I'm very happy with my similar setup on the race car, I've run up to 1hr enduro races on them and targas etc with no issues. These are a bargain at the posted price even if they need a reco

Pads easy to find? Good ones? or need some searching around?

I had less options than when I was running the 33/34 Brembos, for instance I could not get my preferred hawk ht-60, however there were still plenty of good brands to choose from; Winmax, Pagid, SBS are ones I've used in them. Its a pretty common porsche caliper not something wierd

Minko the forum tells me you can't receive messages!

Have deleted some messages - hopefully works now?

 

No issues with brake bias, car was run on street, circuit, street sprints by myself and previous owner and setup was perfect.

Duncan sorry to bombard you but since you're the expert on this setup, have you run this ok with ABS?

Also with the dog bones/adapters, any chance they would suit R34 GTT or would you need to re-drill or re-tap them or the uprights? From memory R32/33 might be 12mm bolts whereas 34 is 14mm (or vice versa)?

c'mon guys this is a for sale thread not a brakes discussion. I wanted to add some information which might assist the sale but seriously, at $800 this is an awesome deal.

I still run ABS in the race car, I have no balance problems or ABS issues although I have chosen to run different pads front and rear.  The seller would have to confirm details about the bracket but the one on mine is an excellent piece of 5mm steel angle. Obviously I don't know bolt size on this sale but if it is larger than your hub (ie M14 into M12 hub) you could drill out the hub easily, and if the bolt is smaller than the hub size (ie M12 into M14 hub) then you could do nothing (because it will be fine once torqued) or use 12-14mm sleeves if you are concerned.

At least one offer has been made pursuant to the recent discussion so good result I'd say...
Seal kit anyone?!

See page one of this thread for the seal kit :)

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
