If you want a 'brake kit' just because it is squealing, don't bother. Rectify the issue of it squealing. Could be shims missing on back of pad, dust,foreign objects, pad compound, low pads etc

The people who 'fix brakes' and say it is common are people who can't be f**ked looking at your car. I have looked at a few with squealing issue but it is by no means common or normal.

Take it elsewhere.

If your looking for better performance from your brakes let us know and people will be able to recommend brakes that may suit you.

So in other words you just need new rotors and pads?

A set of good RDA or DBA rotors and some decent brake pads should set you back around $1000-$1500.

i have already put new pads and i still have the same issue, thats the problem....

when you replace your pads do you have your rotors machined? this could be causing the squealing. are your guide pins lubed?

if you've tried this stuff, and want new pads and rotors just for street driving grab some dba rotors, bendix gct pads, a can of that 'disk brake quiet' stuff that you spray on the back of your pads and lube your guide pins.

should solve it

Specialised Brake & Clutch in Penrith are excellent, they deal with performance cars & brake upgrades every day.

They are straight shooters, I have never had anything but excellent service from them. Don't have their number on me, but yellow pages will :thumbsup:

Good luck.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
