hang on wasnt it $90?

then why does that link say

"Aww shucks..

I will post a thread about caliper painting in the classifieds section when I get back from melbourne in a weeks time.

The cost for four calipers is $55, and four hubs $15

Silver 'nissan' lettering on calipers (where applicable) $10/pair. (You need existing raised cast lettering for this.. most skylines/200sx have it, some only the front brakes.)"

That doesnt add up to $90? does it?

I don't think any come with jack and a brace.

The night Ska had the accident and there were 20 odd cars hanging around and only two people had them

I had a jack, but nothing to spin it up with :D Had the brace so I could get the tyre off, just couldnt get the car up to get it off :cheers:

Actually I think it'll look much like that, I really want to see what my mags look like when in transit, like do they become "see through" when driving along, that way the calipers will stand out even more :( Rice-A-Roni, BAH you wanna see rice, just you wait and see what I got planned, you guys might not want me on your cruises after you hear my plans :) I'm going the whoa before the go, the car has got enough go for me right now :D

Hi guys, sorry for the late reply I only just got back from Melbourne (they don't have the internet down there you know)

Ska - I can confirm my all of my clients calipers look brilliant while the car is moving (except the ones that get black.. you can't really see them)

10 am Sunday suits me.

Best thing to do is have everyone arrive early, ala production line style. Once wheels are off you guys can play network games while I'm slaving away over hot skylines.

In regards to jacks, I will bring a shiney new trolly jack, two folding jacks and 2 axle stands (plus wheels chocks/paint/buckets/ etc etc etc :nowigetit

We need two jacks or stands for each car, so start raiding your mums excel and your dads commo, they all come with jacks. :D

This should be a good day :P

    • Does this count as a time trial as well? I got all gold in the master super licence (1 lap time trial) and received a McLaren MP4/4 for my trouble.  If anyone else has done this, did you ride the wall right around the first long right hander at Lake Louise snow track to get gold? I couldn't do it any other way... best I could do without riding the was was within 2 tenths of the gold time.
    • I definitely get the low power, sporty car to drive to smash gears but not be doing eleventy million miles an hour! It makes all the normal drives fun!   Rev match tune sounds like the funs! I didn't know the NC had a DBW throttle!   As for me, still have the Skyline, it still has the Barra in it. It's been pushed to the side of the workshop at the moment. Pretty much waiting on me finishing the wiring, and dropping new fuel lines in. Got myself an ACDC Tig end of last year so been teaching myself TIG welding to build a few things for the Skyline. The missus wrote off her GTB liberty at the end of last year, and got it back on salvage rights stupid cheap. It's also still registered, so will mean easier for me to take to the track already done most of the panel damage, just playing "clear the workshop" to make space to pull the motor and box out, fix some oil leaks, replace the clutch, and replace a few minor broken things.  Also got a Lathe at the start of the year, which is adding to the annoyance of no space, which is another reason I'm trying to build things to get more space, to get the Lathe back in a final home for it. It's a BIG lathe, can turn a 355mm diameter, and 1metre between centres... Got it at a steal! So between it and the TIG and old MIG welder, I'll be fabbing some fun little shit up But we've had a lot of shit stuff happening at home, so it's slow going getting things done. But one step at a time!
    • I love Catalunya.  Got a 1:54.632. The AMG is a hoot.
    • I hadn't got that far, my main worry was the connection to the actual calipers themselves. I'm just using new (ish) stock brake lines in the stock setup. I've just had a stud welded to the knuckle that is a little lower than the original stud (so my knuckles have two studs each side) to not have it be stretched so far in previous BBK setups, so the "block" (in the second picture) mounts a little lower for me and I hope I don't need to change anything. I may have even changed the connection to the calipers in the past and have since forgotten I did that. I may not have. Guess how I'm gonna find out. Source: hopium
    • It's more so I'm using the 1x piece line from HEL that goes from the body to the caliper. There's no middle block/mount like the HFM ones or the GKtech ones. There are certain angles/suspension compression where the line actually slightly contacts the ARB. Below of how mine sit (not my photo): How I want it:
