Brake disks and pads for S13

mario_200sx · Post by **mario_200sx** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 7:43 pm

I'm gonna order sum disks and pads for my car Monaday, mine are shot!

Front disks and pads and rear pads only, disks are fine.

As soon as I got all the details I will post the parts numbers and where to get it.

Ordering from Autozone. Apparently the S13 disks and pads is the same as Primera or Almera, not sure.

Friend of my dad thats building a main-circuit 200sx gave me the part numbers.

Will update.... And swear when I need to install them!!

Excellent.

Can you get part numbers for the rear discs?? I'm not even gonna bother phoning nissan for a price.

So far the closest match seems to be the old skyline rear. Only difference is the Hat is 4mm higher. But I was thinking there are ways to get around that.

And can you also get the specs on the discs? So far it seems there are two different brakes for the s13 front and rear.

Ferodo performance discs for the S13 (280mm) are R1110 from sportflow.
OEM from Nissan is R975 + VAT. I fitted OEM fronts about a 5000km ago and they are already shuddering.

Brake shudder experience on all my sx's since 1991. Even with replaced disks by Nissan. Not good. Also I skeemed them, then you end up with troubles. Long story short=Powerbrakes work fine now.
You can check out previous threads on this issue. The sx s13 like in stock mode= cant brake. You will rather breake your neck

well according to the troubleshooting brake charts they cause for my shuddering discs are low friction compound pads (OEM) or driver abuse

The solution is stated as: "Skim or replace discs. Take it easy..." LOL. Ja right...

i will argue this everytime!

the stock s13 brakes are fine for a stock s13!!!

if they aren't working for you perhaps you need to think about the way you are driving!

the car was built for public roads, not for a racetrack.

and...

powerbrake is a fantastic upgrade. chemcool's discs look awesome!!!!
