Almost a complete package,

Rotors are brand new: 375mm x 35mm fronts.

343mm x 32mm Rear.

Alcon Monobloc rear racing caliper: Body size is, 195mm wide by 255mm long. (the 6 piston is 200.5mm x 300mm)

No catch, if anyone has issues with my low post count and no trading history your welcome to review my user on supraforums, i am a well established user on there and antilag. Package was for my supra but ive changed direction, this is advertised on all other forums so i imagine it wont be around for long, stuff like this at this price never usually reaches the forums.

What car/team are the fronts coming from??

I've been looking for a set recently and none of the guys I deal with have anything decent.....

Every supercar Alcon Ive seen has had a different bridge and pad retainer Inc the calipers I pulled of an ex GRM chassis just this afternoon Those look alot like ex Indy/champ car calipers?

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/404689-massive-4-piston-monobloc-race-calipers/page__fromsearch__1

Aren't they "prototype" lemans calipers?

Stickers peeling up seem to indicate they are the same calipers advertised before....

Well if you read the title you may notice the word "part package" and as for the fronts, you obviously dont know the right people, you do realise that they are getting rid of alcon as the supplier because ap racing won the bid.

As for the caliper being a Daytona prototype, yes its from a 2010 riley daytona prototype, much better caliper than the rear that they use in the V8's similar design, pistons are slightly larger and so is the body size, the v8 alcon has stainless steel pistons and a solid bridge.

I dont just live in the world of V8 supercars, i have engineers in lemans teams over in the US and Germany.

The reason i am including the v8 caliper in as a kit because its a good match with the rear that is in the kit, i can get any other 6 piston caliper.

Go worry about other stuff if you not interested, but thanks for the free bump.

I wast aware GRM, techno, 888 and pmm were the wrong people to talk too.

I was actually interested in them and my question about where the fronts were coming from was serious. due to the component change over I know alot of places selling off rubbish that's been tarted up over the years.

"Interested" You sound like the biggest time waster of them all, as for knowing all those teams if you where in the "know" then why dont you have a kit already seeings as you get 1st hand on every caliper there, and as for flogged out calipers, here's one going atm, so much for seasoned old tarted up stuff.

Brand new not even been used at a fraction of the price.

I think you are barking up the wrong tree, risking probably has a list of customers wanting any good used stuff that he can get his hands on, which explains why he is the only person on here that was interested

I have actualy had quite a few enquires and risking wasn't one, im not fussed if someone wants it they will buy it. maybe viewers are waiting for that "price drop" post, i can asure that wont happen, i would rather keep it than sell for less.

Several customers, I have a prioritized list infact of people asking for parts.

Fasttrack are looking for taxi calipers and rotors for some new cars they are building. I had these

in mind for them.

Marshal (one of the owners) would tell me to buy every caliper I possibly can that's serviceable.

I have a car from every stable mentioned other than tekno so why wouldn't I be incontact with

said places regularly....

If your offering those Alcon calipers pictured new, and rotors like you advertised I'll take everything you have and I'll update some of the cars from AP's to these.

No I didn't.

I dont get alot of demand for ex Indy stuff and one of my suppliers came through with a heap of good AP & Alcon touring car gear so I bought all that up instead.

    • Had I known the diff between R32 and R33 suspension I would have R33 suspension. That ship has sailed so I'm doing my best to replicate a drop spindle without spending $4k on a Billet one.
    • OEM suspension starts to bind as soon as the car gets away from stock height. I locked in the caster and camber before cutting off the kingpin. I then let the upright down in a natural (unbound) state before re-attaching it. Now it moves freely in bump and droop relative to the new ride height. My plan is to add GKTech arms before the car is finished so I can dial camber and caster further. It will be fine. This isn't rocket science. Caster looks good, camber is good, upper arm doesn't cause crazy gain and it is now closer to the stock angle and bump steer checks out. Send it.
    • Pay careful attention to the kinematics of that upper arm. The bloody things don't work properly even on a normal stock height R32. Nissan really screwed the pooch on that one. The fixes have included changing the hole locations on the bracket to change the angle of the inner pivot (which was fairly successful but usually makes it impossible to install or remove the arm without unbolting the bracket from the tower, which sucks) and various swivelling upper arm designs. ALL the swivelling upper arm designs that look like a capital I (with serifs) suck. All of them. Some of them are in fact terribly unsafe. Even the best one of them (the old UAS design) shat itself in short order on my car. The only upper arm that works as advertised and is pretty safe is the GKTech one. But it is high maintenance on a street car. I'm guessing that a 600HP car as (stupidly, IMO) low as you are going is not going to be a regular driver. So the maintenance issues on suspension parts are probably not going to be a problem. But you really must make sure that however your fairly drastically modded suspension ends up, that the upper arms swing through an arc that wants to keep the inner and outer bolts parallel. If the outer end travels through an arc that makes that end's bolt want to skew away from parallel with the inner bolt, you will build up enormous binding and compressing forces in the bushes, chew them out and hate life. The suspension compliance can actually be dominated by the bush binding, not the spring rate! It may be the case that even something like the GKTech arm won't work if your suspension kinematics become too weird, courtesy of all the cut and shut going on. Although you at least say there's no binding now, so maybe you're OK. Seeing as you're in the build phase, you could consider using R33/4 type upper arms (either that actual arm, OEM or aftermarket) or any similar wishbone designed to suit your available space, so alleviate the silliness of the R32 design. Then you can locate your inner pivots to provide the correct kinematics (camber gain on compression, etc).
    • The frontend wouldn't go low enough because the coilover was max low and the upper control arm would collapse into itself and potentially bottom out in the strut tower. I made a brace and cut off the kingpin and then moved the upright down 1.25" and welded. i still have to finish but this gives an idea. Now I can have a normal 3.25" of shock travel and things aren't binding. I'm also dropping the lower arm and tie rod 1.25".
    • Motor and body mockup. Wheel fitment and ride height not set. Last pic shows front ride height after modifying the front uprights to make a 1.25" drop spindle.
