Hi All,

Does anyone know where I can find brake pads for a V35 and what pads (part no.) I will need in Sydney? I previously put on EBC greenstuff DP21671 for the front, they were crap. Been searching for days for another brand can't find anything. Any ideas?

I'm running Ferodo Thermoquiet pads in the front and Ferodo DS3000 at the rear. I just told my local mechanic to order pads for the Z33 - just slotted right in. They work really well and complement my slotted rotors brilliantly (previously used Bendix and my slotties ripped them apart in no time, the Ferodos seem to be lasting longer).

So +1 to Ferodo. If you're doing regular track work and aren't looking at buying bigger rotors/calipers - go for Project Mu brake pads:

You can even select 'Nissan Skyline V35' under the model of car.

I tired out QFM pads, I got the HPX coz I use the car mainly for daily driving.

They were cheap as, they work great and the biggest difference is there is hardly any brake dust - where the wheels would be dirty 3 or 4 days after washing, the new pads wont get the wheels as dirty as that until about 3 weeks.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
