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?

Bout as cool as the beat up VL commo I saw yesterday dragging on the ground with VE commo wheels and "SEX SPEC Motor sports" sticker obscuring the whole back window...

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.

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!

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
