Recommended Posts

As part of SAU's 10th B'Day - and exclusive Big Brake Group Buy has been organised :)

D2 kits are essentially the same as the K-Sport kits. I ran a D2 Racing kit on my very own R33 GTR that saw a number of track days and hill runs over 12 months. The kit never missed a beat and i highly recommend it for performance on a budget.


Kits include:
Calipers / Discs / Mounting Brackets to suit your model / ADR Approved Lines / D2 Racing "Street" Pad


Standard Caliper Colour Options:
Anodized Black
Painted: Black / Purple / Yellow / Red
(please specify)

Additional non-standard colours can be done for $150



Brake Pad Options:
D2 Racing - Street Pad
or
D2 Racing - Race Pace - Costs an extra $220 (RRP $250)
(please specify)



Price:
Front 330mm - $1700

Front 356mm - $1800

Front 380mm - $2500

Rear 330mm - $1800 (includes factory handbrake compatibility kit, normally $250 extra)

Above pricing includes ADR Approved Brake Lines (normally around $150 / $250 ($250 for front & rear).

Do some research if you like, but i assure you the price is significantly cheaper than you'll find from any retailer in Australia OR Overseas and includes ADR approved lines to boot for even better value - don't wait to make a decision, it's well over 25% off after having a look around myself :)

Especially you GTR owners, you can easily sell off your Brembo Rotor/Caliper/Pads for $1,200 - $1,400 - so the upgrade is next to nothing for a 356mm kit and a massive hike in braking performance :thumbsup:

I recently purchased a r32 Gtr, brakes are shocking! This car Won't be my daily largely track orientated, would these brakes be suited? Or should I wait for some used AP's? I'm in the process of buying new wheels, I was looking at 17 or 18 x 9.5 + 15 enkei rpfs would these clear the calipers ??? Very interested thank you

Yes they would be well suited for you and give great performance. Plenty of guys with GTR's around the country using them, I had them on my own GTR that was street/track setup. I know plenty of others who've done many track days on them in dedicated track cars.

As per the first post - 17" wheels for 330mm / 18" wheels for 356mm.

They will clear no problems.

i've done some research looks pretty awesome !, only other questions I have, has the brakes lines been changed since 2008? I noticed alot of people stating that they were the weak link in the package, also what are the "race pace" pads, is that their brand? i couldn't find them.

Thank you

Hi mate.

The brake lines are ADR approved, they are not the ones you normally get with the kits. So they are 100% tested and made to meet the Australian laws and included in the price to offer even better value.

The race pad is just an uprated spec, and costs $150 extra as per the first post.

Definitely interested, if you can get the numbers :).

Also won't have money until at least Feb...

EDIT: Oops, the 356mm probably won't clear until my 17inch rims :(

The 356mm def won't fit underneath 17"s - but the 330mm ones will :)

Just to clarify on the brake lines- the D2 brake kits come in with fairly crap brake lines. In testing these kits, that was the only weak point. We have the new ones made from scratch locally by a brake line specialist who make them to ADR spec and the fittings are stamped with their registration # to demonstrate for RWC/Blue slip purposes that they are ADR compliant lines. Legal and far better than the lines supplied. Every line made is pressure tested to over 3400psi. Under the heaviest braking, they won't see close to a quarter of that on the car!

It normally costs around $120 per line to have them custom made, but because we're getting 10 sets done at a time we've been able to bring this price down far enough that we can include them with the kit as part of the group buy.

Take the 34 down to Import Monster mate, he has a 380mm rotor sitting there on display.

Would be good to answer for everyone perhaps as well :thumbsup:

They would be for my 32 - getting close to needing some brakes - looking like a good option.

Have a loose wheel here will drop past at some point in the next week. I guess if 18" te37's fit over stock r35 brakes it should be pretty close.

Or ye, take a wheel down as the easier option haha :)

Post up once you do, will be interesting as i think it should fit actually

We will get the numbers, i don't doubt that.

Work out the spec etc if you are in (need 330mm for 17s) :thumbsup:

Yeah I think it would be pretty close but the caliper is quite bulky. When you get a chance, come on down and we'll check it out :)

To be honest I think you'd need to be really really smashing the brakes to exceed the capability of the 356mm 8 pistons - it would be more about your pad choice than the actual brake setup.

Ash fair smashed the D2s on his 33, lap after lap after lap and only got fade at the end of the day and after probably going one lap too many - and that was just on the standard street pads that come with the kit. Choose the right pads and I reckon they'll go all day :)

I've actually got a set of the D2 front 356mm in stock to suit a 32 if you want to pop down and have a look at the quality of it.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
