Can anybody that's upgraded their rear rotors on a c34 comment on what rotors they went with?

Supposedly the rda and dba rotors require machining...?

Would be nice if there was a direct fit (besides the stockies)

Cheers,

Adrian

r32/33/34 rears bolt on easily (whole setup, rotors + callipers)

but you are probably just talking about upgrading to new rotors

can't help you there

  • 3 weeks later...

I can confirm these 350z 324mm rotors (with dogbone caliper adapter) fits the S1 without many issues

a bit 'dodgy brothers' in the sense the dogbone is bolted on and caliper bolted onto the dogbone, but Boy do they work well.

tested at the track and stood up well to the braking pressures applied..... cut a few seconds of my previous best time as well.

What type did you get the turbo or non turbo type? how much did they cost to get over here? Unique autosport also has a set with 2 piece rotors that looks good

In case anybody is interested in a direct replacement rear rotor for a S2 C34 - I got the RDA 7657s which does not require any machining.

after reading that, it seems like the non brembo single calliper 350z brakes/murano brakes could be a good upgrade for s2c34/m35 people

324mmx28 and really cheap, only down side is that its only a single piston calliper but if you want to upgrade but don't want to spend $$$ on brembos/r34 brakes or have to buy/change wheels this could be a good solution

We have the early model non-brembo single piston 350z brakes. They are 296x24mm and are shit.

There is a later model one apparently - 320x 28 form late 05 onwards. Really, as an upgrade I wouldn't be looking at them.

But as you say - if you don't want new wheels/ trying to save $ it might be worth it to investigate.

Well I got the 33GTST fronts today to fit to the 25G. They are 295 X 30, 2 pot. So they should pull up the Stag when the turbo is fitted.Still sourceing rear sway bar, its RWD, and front strut brace.

That link also says 350z track is the non Brembo, but thats touring. Track has Brembo, which makes a good upgrade for M35s. Ironpaw has a set and he seems happy with them.

best bet is to pm iamhappy, he has a fwd 5 stud converted, vq35 running n15 (or maybe n14) pulsar so he knows a bit about nissans and a bit about vq's (but probably not all that much about vq25's)

So does bbenny and rosella. Spoolin is running akebonos from the 370z/v36...

I got my z33 brembo rears fitted yesterday, the bolts were a different pitch, other than that no issue. Should get the r34 brembo fronts fitted today, and the braided stainless lines. :)

R34 brembos are the same as the z33 ones aren't they?

Well they did not fit.:(. So they are going on to the RS4. But I need to get some M12 bolts which is not too hard but also need some sleeves to accommodate the smaller bolts.Anyone know where these can be got or have people had them made special???????????

Can anyone confirm if Z34 front brakes will direct bolt onto an NM35?

I'm looking at the non brembo brakes, so it's a 325mm x 28mm disc and single sided twin piston caliper. I can only run these due to the fact my new rims are an A disc face and they won't clear a 4 piston caliper :(

No they won't. You need adapters for z34/v36 akebonos. Spoolin runs those brakes but he bought the whole pkg from the us which came with the mounts.

The z34 brakes are 4 pots as well...if the ones you had didn't fit I doubt these will.

Unless you've made a typo and your referring to the z33 touring brakes?

Im looking at the non Akebonos, so I assume they are the touring?

From the pic the calliper mount bolts look a long way apart. Is this what Spoolin needed the adaptors for?

Different disk offset I think mate.

That also happens when trying to fit R33GTST to a 25G N/A RWD. However I do not know if a 25G RWD has the same front end as an N/A R33GTS RWD.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
