Can you use an R33 brake stopper? Or does it need to be specific for a WC34?

Yes but will needed to have mods done ,

I did one for BUBBA ,& have same type on mine but modded different to his,

$300+ added to $300+ doesnt equal $10000 chuckie lol

Why don`t you worry about the details, $300+$300 + pads + lines + brakestopper is $1000 ok if you can get pads lines & stopper for unders $400 you done well .

but i guess you don`t read to well ,Just stick to your own type of car THANK YOU

I thought he was more going that you put too many 0's. Figured you meant 1,000 but you put 10,000 :P

Thanks for info on stopper. Anyone able to confirm this?

Sorry if this has been answered, but haven't had time to read the thread properly. Just chasing part numebrs for front and rear brakes on a s1 rs4.

From the first post, am I right that pads are:

1250BP (F)

1144BP ®

And front rotors are same as S14 (DBA4909)?

Anyone have a part number for the rear rotors?

REALLY ,

IF YOU HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO ADD IN THREAD DON`T POST CRAP ,PEOPLE TRY TO GET INFO NOT DRIBBLE :cheers:

Yes, Really!!! Pretty sure I did add something good - I added some clarity, because you dont seem to be able to post a coherient response yourself.

I wouldnt want someone thinking they needed to spend $10k on brakes, irrespective of if they own a C34 or an M35 :)

should i put 'lolz' at the end of the line instead of 'lol'?

i was joking chuckie!!!!!

anyway, i should add that brake stoppers were one of the best brake mods i did to my cars. cant find one for M35 tho which sucks

I bought mine from a group buy but I can't remember who organised it.

According to the Cusco website they list the R33 same part number as WGNC34 but different from WGC34 (2wd) so R33 one should fit.

Why Waste MONEY doing that on Rear

Because all though the rear 'axle' as a component does less of the overall vehicle braking, it's also got substantially smaller hardware in which to do it with, so the rear brakes, more often than not, work just as hard in the back as they do in the front when pushed hard. The biggest mistake people make is neglecting the rear, hitting the hills/track, having the rear fade out without them noticing, and put more pressure on the front, which fade, and then get blamed...

When it comes to pads in particular, there's VERY few applications where we don't recommend running the same pads front and rear. VERY light front wheel drives and Porsches (the later for fairly unique reasons) are the two major exceptions. And the same thought process have to be applied when discussing upgrades and caliper choices.

+1 on all of the above.

Might also add though that a good street setup for me is to try to get a little more bite/bias on the rear.....but there are problems with this setup as you can very quickly run out of talent!blush.gif

    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

    • I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
