hahaha

Johny5 · 09-06-2004, 11:56 AM

he said besides the z's. all i can think of is some good hard biting pads on oem calipers or z32s. no other rear upgrades that i know of. that search link that guy put up only seemed to have z32 rear conversion in there, better luck next time.

Ritz S14 · 09-06-2004, 12:04 PM

Okay.. Yeah guess I didn't try hard enough. The Q45 rears will work. Need more info, then search.

Ricer240sx · 09-06-2004, 02:03 PM

that link u posted said no mateches dushe bag and i did search!!

derrick · 09-06-2004, 02:38 PM

just save your money for now since you're poor right now, and when the $ comes around do the z rears. they are great

ledzeppelin240 · 09-06-2004, 05:53 PM

First of all from what I understand he already had Z rears. So why tell him to get them again???

And the search says Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms. You are and idiot...

How about big brakes...

it's douche bag

Ricer240sx · 09-06-2004, 06:03 PM

idk what it is im tired lol

but i think what i am going to do is see if i can get a company to make me some 13in rotors for the rears and stay with the stock calipers but get some bigger rotors back there with some custom brackets to increase the stopping power!! cause i plan on going with the 13" conversion for the z brakes in front eventualy and i think it looks goffy to have big brakes in the front and small ones in the rear lol

Ritz S14 · 09-06-2004, 06:26 PM

At the time the link was posted it did work.. But yeah the Q45 rears will work.

projectRDM · 09-06-2004, 09:38 PM

Z31 rotors work with custom brackets, same width and offset.

I can skid all of my tires on dry pavement without a lot of effort using brembo blanks and axxis pads. . . For anybody looking into upgrading their brakes, try going for some good pads and fluid first. I'm sure most of us don't *need* big brake upgrades. Heck, I built my ideal brake system for a grand total of around two hundred bucks :P
