Hey folks ! I am looking into a break service on my Ecr33 and I ran into a dilemma concerning my front rotors options. Id like to have the same brand on all 4 corners  but since I am in Canada I have a hard time finding the 296x30 front rotors . My local speed shop can get me either DBA / Dixcel or BREMAXX . Now for the price of the 2 fronts on either DBA or Dixcel he can source me all 4 rotors and pads from Bremaxx. I try to search them online and only thing that seems to come up are Ebay AU auctions and I cant find a webpage or any other information on this brand. Any of you guys have had experience with this or any other suggestions ?

I think it is very simple.  DBA are not expensive brake parts.  They are not at the bottom of the price lists, but they certainly are not expensive.  (For proof, look at how many kidneys you have to sell to buy equivalent Brembo or Project Mu rotors!).  And DBA are known to be very good quality.

Bremaxx.  Never heard of them.  But given the choice of spending a small amount of money on unknown mystery quality brake parts, or double the money on known good quality stuff, I don't even ask the question.

Yea , DBA was my first pick also. They must be cheap for you guys since the company is local but with the import and currency exchange they are about same thing here in Canada as the other brands. I do know that some products are not available here and since I only seen the Bremaxx for sale in Australia I was wondering if you guys heard of them. I'm used to seeing overpriced stuff here in Canada so I cant really make a judgement based on the price and that's why I asked.

 

Thanks for your input !

Bremaxx sounds like some Chinese rotor, probably fine for easy street driving but would expect them to start warping with decent heat pumped into them.

Considering you're in Canada (big temperature swings), I'd spend a bit more and get DBA.

      To add to that very useful summary, even in the race/rally r32 gtr I have good quality, new(ish) poly bushes everywhere because that is what rules require, and the handling is excellent. Of course, the car doesn't do many klm but I'd still expect poly bushes to last better in road use than sphericals (especially as I have a couple of klm of dirt road to stuff sphericals up) I would change the front upper arms to spherical if I was allowed to, because the poly bushes flog out often, but otherwise new bushes (and ball joints) and a good alignment can make a world of difference

      Any chance you can get a Nistune board installed instead and set the speed limit to whatever your tires can handle?

      ER34 AT ECU and HKS SLD pins

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

      Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.

      People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
