  1. Oh good to know ! I'm still thinking about this t3 brake kit . The only reason why I have put on hold , I picked up a 350z last fall to play with .
  2. I agree . Thats why I think its down to the 2 companies that really seem to have it together . If the templates fit my wheels it should a go ! This is why I put this out there for some feedback etc . This could be a costly mistake for sure if it isn't right . Yes caliper piston volume and pedal ratio comes into play too . Miles what year is your car ? Didn't you change your booster ? From what I understand 73 and up are bigger 8.5 vs 7 inch on earlier 240 zs
  3. Yes , read many many forums . Many nice kit options too . My research from today..... I talked to Silvermine and they said I need to run spacers . I don't want spacers . Recommended wilwoods for front but proportioning valve for the front to turn down because the smaller rears aren't strong enough ... Yes the front .. Usually its the other way around but I get what he meant . Still nothing ha had that I was looking for to fit behind me wheels . Meaning the mustang rear calipers won't fit 15's etc.... Ok onto next ..... Arizona .... Killer setup ! Dave said it should fit my 15s and I will double check the template to them ... Problem with the Arizona ..... NO Park brake setup with a cable ... yet .. He said thats coming . Recommended 15/16 master . They look good if I wait it out to see when they get the park brake setup. Techno toy .... Another great setup all wilwood .... Said no need to change anything master , etc .... Just bolt on and go . Gabe sent me a template and it looks real close with possible little grinding to the park brake lever . They are using a really cool wilwood caliper with park brake built in . It's a modified rare wilwood so that made me a little weary of incase issues could I get another easily ,but again it's a wilwood so .... Also I could go with 15/16 master option for firmer pedal but said not necessary . California Datsun has a good setup but running the maxima calipers and wilwood fronts also recommend 1" wilwood Master . I'm fine with changing master to 15/16 or a 1" but which one is best ??? 1 or 15/16 ??? Many opinions in the forums and also including booster to go with . I also understand the pushrod length issue too . I really don't want to invest in a maxima caliper for almost the price of a Wilwood in other kits , although we know when going for an upgrade from drums its some kind of caliper , so I get it using a maxima caliper can do that . Arizona and Techno toy have wilwoods and both figured out my wheels will fit with a little grinding etc no big deal there . Of course I will double check all fitment possibilities before I pull the trigger . I think the decision is between Arizona and Techno toy tuning once I verify fitment . Oh and ...... I really don't mind paying for someone who set their kits up to sell ready to go . It's just what works for me . By the way all very helpful companies just different ways to make a pizza ?? lol ..... Just looking for feedback on fitment with rims , brake feel etc .... Thanks again It's getting time to go through all my brakes after restoring car 17 years ago and have maintained the components . I just figure hey what the heck go for the good stuff even though I'll track it once in a blue moon . I do drive it hard when it is driven I mean why else would we do all this crazy stuff ? LOL
  4. Techno toy tuning now has an all wilwood setup with park brake . The say the will work with my wheels very little mod to rear caliper no spacers . I like that setup for the Wilwood quality all around . They say no master upgrade needed . Silvermine has options but not much for my wheel size . Also not all Wilwood . California Datsun has a stage 2 setup front wilwoods and maxima rear calipers with Park brake and they recommend the 1" master and proportioning valve . Who's running what here ? Suggestions ?
