Hi guys,just looking at updating my full brake system and wanted a few opinions.Its an R32 gtr,big power,already has old G4s on the front and original rear brakes(that have been reconditioned)>Im running standard 18inch R34 wheels and was thinking of going a new set of D2s all round.!st question,what do you guys think of these brakes?Will 380mm discs fit,ive measured,looks close,but maybe?If not will run 356mm.Now ive read its better to run the same size disc on the rear as the pad is smaller and helps even out the 70/30 brake bias,do yous agree???Or just put 330mm on the rear,all said they seem like a good product for the price.Now im in Wollongong,so wheres the best place to source these goodies,any help would be appeciated,cheers

Just stick with the 356mm D2's on the fron and if you really need them grab a set of 330's for the rear.

If you do a bit of searching on here you'll find plenty of great reviews on them.

I'm pretty sure Import Monster still sell them so give them a try.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
