Hi Guys,

just wondering where one would go to purchase a big brake kit? my 350Z is currently in CNJ Motorsports and advised me that my rotors need to be replaced so I thought I'll take the opportunity to upgrade (I'll need it anyway for better stopping power). I'm currently running the touring version stocko brakes (non-brembo)..

Thanks.

I don't intend to track (but you never know) but definitely will be doing a lot "spirited" driving.

Rim sizes are 19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 volk racing wheels.

Budget would be 5k total for the front and rears.

Its a 370Z front end. The brakes are the old CSC, then B-Spec and now ARK designs. The design has not changed, though rather then painting they are now hard anodising the calipers. They still prove to be good setup with quality rotors, a sort of Harrop copy caliper that uses a Porsche Pad. With Harrop, Stoptech and others using Porsche pads there is a good range of compounds available.

You may just get the front and rears for 5k

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
