Brake pads - even if you upgrade the discs and calipers, they will not make a 'huge' difference if you continue to use stock pads.

A killer set of jap pads make a massive difference - endless SS-S is my favourite for the fronts, very good initial bite, low dust, dont fade (well didnt up in the adelaide hills :P ) as they are rated to around 500 deg C. The difference of fitting a good set of pads cannot be over- rated.

If you want something for the track, then an upgrade to brakes and pads may be the way to go, but seriously, upgrade of the pads is a MUST either way if you want stopping power.

Rears, once again any decent jap pad would do wonders. If you are thinking drift, a set of dedicated drift pads would be the shot - such as URAS or endless, they both do them.

Fronts are around $295 from D1 Garage, otherwise, check out greenline. Price would be similar as post is going to be a problems as they are heavy items to import.

      Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
