Anyone got a part no Bendix Ultimates for the RB33 GTS25T

I'm sure it's on these forums or the SDU forums but I'm damned if I can find it . Also does anyone know anything about Platignum pads apparantly made here in Aust Thanks Jay

Are you sure..

I thought only the R32 GTS-T Used the same brakes as the 300ZX Z32.

I think the fronts on the R33 are the same as the R32 GTS-T but the rears bendix don't make them.

I remember when Whatsisname had brakes fitted and i'm pretty sure he said that he couldn't get bendix brakes for the rear only EBC.

I Could be wrong but.. :)

I have bendix's PDF of brake listings on my www site..

EDIT:

No i don't i thought i did.. sorry :) I'll have a look but..

To make sure I actually Emailed Bendix and they replied very promptly when i did the brakes on my R32.

Well I've just bought a set of the R32 front and rear ULT pads. The PN's I've given are the ones for the R32 GTR, and they are the only ones that Bendix list. But, if you look at the DBA catalogue, they say that R32 GTR, R32 GTSt/GTS4 and R33 GTSt use the same rear disc (DBA908) and I'd be very surprised if the cal wasn't also the same. I have a pair of the R32 GTSt rear cals with the factory pads in the garage and as far as I can see the Bendix pads are identical.

That said, it still could be they're different [shrug]....

Joel,

I run EBC Greenstuff on the front (P/N - DP21200). I run EBC Street Kevlar on the rear (can't remember the P/N).

EBC don't make a Green' for the rear.

These are excellent pads for street use. Even hard street use is unlikely to see brake temp's much over 450'c-500'c, EBC Greens are rated to 650'c.

Fronts - ~$200-$220

Rears - ~$70-90

Bendix Ultimates are rated to 550'c, so they're just as good for performance street use.

The R32 GT-R uses the same calipers (F&R) as the R33 GTS25t.

    • I'll just leave this with, holy shit, those cars at work are awesome, and this will look wicked!
    • Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...
    • Do you have any before and after photos? That's $200 just for the hydro blasting?
    • It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
