ATTKD brake kit

Anyone run the ATTKD brake kit from Just Jap ? If so, what are these like and what setup did you go with ?

Would there be much difference in going 8 pot with small pistons are just go with the 6 big pistons ?

Are replacement pads and rotors easy to come by and what sort of price ?

ATTKD, D2, G4 etc are said to all come from the same factory, Many of us run them and they work well. Being two piece rotors you just need to replace the rings, and JustJap sell them. The pads are the same size as some AP calipers, so there's a big pad selection. 6 vs 8 pot is not going to make a noticeable difference. Try searching on those other two brand names and you'll find plenty of info.

MrStabby - do they still make G4 brake kits anymore ? Alot of posts I have found are 11+yrs old on them....

Would the new ATTKD be similar to these 11yr old G4 in terms of brake technology or would the new ATTKD be much better ?

I bought D2 brakes some years ago. Disc brakes have been around for about 115 years and they have not seen huge improvements in technology in recent history.

D2 type brakes are way ahead of those found in most modern cars (other than expensive super cars).

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
