Cheers guys I know what you mean about the front end i had that issue when i was looking for one but when i kept looking at them ii got use to it and noticed at the time not many people owned s14s and more were buying s14a's.

thansk for the comments

Update time

Well about a month ago i went and bought a set of Z32 rear brakes from big_jim many thanks mate

well once i got them home i decided to strip everything down and they were in a poor state. So OCD came in to play again.

cleaned up calipers and they are getting stripped down, powder coated and rebuilt as we speak by Jason at conceptua-tuning

cleaned up the shoe mechanism and took them to the zinc coaters and this is how they came back.

Big thanks to Dan at DB-Power for sorting me out a set of set Z32 braided lines in orange to match my colour scheme and suppling R33 hand brake cables.

Also EBC sorted me out some brake pads and Brake depot for my grooved brake discs.
