So my C34 S2 needs pads soon.

Anyone care to give feedback on whether the R34 Gt-t conversion is worth it, time and effort sourcing parts versus upgraded feel/stopping power.

I figure once i sort some calipers, lines, new rotors, pads and a seal rebuld kit I will be somewhere between 5 and 9 hundred.

Pads for the standard stag calipers will probably be like 80 to 140 so is it really worth it.

I also plan to do this myself, my car is my daily so it needs to happen all in one weekend.

Thanks.

brand new pads for GTT i got quoted around $100 for front nd rear for bendix HD. nd $140 for QFM, around $225 each for front rotors (slotted 4000 series) rears (slotted 4000 series as well) $159 each, and got a full set of GTT calipers+Bolts+Lines for $600. unless u get second hand pads nd rotors with calipers. (calipers from a wreckers so can probably get them cheaper on here if ur willing to wait for some to come up or can find some).

GSL Rally Sport can hook ya up with pads that straight on the s2 c34.

They wrote

" Ok we do the fronts in a brand called Remsa. These are a European street pad. These are $105 inc gst for the set and we do the rears in QFM HPX compound for $79 inc gst for the set.   Shipping is free you purchase front and rear pads on the same order, or $8 for one set."

Any comments.

I have bought pads for my S2 from GSL, they we're great to deal with. Posted them straight away.

The side of the box said Nissan Murano which prompted me to search part numbers and yes, they are the same,, BUT, I'm not 100% sure if thats an Australian Delivered Murano. . So you could possibly walk into any auto store and ask for Murano pads.

I have my old pads and intend on going to my local Auto-One and comparing with Murano pads but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Good quality pads and decent brake fluid will do the job comfortably. I picked up R34 calipers, slotted rotors and pads for a good price so it was a no brainer for me to do the conversion. Perhaps with repeated stops this setup is superior but for day to day driving it feels the same.

I fitted 4 pot GTST calipers , front, used standard rotors. No great noticeable stopping power, but then I have not had to stop in a hurry

Fit was easy as.While I was at it fitted new kits and pads. Braided lines are next. Then I will do rears.

just did my 34 gtt conversion all round with T3 4000 series rotors nd Bendix Ultimate pads. and stopping has greatly improved during bedding in, ill let people know how they go on cruise tomorrow nd after a little driving. but it all depends on how much people are willing to spend on doing brakes as too wat u should do.

sorry guys wont be taking my car in hills tonight to let u know how the breaks do. hopefully i am feeling better tomorrow night. but driving through town to pooraka today. managed to catch every light. kept braking as it was at the start. so hopefully ill get the full report to u guys soon. i am thinking going QFM next to see the difference. but ill have to wait till these go.

I'm not 100% sure if thats an Australian Delivered Murano

Nope, they share the same pads as the USDM Murano, and the Infiniti equivalent.

I am not a fan of the pads on the Stagea that came with the GT-t calipers. The previous owner said they were ultimates.

Heard that before! Keep in mind, that if you're going to change to another pad, you'll have to either replace or machine the rotors to get a fair comparison of the new pad. Modern pads since they banned asbestos hate working on rotors which have had a different material on them.

I got the remsa pads from gslralleysport and it was hard to get them to fade for bedding in!!!

Say what?

they shouldn't fade at bed in, they should be getting better at bedding in.

and took car out other night for a hills run nd brakes didn't lose any pressure. but had mad brake noise. so trying to get that all sorted. cleaned front brakes today so see how they go again. hopefully be better tonight. if not hopefully brakes will get hot enough tonight to clean off what is left in terms of dirt on them. otherwise still strong brakes no matter wat :D

Check for a lip on your rotors for brake squeel

I thought you had to get past green fade when bedding in so I just went for total fade then long drive with minimal braking to let them cool

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
