    gilly have you thought about the long term affects of using stiff suspension on the structure of your car as the chassis is absorbing alot of the energy that soft springs and shocks would normally do????

    no easy option there. s13,r32,33,and 34 fit as do some starion and patrol master cylinders, all require lines to be made, which is why i used CA18det brakes as i could use the stock 13/16ths master cylinder.

    SR20DE and CA18DET are exactly the same using a 250mm rotor and same caliper. personally say don't use the SR20DET brakes, unless you are going turbo, or unless you have a disc rear end or some sort of upgrade on the rear. SR brakes on the front and ADM drums on the back is a pretty mismatched brake setup!!

    Yeh I was planning on upgrading the rear accordingly....
    although now Im thinking I might use the CA brakes after all.........
    I dont believe CA brakes are 280mm as thats what I have and they are SR20det 180sx rotors........ 280mm x 22mm

    The weird thing is the CA rotors on the same site are more than double the cost of the SR rotors... wtf?

    save the hassle and run CA brakes, my theory is due to the weight of the car etc CA brakes will be more then enough.

    Yeh Im going to use the CA set up... a little less fucking around been the main reason... Im sure they will be more than adequate also....
    It annoys me that the smaller CA rotors cost more than the bigger SR rotors.......
