time to spend some big bucks on a new brake setup Chad......you'd be surprised how quick you'll move under the 1:20's.

You've clearly got enough power for Mallalla....bit more grip wouldn't go astray either

With all the money i've been spending on the Cefiro lately big brakes for the Skyline just isn't an option anytime in the near future. I dont want to do a half ass'd upgrade. I want to go big but brakes are just so expensive :D

luckily rear gtr calipers arnt expensive chad!! nice videos mate

Ive ordered a front 13" brake kit, includes braided line, pads, bracket adapter, 12.75" discs, and wilwood 4-pot calipers

was $1070USD delivered, best price brake upgrade I could find anywhere. to suit 90-96 300xz so will bolt onto r32 front end no worries (well without too many anyway!)

Next best is 14" $1700 4-pot ap racing front calipers/rotors, and found a full 14" rotomax upgrade set for $2500 front and rear, looks awesome

But for a budget, I feel what Ive paid for should be ok

This is only part 1, haven't had time to upload part 2 yet.

finally watched the video... thanks for the great footage of my non-Skyline. helps to confirm that some bodywork is rubbing against my tire at Turn 1 - you can hear it at 7:24 (Bit Sus got a bit loose behind me!) and see it at 8:21 on the vid. made me slow down before taking Turn 1 due to the sound it made inside the cabin when it bounced! will have a good look underneath this weekend - may not be able to use those rims for track work if the front offsets are too wide :)

kim that supra sounded awesome man......
Sure did! It's got a whole bunch more of goodies going on too! :D

thanks guys, it was good to have the opportunity to test it for the first time that day - sort of a maiden voyage i guess!

i'll get a few more kms on the clock then sort out fuel + tuning for some decent power. i look forward to the next trackday when i can really drive it hard to knock a few more seconds off my 1:23.1 PB (old turbos, small brakes)

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Stagea identification?

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
