Braking upgrade

[Adz2332]

and whats the benefits of 2 piece over 1 piece? 

[Duncan]

I'm using those but as part of an upgrade kit. I also have 2 piece DBAs on the race car and 2 piece Ksport on the Stagea

Generally 2 piece rotors:

lighter due to alloy hat instead of all cast iron

dissipate heat better

cheaper to replace just the ring rather than whole thing

 

[Adz2332]

Ho have u found the attak 2 piece v the dba ones? especially at double the price

[Hadouken]

I'm sure they will do just fine.

Another benefit from 2 piece is it reduces the risk of cracking the rotor. Being separate from the hat allows it freedom to expand and contract. (To an extent)

justjap the only place i can find to sell ATTKD?

[Duncan]

I haven't got them on the same car or tested back to back. But I am very happy with them. I would probably give them a go for a hard driven street car if they had a direct fit replacement like the link you had.

ATTKD are a Just Jap only brand AFAIK. But the Ksport, G4, D2 etc etc all seem to be the same or similar.

Im looking to replace my Sumitumos with Brembos because Im due for new everything front and rear.  I have a set of R33 GTR rear brembos.  Im curious if anyone knows FOR SURE if 350z Brembos with 350z rotors fit on the front of a R32 GTR.    I have heard the calipers and rotors off a 350z work together, just need to drill the holes to a fit the larger bolts, can anyone confirm this?

 

Thanks!

lol, thanks man.. i even googled the hell out of it.

US edition of anything isn't a good thing lol.

Just remember you'll need the bolts from a R34 GT-t when you install them. The caliper bolts from a 350Z is too long. I think for you Trump lovers FRsport or Z1Motorsport have the correct bolts for sale.

Something like this? http://www.empireperformance.com.au/home/138-mitsubishi-evolution-10-dimpled-and-slotted-front-brake-rotors.html

Also, there's a growing "trend" for the Commodore/GM Brembo calipers, not sure what the sizes are compared to Evo though.

has anyone got onto these guys lately? tried a few emails and calls and nothing back

Hey all,  anybody considered trying the CTS-V caliper swap that seems to be real popular with the S-chassis crowd in the US? Just taking a glance at eBay it seems tonnes cheaper to grab a set of 6-pots off one of those than try and go the 350z Brembo route. Plus the parts can be had new instead of used and (correct me if I'm wrong here) the disk size is also bigger. One company's offering adaptors for the S13/14 and 300ZX (literally just called CTS-V Swaps or something, first result on Google), got in contact with the guy who says the S13s should work no problem for the 33 GTSTs/R34 GTs. Been thinking of looking into it for my R34 GT so if anyone else has given it a shot would be interested to hear.

[niZmO_Man]

You'll might need an adaptor made up to align the caliper properly, but the Silvia ones should bolt on.

[DieselTime]

Apparently you need 350Z discs either way so I guess it just boils down to cost v. hassle really

[Adz2332]

i got 350mm rotors now and the evo 9 bembos. plus the adaptors.

havent had a chance to fit them yet but side by side these things are HUGE over the standard series 2 r33 fronts!

[deongster]

Hahah yeah. I got mine too. Installing tomorrow. Haha
