just roll the car over to bleed :P

mmm, ok, thats why your the brake king!!!!!

Im pretty sure they are mounted in the leading position, not trailing, so shouldn't that be the same as the skyline???

Oh well, will have to get them sorted. I'm assuming they are symmetrical, so each end is identical???

Either way the price I got them for I couldn't resist....

nope, look at the pics. see the caliper with the line still attached? it's the left front. it has the bleed nipple on the left of pic. so when on the car it will be pointing at the ground. no big deal though as troy said you'll need to swap the nipples with the bridge line so the nipples are up the top of the caliper when fitted to the skyline. :P

Faaark, that's too similar to mine!!!

Do you know the owner of the car???

Nah dont know him, just met him.

Was at a private HKS day at Sugo.

When i saw it i made a beeline for it, the body work was flawless. Really nice owner aswel

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
