brakesystem for sale?

[CMF_germank11]

Hey there!

I have just read the "factory-bolt-on"-section. But there is on problem, i can't find the parts in germany which will fit for sure... In fact of that my question, are there some people which are willing to sell their brakesytem? Or some people which could help me to search for the right parts. Don't get me wrong, i am not lazy, but i go crazy between all that types of calipers enginecodes, buildingyears etc. etc.
I am looking for the front system, fitting 14inch wheels, for a micra super s 1995.

kind regards,
christian

In europe didn't the late model facelift version of the k11 come out with vented discs at the front? Speak to some of the Uk members on here like Frank2.

i have never come across any k11,s with vented discs.
i fitted 1.6 sunny (95) slightly bigger vented brakes to my old super s, but they did,nt feel any different tbh (tho i bet they would suffer far less brakefade if abused)

Ok... that would be mad, because i am going for 120 bhp and i am looking for a brake which can handle this... The standard brake system on my micra sucks.

I have contacted a motorsport-shop, the could create a brake system with 6 piston and 286mm rotor (http://www.d2racing.com/content/products/big_brake_kits) , but i think it is definatliy too big/overdressed and much more expensive than nissan-bolt-on-parts...

Have a look at this article.

http://www.micra.com.au/technical-articles/factory-bolt-ons.php

It's a well known fact Sunny/Pulsar GTi-R brakes will fit without too much work, and Almera/Pulsar N15 brakes too. You will need at least 14 inch wheels though.

Then it's a matter of which brake pad compound would suit your driving style.

I've been using Almera discs and calipers on my rally car for the last 3 years and they work very well.

Good Luck

Hey Rabbit,

i know this article, thats why i have started this thread. Cause i found to much different calipers, or are they all the same?

Look at this, a few minutes ago i found this one on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.de/Nissan-Sunny-GTI...14&_trkparms=72:1229|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318

It is from a Sunny Gti, but the right one?

Try to get some brakes from an 1.6 100NX Nissan, they are good to find in Germany.
Or a Sunny GTI or GTI-R if you want even bigger brakes

 

[CMF_germank11]

Thanks Michiel!

1.6 100 NX but wich buildingyear?
I will have a look on ebay,

regards,

I think I'm right in saying that 100NX brakes will fit under 13" steel wheels. I've got Almera brakes; the pistons aren't much larger than stock but the discs are vented. Fitted after a severe case of brake fade when chasing a friend across some back roads, and neither of us were speeding - the stock brakes just aren't up to it.

These definitely don't fit under 13" steelies, so I found some 14s with (if I remember correctly) 165/60 tyres, so the speedo reading is still correct.

 

[CMF_Michiel]

They are build from 1991 to 1996, I got them of a 1995 wreck.
13" rims don't fit anymore.
