R32 GTR - break upgrade - suggestions

[NRB]

Thanks Greg. I'll chat to a mate of mine who helps me in my automotive endeavours (worked for a number of automotive crowds over the years). Perhaps we can do that when I fit the braided lines.

got quotes from Nissan 2day - and I'm looking at ~$900 for  kits to reco all 4 callipers and the master cyl

does that sound right ?

That's about double what it should cost. Shop around some more:cheers:

hi guys a good up grade is the csc brakes 343 mm rotors and 355 mm if you have 18 inch wheels the rotors are 32mm thick they run a porshe pad and give great braking and have 24 slot design so they look great to I run these on my r32 gtr and can sell the kits at a good price

Re the CSC...Whats a good price?

[Beer Baron]

all I have to say is that BRAKES is not spelt breaks... sorry for being so pedantic but it bugs the hell out of me.

also interested in the price on this csc brake upgrade kit.

thanks Richard, it sh1ts me too

Does the csc kit use the standard caliper or is it a full kit???

People i would try and rebuild the "BRAKES" ( Thanks aswell Richard) yourselves, as it is quite straight foword provided you have some mechanical knowledge. It will also only cost you about $100 in parts!!!!

And i'm guessing all you would need is a seal kit, time and some patience?

[Fitzpatrick Speed Works]

yeah that all you need and some c and g clamps to hold stuff and once you pull them apart you will see how it all works its pretty straight foward!!!

[GTRgeoff]

Roy how much did Racebrakes cost for the seal kit install again?

The Nissan prices are outrageous so give them a miss, but stick with the stockies and give them a freshen. There is a couple of threads here on the perils of spending lots on brakes and you can end up with worse than what you have, especially if you upset the balance of front, rear and master cylinder swept volumes. The GTR's do have ABS so there is some margin.

[Roy]

It was about $90 for the seal kit, turns out its the same as the S14:)

wat about porsche GT3 calipers?

i know its not a budget upgrade but ive always wanted to know wat you need to get it working cause i can get em cheap as

[Roy]

In all seriousness if you can get them let me know. They are what im looking for as they generally go for the same price as GTR Brembos or in many cases a lot cheaper.

And from what ive been told/read they are far superior. Actually ill know Thursday morning whether i have got my super dooper brake upgrade:whackit:

Not off a Porsche , but off another Supercar and they are farking big...so farking big my car will probably stop worse then it does now...but they are so farkin big ill smile every time i walk up to my car and look at them...did i mention they are farking huge:whackit:

[Roy]

...and no im not telling, they are a steal as all the ricers havent caught onto just what they are, so there is no demand meaning they are relatively cheap, so ii have been waiting forever for some to come along, and until i get soem im not sharing my secret:)
