Where can I find some damn R33 gtst brake pads, 4 piston sumitomo caliper, etc. There's absolutely nowhere in the US I can find them. I'm wanting some EBC redstuff but it's not sold here. Actually, any decent R33 gtst pad will be fine, but keep in mind it will be mainly street driven with a little track.

Endless are nice, yes, but they are expensive as well. It could be a possibility further in the future. So even though the gts-t rotors are 30x296 vs. z32 tts 30x280, the pads should still be the same?

Well, why would you go for Skyline brakes if you want to buy cheap pads?

I don't understand.

Jeez man, EBC pads are great. Do not underestimate them! However, I'm not trying to cheap out as I've gotten quality goods for my car. I just don't want to spend a lot of money on premium pads when I'm not going to use them to their full potential. Not everyone can track their car everyday like you, Brian .

I haven't even started my car for about 3 or 4 weeks now.

ENDLESS Vita Nuovo are basic street pads and aren't very much at all. I run these on my s13.

Okay, they are pretty cheap; I saw some prices for them, but I need to know for sure that R33 gtst pads are the same as z32 tt pads. I'm reading a lot of conflicting stuff on the internets....

You know what you should do?

Tomorrow, call ENDLESS and talk to Dominic or Kent.

They can both help you out.If you want to, tell them Brian Harte sent you... maybe they'll like that.

I got pads for my GTR brakes not too long ago.

They can help you with everything.
