    Hi

    I want to buy breaks, good breaks front and back.

    Anyone know where to look for the best price?

    I am in Queensland Brisbane but if they're cheaper elsewhere i wouldn't mind ordering them.


    thank you


    kind regards

    I love a good break. I just went on a smoko break and the weather is gorgeous....

    oh...Brakes?!

    Mate, depends on how much you want to spend. Brembo's from the 350z are a good bolt on upgrade others can comment on cost, you also have wilwood, ap, and stoptech kits out there for about 3-5K and then you can look at the 6pot porsche brembo upgrade which will set you back up to 6-7k. Or there are cheap D2/G4 and rotora upgrades.

    There are some good breakdancers in Australia, you just have to look around.

    On another note, if you've got stock standard brakes and don't want to take out a loan to get some new ones, just get some slotted rotors and decent pads from caz.

    Cheap, quick and will last you quite a while.

    sincerest apologies then. I'm in quite a cynical mood today.

    BUT the rest of my post stands. That was informative. :D

    Sourcing a set of these may be the best bang for the buck.



    On the other hand, since you have a greater abundance of R33's there, perhaps doing what Michael "LB1984" did might be even a better route.

    What is your intended use?

    Street?

    Track?

    Combination?
