haha well the other side was rusty - and if my brakes got that good-a workout they wouldnt be rusty :cheers:

least now everyone realises im not a whinging female and their was really something wrong!! ..... and at least Cam did my rear and not my front!!

ones been snapped for a while Richie .... but it satin such a way on the caliper that it didnt leak - when they changed my pads yesterday they saw it .... its bent and snapped ... and just disintergrated when they took caliper off.

Other one is rusty and probably pay me to get that replaced as well.

And my disc were so badly in need of machining that theeir machine was "heavy duty" enough for the job so they had to take them to someone else.

that sounds like my old front brakes, they were getting really spongy and when i pulled off the wheels to get the suspension off we found that the caliper centre seals were gone on both sides.. that and the discs looked like they had ridges in them!

My brakes are good now but they shudder when they get hot cause they werent bled properly when they were changed.

yes the place said i was a very lucky girl!!!!

thats why on the country cruises i didnt push it as much because i knew something wasnt right with the brakes!

hmmm have to make sure im alright for cruise Sunday then - cos i will have New n Improved brakes to test :cheers:

well it'll give me the confidence to shove my foot on the accelarator more cos now at least i know i can stop!!

yeah got to iron out this roughness in my car .... i was listening to it when they started it up at brake place and yeah its sounding a bit like an old jallopy!

gotta get price on Redline Gearbox oil today for paulie - all 18Litres of it. Oh and i was at the brake place looking thru a holden mag .... thats all they had honest .... and there was a picture of my mechanic 'ironing' out some problems on some featured guys car ....... bloody trev he is!

haha i cant believe that you let a Trev do all the work!

I have to change my gearbox oil too, mines getting a little crunchy, i dont think that is has ever been changed.

My mate is getting some stuff though where he works.

I have still got a couple of thoudans kms till my next service, luckily...

    • Thank you for the feedback bro. Looks like it’ll have to stay off the road till it gets an ecu 
    • Only if you do not You will not be able to drive it with any serious load without risk of it pinging, which will either slowly or rapidly kill it, depending on how bad it is.
    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
