:P

Pretty flash mate

You will need to design and get milled a set of adaptors out of alloy or something to get them to bolt on

I would also look at bigger diameter rotors while you are at it

Maybe some bigger brembo GTR rotors. I think they are 328mm or similar?

Will they fit under your 17" r34 GTT wheels?

Great work Tangles 324mm will fit under 17in,NO hope with 328mm,

lol not sure what you are on today chuckie?!? 324x32 is brembo gtr size and a good cheap choice for common disc size. tangles you'll need custom brackets to suit but from steel not ally. it may end up expensive because the adapters can be $$ couple of hundred each.

330ish is fin under 17s, 355 can fit but requires the right wheels and will be very tight. so 324 brembo size is a good choice.

Was & earlly SMOKE&JOKE :) ,Good JOB it wasn`t CRACK PIPE :):wacko:

Will have a look at 324mm with some DOGBONE`S on stag at some time ,may be when RB30 is done :w00t:Here`s a few of R32 caliper`s i have had rethearded to 14mm series2 bolt`s just have to get some line`s sorted & will fit then up & see if these`s are any better then STOCK 2POT`S,,cheer`s chuckie

......mmm rb30......

anyway.....the gtr brakes will be heaps better, easier to find pads and rotors for, and cheap. I went with the G4s because I wanted new all round but before that I had the GTR gear on mine.

You'll love em, I certainly like the improvement on my car. I also just fitted a UAS Brake stopper and that has made a noticeable difference to hard stopping, e.g. brake pedal feels a bit firmer.

Only thing I am missing now is some steel braided lines. How are you going to approach brake lines Chucky? I have thought of going to somewhere like race brakes and getting a custom set made up but I am thinking if there are a number of people after brake lines it might be worth organising a group buy.

I got a quote from Maltech in March last year for replacement S1 lines - $495 inc GST & postage.

Couldn't justify it at the time, but now I've bought a set for the Z the Stagea has moved further up the list.

:)

lolz

Im already running Maltech braided brake lines, so will simply use an adapter piece to make 2+2 fit together

plus I already have a set of larger slotted rotors that I grabbed a yr ago for $50

got these Panoz 4-pots off ebay, searched Panoz Wilwood !! I paid $150aud delivered.

as good a deal as brembos surely

with pads being 120 deliv its under $300 so far

rims are BJR Grafic 17x7.5 +38 with 5mm spacers

definately going to make them fit -

just had a quick search

www.wilwood.com

They look nice

http://info.wilwood.com/BrakeKits.aspx?yea...&model=350Z

They do a kit for 350Z, so they will fit M35's??

They do a kit for 240sx(our 200sx with out a turbo) as well. . . hmm wonder if they will fit the C34

Looking on ebay.com, looks you can new calipers for $165us each?

Need to do a bit more research

these were used / made for Panoz Racing and used on the rear of a nascar (?). guy had 4 sets, they went real quick.

love my ebay

:)

will use my trusted engineer shaun at BoostWorx DynoTuning & Engineering to fit.

edit: could be outlaw 4000-series

more research coming up !! lol

324mm with 33gtst calipers only JUST fit under 34GTT rims, can't say about those other calipers but I would imagine it would be pretty close.

Aftermarket 17's with more offst would probably fit bigger but not the 34GTT rims.

They do a kit for 350Z, so they will fit M35's??

Yes.

Kit part numbers for M35 (Z33) are

NS01 (front) - SL6 BB Front Hat Kit

NSR01 (rear) - FSL4 BB Front Kit

Brake lines are required;

220-7016 (front)

220-9197 (rear)

I like them alot!

z32 brakes are the same as R32 gtst brakes, depending on the series. they are a 4 pot caliper but run on a smaller 280ish mm rotor. i'm sure you could get them to bolt up, most of the calipers share the same mounting hole centers, but i dont think they would be much of an upgrade. best go for some R32 GTR/R33 GTST brakes, or even better R34 GTT's

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
