line are different

same as on s13

need to pull the olive out of the calipers if your gonna use the na lines

almost 100% on this but never worked on a na so chime in other dudes

best option would be to use turbo lines though

knew something was different

cheer bud i will change them over and it should be fine

i will test it out tomorrow hopefully all goes well :)

turbo line should have a little metal line at the end of them that goes into the caliper

with out it you'll have pull the olive out of the caliper and use your na lines

trying doing a google search on silvia 4 pot brake upgrade using stock lines

it will make you feel better about doing it

yes everything your saying now makes sense

i checked it and its is a banjo bolt

i actually remember it had a piece of metal with a simple fitment on the turbo brake when i got it

so what does removing the olive require?

cheers guys appreciate all the help :)

I used a self tapping screw

screw it into the olive tight then pull it and the olive out with plyers

i ended up doing this today and got them out

all went well not leaking

butt the brakes feel shit now and are very soft

ive been pumping it for a while now and its still doing nothing

ive filled up the brake fluid etc.

might be worth checking if the NA brake lines have different connectors to turbo brakes, i doubt it, but it is a possibility.

also s1 and s2 R33 brakes may be different

How can you distinguish a series 1 and series 2, R33.

Mine is a 1996 and i think there was a change in that year but don't know what the difference is. I have no rear wiper.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
