Well the S15 is booked in for mapping on the 17th, and the turbo-to-manifold gasket has started blowing. i have to take the manifold off to replace the gasket, so i might as well upgrade it at the same time.

Where would I be able to get oem brake discs?
Also, In the future thinking about getting the Ksport - 330mm front upgrade (or the R33 Brembo's), what would people recommend putting on the rears? Any direct replacements?
Maybe next month I'll want to upgrade my turbo, just after a list of things I'll need:

Hey guys,
I've come across a front pair of R33 GTR brembo's.
Just wanted to ask, on their own, are the front pair a worthwhile upgrade? Is it necessary for me to upgrade the rear to brembo's as well. Or am I able to use GTST brakes or something similar?
Also.. what's involved in upgrading...
Hey guys,
I'm thinking of upgrading the factory turbo to a bigger unit. I was looking at the GT2871r 52t (aka GTRS) as it seems to be a direct bolt on.
Are there any other turbo setups that you guys could recommend (maybe 3071R)?
The car is daily driven, and i've been hitting up a few...

Just thinking are these essential for when you upgrade cams?
I'm going to want to install the Tomei Poncams when I get round to rebuilding a second SR engine and wondered whether the cam sprockets have to be manually adjustable in order to advance/retard the timing??

My ethos with the 15 is to keep the spend low by waiting until something needs changing before upgrading.
Right, so I've got to the point of all round brake change as my rear discs are really old and all round the pads are down to the minimum (and well beyond:D). So the economical time has...

You may have notice that the forum was down for a number of hours last night (GMT). This was caused by some problems upgrading the server's base software to allow the forum software to be upgraded.

Ok so Im going to be fitting a Walbro 255 to my car.
One thing I just wanted to check is do I need to upgrade the Fuel Pressure Regulator at the same time or is the standard one fine?
Thanks.
Just wondering, I don't find the brakes great on my S15 (could just be because I had Brembo F50s on the Chaser) so would like to do something to upgrade them, dont want to spend much though so was thinking of just discs & pads or think I saw something about upgrading to bigger discs. How is this...

Hi guys,
I'm at the point of now upgrading the front brake calipers on the Spec-S "Top Banana" and I have two choices. Use s15 front calipers or Skyline GTR/S alu calipers.
However, before I embark on replacing the discs, hoses and calipers I want to be prepared. My question is: Would I need...
looking at upgrading my brakes,as i dont think the standard brakes are very good.
nice new pads & discs and braided brake lines.
Does the goodridge braided hose set for the s14 fit the s15 ?
The brake upgrade kits that bren does(Apex) are they just fronts or is it rears too ?
