Do you sell the R32 GTR Dog bone brakets on their own for the Nissan Sumitomo calipers?

If so how much, wondering the price diffrence with yours for 343mm to the current ones on the market for a 324mm front conversion?

Sounds like your using a 343mm front rotor from the Harrop upgraded VT to VZ HSV models which are also 32mm thick.

Quite a bit of that rotor wont see pad contact on the inside without bigger calipers.

thanks GTSBoy nice pick up :) i was a bit tired when i posted.

thanks GTRPSI for the interest, the rotors DBA supply me have their own order unique order number, i couldnt tell you if they are used for any other model they wouldnt tell me. im not sure of the other kit you mention, the brakets are only available as part of the full kit.

Hi gtr jet, thanks for your interest, the specs of the rotors are DBA series 4000 "T" slotted, these are hardened and ground they are 343mm dia and 32mm thick, they are arguably the best rotors made in Australia, this is why they were selected.

These DBA rotors are custom made and will only suit the offset of our dog bone brakets. spare rotors are available when needed but you would be doing well wearing these things out. I could give you the order number but you would have to find a DBA distributer and there is a minimum level you would have to order.

One of the reasons we decided to make this kit was becuase my mate bought a cheap imported kit that didnt impress us.......the problems were the supply of spare parts and the quality, we needed to buy rotors and they said we had to buy the entire kit again to get them.

So our thinking was that there was a need for a top of the line kit that was still within peoples budget with replacement parts readily available, and made proudly locally in Australia.

Thanks for the reply mate. The reason I asked is because I'm looking for that sized rotor with an offset to fit my calipers.

Would you mind giving me the dimensions of your rotors and if they fit I'll grab some off you?

no worries im more than happy to help, at the moment however im just selling the kits as a full kit, the chances of these rotors having the correct offset would next to nothing as they were made to suit our dog bone which is unique. sorry i couldnt be more help.

Hi The sherrid, i have had a engineering report done on the kit, and i am working closely with an engineering company that can sign them off, i can pass on their details to you if you like.

thanks for the question

Thank for the support :) we love our track days !!!

As an added incentive im happy to have kits fitted by our licenced MTA approved mechanic in helensburgh, for everyone that contacts and buys through Skylines australia forum :)

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
