So I enquired about Braided brake lines for the G35x (which should fit ours ours) from Cozperformance.

I asked specifically whether the G35x and regular G35 lines will be different due to ATTESSA being present in the G35.

This is his response:

The Stoptech SS Brake lines eliminate the block mounts on the original

lines, thus we don't have to follow them anymore. This allow us to

install the lines on any G35 model.

Anyone want to translate that for me? What's the block mounts?

So he's basically saying that braided lines for the G35 will fit G35x which has ATTESSA.

Hopefully they'll fit our cars then....hmmm

Hmm called Goodridge and Stoptech, both of them say they only have lines for the regular G35, not the AWD version.

Stoptech says due to their location in the West Coast, there's no G35x's around...most of them are in the North East where the weather sucks. Which means no test car to make lines off.

So what do you guys think? Grab a set of G35 lines and pray to see if they fit?

or buy the rear lines and spend $200 to get front ones custom made here?

Ok so just to re cap...

A good set up using standard calipers is?

I know alot was talked about but nothing concreate.

Nice set of slotted DBA rotors and maybe some Nismo Pad's to suit worked great for me before I went the next step!....Pads are a personal preference I liked the Nismo's because I could not get em to fade on the street and they had a great feel.

+1 upgraded slotted rotors are great, and every man and his dog has a different opinion about pads; all the 'brand name' pads will be an upgrade from stock at the end of the day, depends how far you want to push your budget :thumbsup: I went with EBC, they seem to work well for me

Where did you get the Nismos?

I was looking at getting the QFM HPX pads, only need to do the rears for now but would prefer something with low dust.

HPX are low dust, I have been running them front and rear for the past month on stock rotors/calipers.

They're pretty good and don't need warming up like the A1RM's do... but then again, they don't dust up anywhere near them either.

I think that the Nismo's were pretty much dust free.

You should be able to get some pretty cheap from the US (G35 or Z33 non-brembo)

Bit the bullet and bought a set of Stoptech G35 braided lines...

The seller said he's sold them a few times to G35x owners and never had a complaint...

See how we go....or how Scotty goes :nyaanyaa:

Oi, get me a set too... :)

How much was it?

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
