Hey dude, how much did that set you back?

$1700 for front calipers off yahoo japan auctions with pads, and brand new never used cond :D

and $180 for front braided lines

and $800 for the 2 dba 5000 rotors, usually retail for $1000 for the pair

cheers

just thought id keep all the brembo info together. i know theres not alot of guys out there that have put r34 brembos on stags. but just wondering if anybody has come across the problem of the discs sitting to far back and rubbing on the caliper???

complete set of wilwood: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Big-Brake-K...sQ5fAccessories

exactly that kit, same price (shipping was a hundred $ cheaper, AUD dollar vs USA / UK dollar is slightly down now compared to around 3months ago when I bought this kit)

fits series-1

however longer wheel studs and 8mm(minimum) spacers required to clear most rims

Ive fitted it up, no worries bar require the above (receive studs tomorrow, I hope)

So got to unbolt, fit new studs, spacers, going to flare the guards with my ebay guard roller and test drive

I fitted $10 speed bleeders to make it easy to bleed the brake lines by myself.

Will report on how they feel and perform

the user who started this topic is actually me. I fitted them with no dramas at all, and they are still on the car today.

strange. on my stag the brake front rotors (im using rda's though) sit too far inwards and they are hitting the back of the caliper. hmm, mines a ser2 maybe theres a small difference.

    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as 
    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
    • This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too  
    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy
