Let's get Megan to make us a Big Brake Kit.

[0100]

So who would like to have megan make a bbk for the S13/S14? They have a kit for the EVO and STI. People who have tested said it was great.

I would be down in a heart beat. Any vendors out there that can push this?




The EVO 4 wheel kit (6 piston front 4 piston rear) can be had for less than $3000.

Go China!

gaddamnit.

i wouldnt put ANY megan racing parts on my car. just the name alone makes me want to take a dump.

looks like knockoff bro-tora, which looks like knockoff brembo.

Dude it's a 240sx not a Porsche. Of course it's a knockoff. Who the fuck cares. On my formula car I have alcons and stoptechs for my evo. My S13 will be getting straight china goodness.

wtf... what are you trying to say? 240s dont deserve to have good parts put on the car??? That's like saying a porsche doesn't deserve good parts because it's not a ferrari. Well, enjoy your cheap "china goodness." freaken ricer...


Granted, megan stuff isn't known for quality. But, their parts are cheap and they get the job done.

I think what he's saying is we can't all be expected to spend 8000$ on a brake system.

[DJ_Sunrise]

$3000 for front and rear big brakes? Fuck that. I'd rather spend an extra hr before every race day swapping in race pads that can handle more heat than paying that much for big brakes. I personally wouldn't pay shit for upgraded brakes because the markup is so fucking high. On principle alone its fucking rediculous. Are there any Toyota calipers and rotors that fit on 240s???

there are lots of Nissan brakes that fit, so why would anyone bother with toyota?

you can get a two-piece, 12.75inch front rotor for less than $300 (each) and use them with 3z calipers (w/ adapter) or 350z brembos (w/ drilling)

and all that is already overkill

Lol dude I am the farthest thing from a ricer. I said my s13 is getting megan brakes. I am building a super cheap drift car to rag the shit out of that is my goal for this car. I can't afford to put real JDM parts on the s13, all the money went into jdm parts for the evo. I just bought a Ti front strut bar for the evo that cost me $400. I think I am crazy but I have a different goal with that car which is no expence spared time attack car. I have had many 240sx's in my day some all out and some not. My current one like I said is CHEAP. If I was building my s13 full out for time attacks then yeah I probably would go with something different. If my evo was a dd I would buy the megans. Good god I love the 240sx and have owned one longer than most members on here. Relax people.

I like your reasoning. If the car is cheap then so are the parts you put on it that keep you from running into a wall.

I wouldn't buy Megan brakes even if they were 200 dollars for the whole damn kit.

hilarious hahahahahahaha

If you can't afford the real deal, and don't feel like stealing it off other peoples cars I guess its the way to go

or you could just get z, sti, or evo brembos and do that swap

6 or 8 piston calipers on a car that in most peoples cases is barely breaking 250+ hp (if you have an sr at least w/ some mods) is a little silly

[GabeS14]

I agree with you, any ways theres no big secret to making brakes, just use the right material, and correct machining,(i sent my email to them.)

Everybrand on earth started as a nobody, ridiculous how people dont see that, just because the brand is new, people wanna call it shit,
i guarantee you in a few more years megan will be all over the fucken place, and deep into the industry

Why would you spend anything near what they are going to ask for this kit when you can get a far superior big brake kit for way less money from here?

For every brand that started as a nobody and made it big, there's probably 2 brands that started and tanked. If Megan has consistantly shown dedication to making quality parts and technical prowess then people wouldn't be bashing them (besides, I hope 3 grand is not the final price, that's ridiculous).
I'm not against Megan, I'd buy some of their parts, but probably not important safety/exact tolerance/highly technical parts.

If in a few years Megan is all over the place, then it'll be because they filled in a niche in the market. Because let's face it, most people in the car scene are just there to follow the trend, they'll buy whatever looks the part.

[GabeS14]

I dont think 3000 would be the price that IS ridiculous.

Ditto. Have you seen the broke and half welded suspension part?

[0100]

The also have a 350z kit.



Email them > http://www.meganracing.com/contact/contactus.asp

[TheSquidd]

On the fence.

Yeah, Megan is cheap crap, knockoff stuff...blah blah blah, but I'll be damned they at least make some decent stuff sometimes. And it'd be nice to see some of the kids building 350hp sr20's have the stopping power they need not to kill themselves.

[kdashy]

I wouldnt be the first one to buy this, but megan sure is trying.

[JDMS1lv1a]

Big Brake Kit for an affordable price..hmm sounds good If you're not $ballin$

although ive heard some bad things about their parts

[0100]

Yup, weld it up and throw it on. lol

[420sx]

i just personally despise Megan.

CHEAP CHINESE SHIT. cant make anything worth a fuck. everything they make falls apart.

Attention walmart shoppers..... we got megan racing brake kits on sale! 15. 99

[pbcstylez]

i myself am chinese and wouldnt trust megan for anything, especially not BRAKES!

[Full-Lock]

megan racing
MEGAN RACING

that name is so gay

but hopefully megan doesnt make a bbk. megan shit is already all over, i dont want to see that logo or hear that name anymore.

megan racing hahaha

if your car comes with stock brembos (As EVO, STi, 350Z track do), why would you put megan brakes on?

people are motherfuckin retarded

3z brakes are already dirt cheap, q45's are even more so, and replacement stock parts can be had for free

Megans have a bigger diameter rotor, and 6 piston front 4 piston rear. The stock brembos suckon the EVO!

so an EVO owner should buy a $3000 megan kit instead of just upgrading the pads and rotors? OMG 6/4 pistons!

you own a $35k car and u even think about megans u should be shot
