[@TheTreidyh]

first time viewer. nice video. just suscribed l. gotta learn how to fix my 76 280z .I'm a 62 year old carpenter who's ready to learn auto repairs!

[@PanchosGarage]

+Tom Reidy welcome to the channel. You'll do well with your 280. All you need is the factory manual, a little reading and you'll be in great shape.

[@Kowalski401]

I really enjoy your videos! Great work on the Z!

[@PanchosGarage]

+thomas langpaul thanks

[@blufc3s]

Another great video. I look forward to seeing these!

[@PanchosGarage]

+Stewart Ingalls thanks! I'm currently working on two episodes. Keep an eye out, they're coming out soon.

[@PegasusSrdet]

Nice!!!!! Youre doing the same suspension set up as me but im doing it on a Datsun 510 i love t3 parts and quality. Good job

[@PanchosGarage]

+Pegasus Sr20det510 I agree. Their quality is up there

[@2JZdatsun]

Love the explanations and videos Francisco...I'm going with the ATS calipers up front with the T3 5 lug conversion

[@PanchosGarage]

+2J-Z nice!

[@InvincibleExtremes]

ill be putting 2014 mustang brakes on mine. for now rocking the stockers.

[@PanchosGarage]

+Invincible Extremes Muscle Cars Garage oh sweet. Those are a definite upgrade over the stock calipers.

[@TheMagicTaco]

Did your dog grow bigger while eating & turning? That looked freakin amazing...!

[@PanchosGarage]

+The Magic Taco I was afraid he'd take off like a helicopter lol

[@totalcookiee]

always looking forward to your videos keep it up dude! :D

[@PanchosGarage]

+CookieTehGamarh thanks!

[@quagmireglen87]

great vid!! im getting this kit later thanks for the help!!!!

[@PanchosGarage]

+quagmireglen87 it's a great kit. Highly recommend it

[@rattlecannydanny8620]

Are those Ed China glove ? Informative video as ever Francisco

[@PanchosGarage]

+Danny Boylan you know, I never noticed that until right now that you pointed it out lol.

[@racketman2u]

Bigger ventilated front brakes made a huge difference to my Z, file this mod under "mandatory"!

[@PanchosGarage]

+racketman2u definitely. Can't wait to test them out.

[@ericloya6943]

I can't wait untill it's finished 😍

[@PanchosGarage]

+Eric Loya you and me both!

[@SC457A]

Does the brake kit call for thread locker? Was wondering due to the heat the rotors can generate. I know road racers safety wire the bolts a lot.

[@PanchosGarage]

+SC457A it didn't but it's probably a good idea to put some on there. I'll add that in once I get the bearings packed.

[@SC457A]

Might look for a high temp one. Rotors get pretty dang hot as you know. Would make normal thread locker softer. I assume the hardware comes with lock washers

[@PanchosGarage]

+SC457A yeah. Lock washers are provided

[@Driver240z]

Great Videos Francisco. With that brake upgrade kit can you still fit 15" wheel or have to go bigger? Look forward for your next videos.

[@PanchosGarage]

+Rafi Rolon I barely fit my 15 Koniq Rewinds. I posted a pic on my Instagram not too long ago showing how close the caliper came to the wheel.

[@Driver240z]

What's your instagram name, I'll check it out. Thanks and great job on da Z

[@Revengeance_]

You think you can include how much you've spent on this build already in the videos? Trying to price out my own Z build. Enjoying the content, keep it up.

[@PanchosGarage]

+Revengeance how much? Wayyyy to much lol. The less you modify, the more $$$ left in your pocket.

[@drivewaybuild280z6]

Do you know if they sell those bracket separately?

[@mllave240]

I am interested in that JSK kit.

[@PanchosGarage]

+Mike Key shoot me a DM on Instagram or Facebook. Someone else messaged me before you, but if they don't take em you're next.

[@23wrks39]

You install the wiIwood big brake while I gotta figure out why my left rear drum kept leaking.... It makes me sad...

[@PanchosGarage]

+Lance Wang good luck. Hopefully you can fix it and it won't leak anymore.

[@1dickycat]

Nice job man! Huge upgrade over stock lol So about your other BBK, is it for s30 chassis only or would it work for a s130?

[@PanchosGarage]

+1dickycat it's for the s30 only as far as I know

[@OrtegaDrives]

damn nice man! I want to eventually get these

[@PanchosGarage]

+Ortega Drives do it!

[@tuckerschultz6876]

Great video will they fit a 510

[@PanchosGarage]

+Tucker Schultz no, but I believe T3 either has a kit specifically for the 510, or you can do the 280zx strut swap on your 510 and he has a kit for that.

[@eldis4304]

Is there a pcd difference between stock one and big size one?

[@PanchosGarage]

Pcd?

[@iilmac]

also interested in the kit.

[@PanchosGarage]

+B Mac shoot me a DM on Instagram or Facebook.

[@iilmac]

Francisco, please reply with a link to your facebook. you're name very common on facebook.

[@PanchosGarage]

+B Mac links to my social media in the video description

[@Ak47fauxy]

What is that gold stuff called

[@PanchosGarage]

What gold stuff? The part that goes between the rotor and hub?

[@rpman4787]

Do you still have the JSK kit?

[@PanchosGarage]

+Richard Manone nah, it's long gone.

[@walperstyle]

Pro Tip: Look at the camera on your phone/ipad/whatever you are filming with, not the picture of yourself. THis way it will look more like you are talking to your viewers.

[@PanchosGarage]

+walperstyle thanks for the tip
