Hey guy’s my name is Edan, I’m the owner of silver mine motors. I guess I’ll tell you a little about our company, then I’ll tell you what we have available for your car, and lastly what we have planed for the future.
Currently I have two cars. 1978 280z and 1990 240sx. When I got the z after a few months of driving it as my daily driver I realized that I needed better brakes. Since there weren’t too many cost effective kits on the market I decided to put my own kit together. When I finished I decided to put the kit on the market. Since them I have been making more brake kits for the z cars. Currently we have three kits available for them.
About six months ago I got my 240sx and decided to start selling brake kits for them as well. Basically if the demand for the brakes is high enough I will keep making better and better kits. Right now we carry two brake kits for your car.
I am already in the process of making a rear brake kit which will be completely new to the market. It should be done in about 3 months. I am also going to be selling suspension parts in the near future so check back every few weeks for that.
Anyway here some pictures of the kits we sell right now and their descriptions.
Thank you for the warm welcome neo!
Price = $435
Stage 3 big brake kit for 240sx (s13 and s14).
This kit includes:
1. Dual piston calipers.
2. C.N.C. drilled, slotted and vented rotors with Zink plating to prevent rusting.
3. DOT approved custom fabricated steel braided brake lines.
4. Ceramic brake pads.
5. All necessary hardware.
As you can see this is a complete kit. There are no other parts needed to complete the installation. This is a big brake kit for any Nissan 240sx. The calipers are two piston calipers, which are a big increase in piston size as opposed to the single piston caliper that came on the car from the factory. The drilled, slotted and vented rotors are professionally built with CNC machines, and zinc plated to prevent rusting. These rotors have diamond slots. This eliminates dust build up at the end of the slot and helps dissipate gasses evenly through out the rotor. The steel braided brake lines are custom made to fit this brake kit for easy installation. They are also government DOT approved just like the stock brake lines that come on new cars from the factory today. So you can believe they will not have any problems. They are also steel braided with a layer of clear lamination to prevent expansion of the line under pressure. The ceramic brake pads are made by Posi Quiet. They have a 25% increase in pad surface area when compared to the stock 240sx brake pads. They are very quiet and smooth. If you don't want the brake pads you can subtract $20 from the final price. This brake kit will make your 240sx stop so much faster after it is installed. These brakes are off a car that weighed over 1500 pounds more that the 240sx and came with a v8 engine that made 300 horse power. This brake kit will fit all 240sx cars with the stock 4x4.5 and 5x4.5 bolt patterns.
Price = $475
Stage 4 big brake kit for 240sx (s13 and s14).
This kit includes:- Four piston calipers.
- C.N.C. drilled, slotted and vented rotors with Zink plating to prevent rusting.
- DOT approved custom fabricated steel braided brake lines.
- Ceramic brake pads.
- All necessary hardware.
As you can see this is a complete kit. There are no other parts needed to complete the installation. This is a big brake kit for any Nissan 240sx. The calipers are four piston calipers, which are a big increase in piston size as opposed to the single piston caliper that originally came on the car. The drilled, slotted and vented rotors are professionally built with CNC machines, and zinc plated to prevent rusting. These rotors have diamond slots. This eliminates dust build up at the end of the slot and helps dissipate gasses evenly through out the rotor. All rotors are drilled to fit any stock four or five lug 240sx bolt pattern (which is 4x4.5 and 5x4.5). The steel braided brake lines are custom made to fit this brake kit for easy installation. They are also government DOT approved just like the stock brake lines that come on new cars from the factory today. So you can believe they will not have any safety problems. They are also steel braided with a layer of clear lamination to prevent expansion of the line under pressure. The ceramic brake pads are made by Posi Quiet. They have over 25% increase in pad surface area when compared to the stock 240sx brake pads. They are very quiet and smooth. If you don't want the brake pads you can subtract $20 from the final price. This brake kit will make your 240sx stop so much faster after it is installed. These brakes are off a car that weight about the same as your 240sx but had a twin turbo v6 engine with 300hp. It was considered one of the fastest cars made in the 90’s. This kit will fit all 240sx cars with the stock 4x4.5 and 5x4.5 bolt patterns.
