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.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
