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.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
