I found a link to the Nismo pads at what looks like a reasonable price: http://www.nismoshop.com/servlet/the-767/NISMO-REAR-BRAKE-PADS/Detail

Fleabay only has fronts and they're dearer :(

My fleabuy of Brembo calipers turned up from the US on the 5th. The rotors that were shipped are lost in transit. Lucky they are insured so I should get back the money. The calipers came with the lines and bolts too. Just need time to install all my goodies :wacko:

Nice find.

Funny how the US Nismo have items that the Japanese Nismo don't carry.

Got my RDA slotted rotors today.

I Ordered them over the phone from GSL Rallysport (in QLD) and they rocked up at my office (in Adelaide) a couple of hours later!

I have never heard of delivery so fast. I have had meals at Restaurants take longer than that! Unbelievable!!!!!

Just waiting for the HPX pads now. Can't wait to get them in

I was thinking of painting my calipers pink. will that be cool?

You Sydney residents are a different breed...

I think I've decided on the Nismo S-Tune pads for now, and upgrade the rotors when they're knackered to slotted ones. I'll probably upgrade calipers at the next pad change. Sounds like that should be fine for my current driving.

When the system works, it works well! ;)

As per my other reply, go buy them from Nissan, they are the correct material grade, and are shouldered to the right length. Most engineers will require it. Either that or drill & tap the caliper legs to M14x 1.25mm (I think) and use the factory Stagea bolts.

Aaron,

Make sure if you don't buy it from Nissan, you buy at least grade 8.8. Also make sure you get the right length.. The requirement is to see some thread coming through the other side and use Loctite (minimum 243)

Stainless bolts don't have the tensile strength, so don't use stainless anywhere near things that hold brake callipers onto struts/A-arms.

Remember, this is a safety system, so please be careful!

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
