need pic i would have thought

Ok lots and lots of choice, however make the wrong choice and you wallet will groan....

 

Worse choice:

 

Nissan UK

Standard fit Nissan boxed pads to fit a R34 GT-R Brembo calipers £290 OUCH!!!

 

Not so bad choice:

 

EBC Red stuff

R34 GT-R Brembo calipers £102.80 ( Demon Tweeks Direct ( E-Bay) )

Best option:

 

BMW spurious brands:

Little known fact is the BMW 8 (E31) 850 also used the same Brembo calipers, as a more main stream car than the GT-R the spurious suppliers can do a better deal, so look for the BMW fittment instead and the prices then start from £36.16 ( LINK BELOW)

Ran a set of spurious BMW pads in my Brembos for 4 years no bad pad wear or dust and brakes pin sharp feel, cost me around £35 at the time....bargain without compromise.

 

 

Hope that helps.

Very interesting Jeff - I assume that means BMW sourced calipers can be used as a Z32 upgrade; given that the GT-R ones can be hard to come by......

 

.....Although the 850 is not exactly common-place either...:wink:

 

Great advise though mate!!

I have something to say............ It's better to burn out than to fade away..... :tt2:
