Whats people opinions on running brackets for brake calipers to run larger rotors? Got DBA4000 rotors but need to get them machined down to ~290mm. Wonder if its worth running a bracket and just keeping them 330 or whatever they are

yes I am serious.....dude i sent you PM...will fix and respray your bar for 200, good as new..... ;)

for another 200 I will paint correct and detail your whole car...for 600 I will do naughty unspeakable things to it...

Interesting - do you fix scratches and chips too?

are they new?? why not just trade them for 290mm rotors...I know DBA supplier if it helps...

Wrx calipers are actually the sane as s14/15, they're cast iron not alloy

Edit: unless were talking rears.

maybe classics yea. my 02 has 33 sumitomo's. exact same part number for pads. front and black.

but could be iron... f**ked if i know.

take em back.

contact garage 9 mention me, and he will sort you out.

you know Jason?

pretty sure if you mention me, you will get an even bigger discount :P

he supplies my pads and rear rotors.

there are only like under 10 sets of aftermarket wheels in 4x100 that will clear the calipers. though might be more now with all the positive offset wheels on the market now... but usually 15" or smaller becoz honda/MX5. which wont clear them...

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
