I bought them as i was curious to see if the KTS 6 pots whcih are a Endless knock off are any good. They seem reasonable, well. I am told, as they were delivered to a friend who had a look at them as i am still OS. Told that they look to be on par with the K-Sport gear, are not curved vane rotors. Was going to give them a try, but from what i am hearing i am better of stickign with my original plan of using my 6 pot Alcons :)

Cheap as in, what they cost me which is about what you pay for R33 GTR Brembos :) I think they are the same as what Boxhead runs on his white S14. Not sure they are any better then Nissan Brembos on a 324mm rotor, but they do work out cheaper.

All of the above screams of trying too hard.

Just brake later, turn in harder.

How many rb20 boxes you blown now? :)

I'd only be temped to a good box if it was reeeeel cheap, and i was blowing std boxes left right and centre. As long as I remember Roys anal anaegy i think i'll be right

You need to use the funky chicken dance backwards hand grip like Roy and im sure you will be fine with Boxes

Its all in the reach around. I want a cool kids ghearbox as it will make me feel like a driving god. Who gives a shit abotu how quick you are going. Sure its nice to go quick, but in my eyes my car rocks as it feels like you are going fast, so good enough is close enough to actually going fast. The gearbox will just improve the show...also good practice on how to drive a car with a proper box :)

Look elsewhere, you can get RB20 syncro sets from ~$3400 and dog set for about $5000

oh what, i already ordered 5 sets then and there at the ppg tent :) . I can see why he was so lonly at his tent after hearing his prices

so there are people that make rb20 sets?

Precisely three.

In over 5,000klm of competetive kilometres.

At a few hundred bucks a pop.

I think the sums work out :)

Albins do an RB20 box for about $5.5k

PAR do for $4.6K +gst (about $5K) dunno about Albins, but PAR give you a bunch of options.

Marcus just put a PAR 1st~5th Dog set in the sprinter and im quite amazed, Good value for money.

Thanks mate ill keep them in mind :(

gotta sort out some decent supension and brakes as Im trying to get the car ready for Next years Superlap (see I kept on topic lol)

Aww but who will be my start/finish!!! lol Good stuff Andrew!!

:)

You could buy a 2nd hand hollinger for that much

Pfft if you can find one...

P.s I m looking for if anyone knows where one is! Contact me please :)

the r32 was great fun to drive, i must admit i kept baulking myself with the recent brake issues i have had and the nice big hit at the creek afew weeks ago.

the holinger is superb!! , i borrowed suspension on thursday from beer baron as we didnt have time to revalve and respring the ohlins in the car. ( thanks again mate)

they were much better but with some much grip the sping needed to be nearly doubled. alsoa big thanks to John Pelington for letting us use his shop to rebuild the engine and change it over!

congratulations to all the competitors for some awsome driving and some beautifully presented cars, some of the times are a real credit to the drivers. ( also not many big issues for the speeds etc)

    • Thanks for the suggestion of being on it. As the car has a break in tune, I went and hit 10psi a few times while driving, drove it kind of like a jack ass for ~1.5 hours, did another test, and all 6 cylinders were at/just below 125PSI. I took photos of it this time as I only my memory to remember seeing 150psi. As for the ones that were low, my battery is kind of shot and dies pretty quickly if not charged, so I'm going to assume I just didn't let them build up enough compression or the battery didn't have the power. The 150psi for #4 is definitely odd, but having no photo proof, I'm just going to make note of it. I'll retest it again when the car is cold to see where things are, but everything is insync now so 🤷‍♀️
    • Yep will do. Thanks! I'm keen to do a next update.
    • I've thought about DCT, and I think in pretty much every way sequential wins. You still have a pedal clutch, which means you can make it take off exactly how you want. There's no computer trying to work out if you're about to go up or down a gear. Without looking at the math, I reckon sequential will be a quicker shift. How they're setup, both can only go up or down 1 gear at a time. Did I mention no computer needed, so it can't ruin your day with some weird edge case with the sequential? I've not really ever found an auto box I've ever been 100% happy with even in normal daily duties, and the few DCT vehicles I've driven have the same issue. I would be intrigued to take a crack at reprogramming a DCT and seeing how well I can truly ruin my day for myself...
    • The stealth of it is sick. Custom tow bar I assume?
    • These are also true. I do try to separate myself from the rest of society though. I'm starting to get evil DCT scented dreams though.
