Righto, cables received... thanks Al.... although I can't help but feel that there's not enough hose... what about the hoses that run from the front of the car to the rear calipers? I'm assuming they're rubber as well? Or are they metal piping? I"ve never looked... time to read up on ripping my brakes apart.

OK. What is supplied in the kit is purfect, the only thing you need to reuse is the solid metal pipe that fits onto the Calipers on the front. Every bit supplied by Maltech is well labeled so is totally idiotproof.

The only thing i reccomend is that a GOOD quality 10mm Pipe Spanner is required because the fittings are extremely tight both undooing and dooing up and you dont want to round the fittings. I can't emphersise the GOOD QUALITY bit enough.

Fantatsic group buy Al

I got mine too. Went all the way down to drysdale (Geelong) to pick them up, but the Maltech boys were in Melb. that day. So I got them to ship em to me.

Rintaro, it is not too late, just post what you would like, i will update the first post (so Maltech can confirm the order) and follow the steps outlined in the second half of the first post (titled: What to do: ).

Allright, I'll see if I can do it Monday. I'm interested in braided brake lines for R33 GTS-t with red rubber end cap. So it's $356 delivered then.

Cheers,

Rianto

Mine are in along with my DBA 5000's.  Was pretty easy to do.  I recommend poeple buy a 10mm pipe spanner.  they are worth the money

Damn, that would be the next mod list :-P

Nothing is worse than a car that won't turn and stop well on the track :-)

Yeah I took my car for a test run and I'm happy to say that it's a completly different car. There is a huge difference between a stock GTR and one with a few dollars spent in the right place. Brakes and suspension first. More power later.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
