Second that Adam!

Good info, how come he started quoting it anyway? Lol

 

[craig8585]

I'll add this thread to the useful links, that way all of the information is there and if someone has a question it may be answered in simple terms here

 

[meddler]

There is some great info there. One thing though, the R32GTR calipers are alloy not cast iron.

hi guys, do you know what´s the Master Cylinder diameter from s15 spec-s non turbo? same as spec-r one?

 

[sliding-r]

the spec-s has single pot front brakes, so no!

 

[Marius_s15]

so in case of replacing, can i use the z32 one directly?, i mean plug & play.
I´m gonna fit z32 front calipers.

 

[sliding-r]

Well you should really do your rears aswell as that BMC is designed for 2 pot rears. It may make rears lock easier!!

 

[Marius_s15]

so that means i´ll need less pedal for a good braking.
Am i correct?

 

[sliding-r]

less pedal for braking the rears.. basically the bias or balance will be to much to the rear.

for instance:

70% front 30%- rear normal bias

55% front 45% rears - Z32BMC with stock rears

Just for example purpose, this is why rears are more likely to lock... The Z32 BMc will flow more fluid to try pump twin pot rears you see...

 

[Marius_s15]

well, the thing is that my stock BMC is broken and i have to replace it.
A guy offer me a r34 gtr BMC but i just gonna fit front 300zx calipers.
Will i get better braking with this r34 gtr BMC or should i get s14 or s15 spec-r one?

regards

Put up a question on SXOC mate, they maybe able to help further

 

[Gielie]

Ive got a question;

My car, a S15 Spec S has the completly front and rear brembo brakes of the Nissan 350Z.(the gold ones)
Which BMC is the perfect upgrade for my S15?

Thanks!

 

[sliding-r]

z32 or even better r33/r34 gtr imo as brakes are eaxactly the same size and type on gtr..

Nissan S15 Brakes
[EXTRACT 1].....The non turbo also uses a 4 stud hub. [EXTRACT 1]

[EXTRACT 2]Brake upgrades are all 5 stud so if you have a non turbo S15 you will also have to swap hubs [EXTRACT 2]

Nice post, (I love detailed spec posts ), but please note that Non-Turbo S15s have a 5-bolt hub and wheel setup..
