sorry for the late reply

i got the brakes running in now

so far done abot 300kms on the weekend

overall impression feels like im driving my evo again when im punching the brakes lol

pretty damn good

pedal still feels abit abit too soft but doesnt feel dodgy though

ill wait and let my bank account recover and spend more money on it later

how much pedal movement before you get them to bite?? more than the stockers i would imagine!

when you buy the new master, make sure the outputs are in the same places as the current one

Sorry to res this thread - but I've got the 350z brembos and want to get all the parts I need before fitting it.

So far, I've got the calipers. I'll get rotors and pads locally.

I've seen the master cylinder on ebay. Does all 350z have the same master cylinder or would brembo equipped z33's have different ones?

Also, brake lines from 350GT needed?

Too bad Danny doesn't come on the forums anymore...PM'ed him but no response >_<

I have Brembo's and my brakes are perfect....you don't need to upgrade the master cylinder.....you will have hassle's fitting the standard wheels though.....you use your brake lines.

P.S. Danny sold his car about 1 to 2 years ago....went to an IS250 or something.pinch.gif

Hmm I'm planning on running 350z Track rims. 18 x 8 +30....would they clear?

Either that or GTR rims...18 x 9 +30....

Hi all,

I've just purchased from the US via ebay a full set of brembos from a 2005 350Z anniversary edition including brake lines. Shipped Monday via UPS. Three boxes in total. One box weighing 45lbs containing the calipers and 4 rotors in 2 separate boxes each one weighing 40lbs. There is a new set of ceramic brake pads included and the existing pads have about 2K on them. According to the seller, all in excellent condition.

I've got Advan T7 18" wheels so should fit with no problems.

Now just got to find the time to install them. What with the sway bars and links from Daleo also. I've got some busy times ahead.

Rosella.

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
