Just went and had a look at them again, they are from a 32. Rotors are 330 and measured 31mm thick slotted, come with brackets and near new pads with about 15mm of pad on them and braided lines for $2500.

Oh, and they come with a seal kit.

How much bigger/better are F50s compared to 33R Brembos?

piston size there isnt much in it, f50's are 44/40, where gtr's are 44/38 i believe... f40's are the same iirc, 44/38.

funnily enough, the pistons in evo brembos are bigger again, 46/40, but theyre harder to adapt.

the biggest benefit with the f40/50 calipers is the size rotor they can take. bigger rotor = better heat sink.

Brakes do my head in. I know nothing.

In even more confusing news! I want to paint my engine covers but have no idea what colour to do them in!

brakes themselves are simple once you wrap your head around the physics involved.

id go bright f**king pink. but thats me.

34R brembo's arnt that good on the track I must admit.

ha. they'd be more than adequate on my car.

anyone know how much itll cost to have some wheel centres powder coated? im gonna do something with my wheels to pass the time.

and dale, i see you lurking, how many cartons to get a diff reshimmed? mines feeling a little loose, could use a tighten up.

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
