Aftermarket parts like brakes etc?

[Dreamer_m6]

Guys, who has any idea of importers or distribution agents for aftermarket brake kits? I need 2 front brake discs on the GTR and NIssan SA are so FN CRAZY they want to charge me R60k for 2 !! On top of this crazy price they dont guarantee it, so it could be F#@$ed again after 10000km, then I rather put something like AP or Alcon on which will last and is 20% of the price?

Thanks

They will make you a set of floating discs for far less.

I would personally look at a Stoptech big brake kit...

Also, wont ever use EBC shit again... makes such a bad noise with my stoptech kit, they really aren't that great. Gonna go back to the pads that Porsche uses.

WOW, at the price tag for the car, one would think it would have a maintenance plan.

HAHA they do but they dont guarantee the brakes!! Pathetic really!

If they can't have proper maintenance plans for these cars like our Beemers then they end up being Datsun's pretty fast:thumbdo:

lol at 60k i would expect carbon ceramic...

Its not going to be hard to find a high quality aftermarket cheaper even if you have to import...

I found many aftermarket brakes which get better reviews than the stock oem brakes at a 3rd of the price. NXGEN sells the AP at R24000 and Alcons at R22000 and I found local (big brakes direct) guys who make a direct copy of the AP brakes with the J goves for R 12000!

Ive spoken to a few guys who fitted the local ones and they are all very happy! So im going local!!

Nissan SA obviously dont make enough money with their GTR sales so they FU@K the customer by not giving a guarantee on the brakes to make an extra R50k every year! PATHETIC!!

Imagine you buy this car and just have enough to pay the installments and then get slapped by a 60k bill for discs? What do you do?

Really REALLY bad from Nissan SA to fu#k over their clients like so!
