Anyway brakes are R33Skyline calipers with 2 piece discs, discs are 288mm x 25 so a bit lighter then r33's pads are carbon ceramic SBS and yes no brake booster. I mounted a GTiR master cylinder direct on the firewall but up slightly and redrilled the pivot on the pedal to make a better pivot ratio. Cheap and work fantastic. Rear brakes are standard pulsar with metal pads as they don't do much work.
In those videos FD was a PAR 5.1:1 straight cut with welded diff.
Car now makes 214Hp on Aussie dyno which I'm told reads alot lower the US type but who knows the conversion. Cams at the moment are unobtanables (ie) top secret grind from Japan but engines almost same power with N1 cams. I think the best thing for VE's is compression and I mean anything over 13:1 is good and don't be shy with it I've tried up to 14.3:1 and it was great.
Glad to hear you guys enjoyed the vids I have quite a few so search sssgeoff to see them.
Cheers
