Perth brake parts carry em as i recall, DBA i think, why not upgrade to slotted. Give em a call on 94519455.

MSTRYODA had them before its demise. I hear they are a pretty good rotor and cheap too. Get Racebrakes RB26... i think thats teh number, Pads to go with em for a good combo.

Hmm they seem to have gone up a little since i last checked, which was a couple of years ago.

Ahh well if u want something cheaper im sure they could do that too.

oh and the guy ud wanna speak to is Steve Baxter.

Sounds like a typo look how close that d is to that r.

Remember though, the thiner they get the more brake fade ure gonna get, and im sure weve all come across that after 2-3 hard brakes. Id prefer it was 4-5

Cam,

How worn are they,can they be machined? Are they under 29mm?

thanks

They are worn. I think they can be machined, though there was no problems with them while I was using them so they probably wouldn't need it. I'll give them a measure and let you know.

I bought some standard (not slotted) dba discs for around 110 each.

Slotted are great if you are going to push the car hard. Unless you already have upgraded pads and are starting to get fade, it probably wont be any advantage at all though.

Good pads make a huge difference to the stopping power.

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
