poor uni student is used to not having money...so when i work a few saturdays for $20 an hour, well you see what happens

i think version 5 will be getting gtr discs and machining them down till they fit in 15s
that way i cant go bigger, or mabye twin opposing calipers

6 pot brembos on the front with 4pot matching on the rear .... may have trouble stopping the car from flipping back over the front tho on a hard brake application

hahaha or i could just grind the nissan off the calipers and put a brembo sticker on them....worked for a guy on ebay, ended up selling some of these for $500+

seems the brembos i was thinking of are no longer there....was all the brakes off a cayenne

Did you have any issues with them though? I was planning some hilux brakes soon but if there are issues with them maybe I'll look elsewhere?

 Re: new brakes version 4
nah they are all good, i had issues with spacing the disc out coz i wanted to be different and use camry discs....i was just too lazy to make a proper spacer and used washers (not exaclty the same size apperantly)

really need a booster fitted as well, i had an unboosted 7/8th and i think fitting a booster would have made a world of difference

i still plan on making the spacer up and fitting it to make sure they are all good before i sell them, rebuilt calipers and disc were machined when they went on

the only real reason that im doing this upgrade is because i got some money and thought this was a good way to spend it
