just look up the sections at the top of the main R35 page if you cant get the links going.

Maybe your browser is blocking things

"Sorry, the link that brought you to this page seems to be out of date or broken."

CBF!

dead thread. this thread is dead.

I have been reading too much Dr suess to the kids.

The Slotted rotors and MX72 pads went well at the track the other day. quiet as a mouse too during my daily commute.

keen to try the carbotechs though in the future.

the carbotechs will squeal like a p.ig with OEM, slotted or jhook rotors. However the jhooks do make a "clicky" noise with the jhook sliding/cutting over the pad surface, nothing near as bad as the carbotech squeal. FWIW, i've switched to the MX72's and personally i have found them very kind to rotors, virtually squeal free, cheap, probably 90% the performance of the carbotech xp12's - good for my requirements.

09 GTR and I tried the MX72's but at bathurst last year the front backing plate on the pads delaminated. They just couldnt handle the heat. Maybe it was the track?

I find the carboteks much better anyway than the MX72's.

If you order them yourself from the USA they are cheaper than the MX72's.

I can give you my contact in the US if you want it.

Interesting about the backing plate. I'll have to check mine out. I guess bathurst is anpother kettle of fish. FWIW we can get the mx72's for $699US a set.

Thats a pretty good price. So converts to about $800 Aust delivered?

I can get the Carboteks for about $700 Aust delivered.

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
