Brake Components & Big Brake Kits

One of the biggest gripes with the 300ZX is the braking system. With parts now being over 10 yrs old and still trying to stop such a heavy car which is often modified for higher performance and you'll need the best stopping power you can get. General Motor Factor discs, whilst inexpensive, will soon prove to be less effective than those you are replacing. This is why we are pleased to be selling both DBA discs with their "Kangeroo paw" design and Porterfield Carbon Kevlar pads to help achieve the stopping power you need. Great feedback from my customers on these products, so try them for yourself.

High Performance Brake Discs

DBA (Disc Brakes Australia):

'Kangaroo Paw' is a patented hi-tech disc rotor ventilation system, designed and manufactured in Australia by DBA. The ‘Kangaroo Paw' design features a series of 144 diamond and tear drop shaped pillars and columns. A 20 per cent increase in disc rotor efficiency directly translates to reduced brake operating temperatures, brake fade, disc rotor stresses, disc thickness variation, run-out and shudder. A superb combination when paired with our Porterfield R4-S pads.

Available in stock sizes for the 300ZX TT & NA, as well as larger discs to suite R33 GTR calipers. Also available are the 5000-series 350Z discs.

3G:

By using Brembo blanks as a starting point before being machined to 3G’s unique specification, you are getting performance on both counts, add to this the range of Porterfield Carbon Kevlar pads, your Zed will achieve the stopping power you need.

** NB - all prices quoted are for PAIRs of discs & shipping is roughly £17/pair of discs**

K-Sport Big Brake Conversion Kits: 6- & 8-Pot

K-Sport big brake kits provide the ultimate in stopping power for your car. Integrating new brake technology into the design of the kits allows for a kit that reduces brake fade and continually cools and refreshes the brake pads surface under braking. The lightweight calipers come in differential bore configuration and are machined from aero grade billet - they weigh just over 5lbs (2.25kg) each! The rotors utilise a 2-piece floating disc assembly which greatly reduces rotating and unsprung weight. The floating disc also stops thermal stresses from warping the disc surface. The slot design on the rotor greatly reduces braking noise and expells gas and pad debris faster than conventional slot designs.These brake systems are designed for easy installation with minimal tools required.

Content of kit:

  • 6- or 8-Pot aluminium calipers
  • 330mm, 356mm, 380mm or 400mm rotors with machined aluminium hats/bells
  • Carbon steel caliper relocation brackets & fitting kit
  • Stainless steel braided brake lines
  • K-Sport brake patd (Ferodo DS2500 brake pads available at £70 extra charge)

Minimum wheel requirement: 18-inch

DTA Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines

Bought a Goodridge kit (or any other after market kit for that matter) and found the lines did not fit? Our DTA lines are the FINAL answer in braided brake lines for your 300ZX.

We spent many months developing and testing our lines on every conceivable variant within the 300ZX range and are pleased to say that these are the DEFINITIVE brake lines if you have a UK- or JDM-spec 300.

Manufactured exclusively for us by a Goodridge licensed company, each line is pressure tested to 2,000psi prior to being shipped.

These lines go one step further - they eliminate ALL metal and rubber OEM pipes/hoses inside the wheelarches. Yes, these lines go directly from the connector on the car INTO the caliper thereby eliminating any potential for future corrosion issues. Furthermore, our (front) brake lines come equipped with Nissan specific line locators and B-clips - a feature which other suppliers don't have and your setup may therefore fail an MOT test.

Some cars have had their metal brake lines replaced at some point in their lives. If this was done in the UK it is likely that UNF male connectors were used in place of the more common Metric male alternative. If this is the case you can purchase a separate adapter kit from us.

Available from Monday May 12th 2008.

DTA Master Cylinder Brake Brace Bracket

Engineered to our own specifications from 4mm thick stainless steel, the DTA BMC Brace Bracket eliminates firewall flex during heavy braking. This in turn will make your brake pedal feel less "spongey" and thus more progressive.

Please note that this product will NOT improve your braking performance.

Available in both RHD and LHD configuration - please specify at the time of placing your order.
