fittted front r32 gtr rebuilt calipers, cpz bracket, 324x30mm 350z track rotors drilled, with stagea (front) braided brakeline

pads are qfma1rm all round

mags needed to clear are 18x8.5"

on the r32 track car Im putting on the stagea rear rotors, stagea rear braided line, stagea rear calipers & pads

on the front goes the wilwood superlite calipers & matching braided brakeline & pads, plus a new set of dba 4000 rotors Ive got sitting here

Dixcel Part No.'s for Series 2 Discs WGNC34.

I'd be pretty sure they be straight swap, OD/Offset/Thickness same.

PD-Normal Disc

SD-Slotted Disc

HD-Heat Treated Disc

HS-Heat Treated Slotted Disc

The rrp price is there too converted from yen (currently 76.6)

DIXCEL 98/8~01/12 WGNC34

Front Part No. 321 2013

pd 218.41

sd 327.62

hd 341.16

hs 450.34

Rear Part No. 325 2018

pd 218.41

sd 300.23

hd 354.81

hs 453.99

is that per rotor or per pair (assume pair)?

can anyone confirm whether brakes are the same between RS Four and RS Four S (i would assume so)?

actually, according to the Dixcel website, i believe the part numbers are (for S2 C34):

FRONT - 321 2013

REAR - 325 2016

(as opposed to 325 2018)

i am sourcing pricing from japanparts, and will pass on the details

apparently all S2 are the same, but S1 are different

for S1 C34, i believe the part numbers are:

FRONT - 321 2019

REAR - 325 2018

cheers

Fitted some RDA954S rotors and some Greenstuff pads on the weekend.

The RDA954 rotors definitely fit s2 RS4V, anyone having fitment problems, make sure the calliper is clear of the rotor (use a screwdriver for leverage, make sure the rotor is nipped up with a wheel nut so it is held tight) before tightening the calliper bolts.

actual dimensions for ROTORS series 2 1999 rs4s

FRONT -

diameter 290mm

height 48mm

centre 68mm

minimum thickness 26mm

brand new thickness 28mm

REAR -

diameter 292mm

height 63mm

centre 68mm

minimum thickness 16mm ( couldnt remember exactly what measurement was here but pretty sure this was it could be 14)

brand new thickness 18mm ( couldnt remember exactly what measurement was here but pretty sure this was it could be 16)

so far from my searches nothing is exactly the same.

and from what i could see on dixcel japan website is that there are 4 or more different type of rotors between series 1 and 2 some going right through all models so it is possible that some suggestions that have been posted will work on some cars and for others it wont so make sure u do ur research b4 u buy or take some of the advice on here

If series 2 RS4S is the same as series 2 RS4V, then the 350Z rotors will fit.

i have had it at a brake specialists for the last 2 days and they said they will not be right 1st major difference is the thickness of the rotor od is out and height is slightly out on the 954s rotor

BUBBA just let them get on with it,

Whatever you want to get fed is up to you, I fitted them on the weekend.

Agreed, I'm over it.

Anyone found a solution for dogbones to fit 324mm GTR rotors yet? :cool:

With 33gtst/32R calipers yes, I have a solution that *should* work but haven't tried it yet. I have a set of dogbones that fit on non-4wd front hubs but they hit the lower ball joint on 4wd hubs. I have another set that are supposedly off a z32 that offset the caliper as opposed to the other ones which rotate it.

With stock calipers, not yet as I need to solve the offset issue.

meh...

must have been the small print on screen.

here's a screen capture for all to refer to.

actually, according to the Dixcel website, i believe the part numbers are (for S2 C34):

Fitted up new front slotted rotors with new pads today and if it doesn't rain tomorrow I will fit new rear slotted rotors and pads then bleed brakes allround.

Which rotors did you use on the front, RDA 954S? I've had my set machined down and will be fitting them tomorrow.

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
