adrian, I'm not in a rush to get these on since I'm really not lacking any braking power. The nissan calipers are absolutely fantastic performance. This was more just a bit of bling I thought I'd buy coz it was the right price Hehe

Dyl im keen on the nissans if you want to offload them once you fit these.

Is this after the hassles with Berk? I recall you achieved 253rwkw ages ago but I wasnt sure if you had it tuned again after refitting the turbo.

Yeah after all the berk tech issues i got it refitted but didn't retune.

Same turbo so shouldn't really make a difference. I'll retune after I W2A it though (however came across a water leak into my boot so my ECU might be screwed now anyway...)

Wowzers Dyl, how much? (if you dont mind me asking).

i don't know how much it will all cost after it all goes on... and I haven't shipped them over yet, but probably >$2k by the time they make it to more door, and possibly >$3k by the time they make it onto the car with brackets and bigger discs required to be bought =/

Very nice brakes man!

I'm assuming you'll be keeping the TYPE III calipers/RX8 disc combo for the rear?

yeah, however will probably need a prop valve of some sort just to get the balance right.

As it is now the rears never lock up!

Nice brake set up dylmrt. If you need new or hardly used rotors, contact Geoff at competitionracecomponents. He has al the right gear and knowledge. He doesn't sell the rotor hats but I evo65 has pointed me in the right direction of an engineer who will machine rotor hats for a fair price. I will be ordering a set for my car in 10 days , so if you would like to join in for a set for your car just drop a line.
cheers

Interesting steve,

I will be using the hat from the rotors supplied but i'd probably like to get some bigger rotors. But i won't be getting them any time soon so i'll probably contact them in due time.

How's your beast going?
