An Akebono Big Brake Kit for a V35, V37, 350Z or 370Z - kit includes front & rear Akebono calipers (4 pot / 2 pot), alloy caliper mounting brackets & bolts (required for V35 / 350Z), front & rear slotted stoptech rotors, front & rear stoptech street pads with plenty of life, front & rear EBC Yellowstuff track pads with plenty of life, and front & rear braided brake lines. The calipers are red powder-coated with Nissan badging (they are also available with Infinity badging - but mine are Nissan). New replacement price on these components is around $2500 - (BBK with street pads $2000 delivered, Yellowstuff F&R pads $400, Braided lines $120). I only got to use these brakes at Malalla once, but they were fantastic, allowing much later braking and no fade at all after 6 or more hot laps. Note that the front calipers have had a very small amount of alloy removed to fit under stock 18" rims, and the bare area was then repainted with red high-temp brake pain. These brakes also look fantastic on the car - the rotors are massive. I am after $1500 for the lot, plus shipping.

A pair of hydraulic struts for a 350GT (actually they are 350Z ones but also fit a 350GT) - $50 plus postage. They are about 6 months old, and include all parts needed to install. Installation takes a couple of minutes per side.

A single Whiteline front lower control arm to shock bush (not a pair, just 1 bush to fit 1 side of the car - long story) - part number is W52992 (but only half the kit...) $20 plus postage

Not sure what a GT8 is - if the bonnet hinges are the same as a 350GT coupe they should fit. The struts attach to one of the hinge bolts on the bonnet, and the other end has a ball-headed bolt that replaces one of the front guard mounting bolts on each side. I can get you the extended strut length if you want to measure it on your car.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
