Finally all my big brake upgrade goodies arrived - dropped them off at mechanic's today so hoping its all done for Wakefield on Thursday. Delta V Australia brackets for Nissan calipers/lexus discs front and my Toyota calipers/Mazda Rx8 sport discs rear, and braided lines & TRW pads. The calipers brushed up nicely this morning, and I've gone black for stealth.

Hi Alex,
Can I ask what the whole setup / package cost (parts only)? Looks to be a great brake upgrade kit.

Well I can confirm the brakes are great - worked them pretty hard at Wakefield yesterday, in the heat, no fade whatsoever. The tyres felt it though!
Parts cost (delivered) was as follows:
Brackets & lines - 660
Rotors & TRW pads- 540
Nissan GTS-T R32 Front Calipers - 200 (+ reco kit)
 
I'm on Federal 595 RS-R rubber (215/235). Able to lock up if you want, but good pedal feel to modulate the braking. Good balance front to rear in my opinion, and happy with my master cylinder (late model 15/16ths I believe)

Installed:

^^ Thanks for the info Alex.  Brakes look great!

Collected the car today - third time lucky on the clutch, it's finally fixed and feels great. Can actually drive around town confident I'll be able to get the gear I want when I want it. New o2 sensor & temp sensor to hopefully sort out my cold/rich running, oh and some new nuts...

Updated pics with new plates
 
 
 

Great looking car! Hope to see it in 2014

You'll see it Steve, just a shame it won't be this weekend due to Japan trip. Hoping for much less mechanic time and more track time in 2014!
Main (vague*) plans this year will be intercooling (shroud, fan & water injection?), fuelling, ecu, and maybe then just a touch up on the bodywork/paint and fitting the big wing I just bought :)
*Vague meaning I'll be needing to do a bit of research and get some opinions before I dive in too much!

So a couple of pics of my engine out... grubby looking unit all right! Looks more like a farm tractor on the exhaust side!
The car had been losing some compression, so before going ahead with any of the planned upgrades it's going to get stripped down and made solid.
Once that's out of the way, I'm thinking of W2A intercooling, fueling upgrade and a stand-alone ECU.
Guess I'll be getting some track time in the back half of the year :(
