Slotted Brake rotors - can anyone hook me up with a good deal?


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

need to get hold of some front brake rotors, DBA 4000 series, part number 4963, to suit R33 GTS25T front rotor, left and right

Does anyone know/or can get hold of these for a reasonable price?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Group buy would be good, but I need mine for 22nd of November, as I have a few days off to get my car up to scratch for a upcoming track day

Joel, was that price for slotted rotors? Autospeed want around $270 ea

Might even go with machined up stock rotors, being a fiar bit bigger than the R32 rotors, they should still work better even if they are not slotted

Autospeed are rip offs.. :P

Discpads want $184 each.

What pads have you been running Chris?

I ran Bendix Ultimates (~$100 a set) on new rotors quite some time ago, through the hills I couldn't get them to fade.

The pads only last 20,000km's though :)

Yeah, I thought Autospeed was a bit pricey, although a few places over here have qouted me $350++

What rotors did Autobarn price you on Joel? as that price is very good!

Pad wise I ran Ultimates, but found them too dusty, so when I got the slotted rotors I ahve now (standard R32 size) I got a set of Racebrake RB74 pads, which are by far the best brake pad I have ever used, so I will be using these again. Also been on for 25,000kms, so they last a while, and living in the hills, the brakes are used quite a bit

32/33 pads are the same thing aren't they? I have about 40% left on my current ones, and was hoping to use them

We are in the market for a full set on our r32 GTR, need them by the end of the month. Group buy anyone?

I'd be keen if you could get a decent price for DBA 4000 series - part no. 4963 - 296mm slotted rotor to for R33 GTS25T, left and right :P would need them by the 22nd or 23rd of November though.........

Here's the prices I just got from Autobarn.

DBA Slotted Front - $229

DBA Slotted Rear - $229

DBA 4000 Slotted Front - $240

DBA 4000 Slotted Rear - $240

EBC Dimple & Slot Front - $289

I swear origionally I was priced in the $180 range. It was an older bloke that quoted me, he knows of me so maybe thats why I got a better price origonally?!?

www.discpads.com.au appear to still be the cheapest.

He did say however that they possibly can do a little better on the price. :P

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
