bigger brakes

[dilated]

what bigger brakes can you fit to a pulsar 1.6?

the gti-r discs are really expensive but i have heard that the N15 discs/calipers will fit and so will S13, any know any more?

also is the N15 Almera gti the same brake parts as the N14 GTi-R?

The Australian N15 (which should be the same as yours) has the same discs and calipers as the gtir. The callipers are called AD22VF's and they fit 257mm by 26mm discs. These bolt up directly to earlier model pulsars up to the N13's.

Where's the cheapest place to buy these discs/calipers?
Also - what about those S13 discs that were mentioned?

I would recommend cross drilled and slotted rotors which if you are in Australia can be sourced from DBA for about $140ea retail. This will also mean no engineers certifiacte required! A decent set of pads will improve the braking feel as well. As they are made for most Nissan Pulsars, it is a worthwhile upgrade if you have less than 150kw at the flywheel.

As someone who recently cracked a pair of cross-drilled DBA's (without being overly hard on them!) I would very much recommend against them. They cost about $400 all up for my N13. For roughly the same money you can get the N15 2.0 brake system and you will be much happier! Also never run high friction pads if you do get cross-drilled rotors (eg, EBC greens, bendix ultimates, etc) or you will crack or warp these delicate rotors very easily!!!!
