Turbo & Brakes Que??

Hi guys.

I saw the other day that i dont have the stock Garrett T25 turbo on anymore.

I have a replacement one on. Namely a Safari turbo

.hahahaThey were used as aftermarket turbos on the diesel Nissans and some other makes way back

(Guys who used to drive turbo cars in the mid 90`s will remember them)

Does anyone have the AR Ratio,and Trim specs on it perhaps?

Secondly :

My front brake rotors are cracked!Yippeee!.

Today i phoned Nissan in Voortrekkers road (P-town) and they gave me the lovely price of R1760 each (Yes,that is no typo)

Now i know Powerbrake is a good option,but i wont be using the brakes that hard.Its not really needed for my application

Any ideas???

Thanks

Karis

I thought so myself!hahaha.The 200sx isnt very fast,and i dont intend to modify it.I mean come on,my beetle will run circles around it.

Funny enough the guys arent very keen to just sell the discs to me.I wont be using their pads,as i only use Ferodo.

Hmmmmm!

The pads they supply are actually better than Ferodo's o.O
