My kit arrived today. Looking forward to getting some decent brakes under the Stagea.

Great! I was just waiting to hear back if it had been sent lol >.<

My kit has arrived. Time to start looking at what I want to do with the master cylinder arrangement, and the rear brakes.

Might look closely at a twin MC with balance bar and upgrade the whole system.

Hey so for the uninitiated (or the unintelligent) is this upgrade to the BMC required? I have an R32 GT-R if that matters. Cheers

I believe the R32 GTR already has a BM57 BMC, which is what is recommended for the kit. I will confirm and let you know if that is not the case.

Also, is this upgrade likely to impact RWC?

Unsure how strict Vic is with RWc's. Sorry I don't have any info, might be best investigating with someone in your state :)

Not the case, V spec may be different

Hmm, apologies, I was under the impression all GTR R32/33/34 had the BM57 BMC.

Can you confirm what it does have Joe? :D

is this group buy still going on?????

No it finished some time ago.

There will be an upcoming group buy for the rear kit however, I will chat with the guys and see if the front kit can be incorporated in to the same group buy :)

Keen for a GB on the rear brake adaptors. Bought their front kit and it works wonders!!

Should be happening soon, I believe they are just finalising a few things with the kit, it will be on display at WTAC though, so if not before it should be very close. I have made a list of people who have expressed an interest and will message everyone once the group buy is up :)

Could you let me know if your doing another group buy as I will need the front adapter brackets for the brembos on the front of my r32 Gtr and possibly the rears to pls

Perhaps send a PM to timmy_89 if you haven't already as he is the organiser of the group buys and there has been a more recent one at:

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
