hey guys

Did search in the NA section but couldn't find any info on this. At the moment The standard brakes on my car are terrible and am just wondering what brake upgrades people have done and still kept the 4X114.3 stud pattern? ie s13 turbo brakes, r33 gtst brakes.

cheers guys

if you have a gts you should have 257mm rotors

the gts25 got 280mm x 22mm rotors which is the same as the s13 sr20det or n16 pulsar. This uses the same caliper you have, so all you need is the caliper bracket and rotor. This is a really cheap upgrade and works well with some good pads. Good thing is the rotors are dirty cheap because they are common.

Next up is r33 gts25 (non turbo). These are 280x26mm rotors, still 4 stud. They are a 2 piston caliper. The same as a u13 bluebird turbo or w10/w11 avenir. These rotors are rare and cost lots.

After this you may as well got 5 stud.

I know because i've done all of those to my car

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
