If you want to use bendix ultimate, be prepared to be cleaning them rims alot. main complaint is that they leave a lot of brake dust, and also chew through rotors like there's no tomorrow. but they are good cheap race pad, which counts for something.

Other common pad is rb74 (www.racebrakes.com.au)

However, if u r never going to the track, then just use any old crap, just go to brakesplus or something and get what they recommend, they should be able to figure out which ones to get for a '33

for most r32 and r33 skylines, pads are db1170 on front, and db1220s on rear. but I can't confirm that for sure, coz i don't own an r33, and if you have brembo's they're different.

I've used the standard OEM brakes, bendix advance, bendix ultimates, and racebrakes RB74...

The RB74's had the best stopping power, but were crap when cold. Also, I couldn't get them to stop squeeking.

The Ultimates come second in stopping power, but first for street use in my opinion. Yes they do leave a lot of dust, but the RB74's will chew through your rotors quicker.

The bendix advance pads are good too. Cant remember how dust was, ultimates feel a little better.

standard oem pads are crap.

Just get the Ultimates, they are very good for street use, and spirited driving.

Search the forums for the part number, it is listed SEVERAL times...

I'm currently using standard Nissan pads in my 33 just for around town. They pull up fine, don't squeel and no brake dust at all.

For track I use RB74's (which didn't squeel for me around town but did after I did a trackday).

    • thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price  
    • Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?
    • Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
