Yes i searched and looked in the DIY section but i found alot of conflicting answers, some post were from like 2005. Anyway i'm the new owner of a 1997 stag and i nee to do the pads all round, so if someone could point me in the right direction with where to buy and some part numbers for front and rear that would be awsome. I'm sure its been asked before so im sorry but oh well, while im here whats with the threads not opening fully on here and having to click each individual post? im probly missing something simple im sure but i couldn't figure it out.

cheers

im in perth mate, where about do you buy them from? it's just my daily so im only after every day pads not need for performance as i dont tow either.

These are good and affordable everyday jap pads available at VisionR in Perth. They have more types to choose from (Brembos etc), depending on your needs.

ACRE SUPER FIGHTER are designed for street use with sports driving in mind, with good response for cold start and its beautiful control ability, it is perfect for most street driving weekend warriors. This pad has its all best balance with minimal brake dust, can be use on normal daily and sports vehicle driving. This is what we call the Super Street model, and it is also Acre's new design based on their street pad technology. Super Fighter brake pads are rated 0-450 deg applicable rotor temperature and friction coefficient of 0.35-0.45μ

can never have enough brakes, RB74 are best by far, 175 per end. mine they modified the mounts of another pad to suit for the fronts.

Endless or Nismo or any other brand I get from www.rhdjapan.com but the Racebrakes RB74 are better when cold, hot, better feel and cheaper, and are aussie based.

We've got Series 1 rears on the shelf in Acre ($65), TRW Lucas ($69) and QFM A1RM ($119). Fronts we've only got in Nisshinbo (Japanese brand similar to Acre $75) or TRW Lucas ($79).

Currently working with QFM to get them made up in both HPX and A1RM for both the front and rear, but this will be 3-4 months away.

For series 2, we're currently taking pre-orders for QFM front pads:

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
