Endless have announced details and pricing on two new brake line kits for Nissan R35 GT-R this week. These two kits aim to upgrade brake feel and pedal response by providing a stiffer steel braided line which resists expansion at high temperatures.
The first kit is called the Swivel-Steel kit (part number EB111SS) and the second is a Swivel-Racing brake line kit (part number EB111). The difference being the 304 grade stainless steel used in the swivel racing kit.
Pricing on the swivel steel kit is 68,250 yen ($650 USD listed at GT-RR) and the racing kit 89,250 yen.

Dom from Endless USA has posted up a comparison photo on his blog with a set of Endless MX72 brake pads next to an Apple iPhone. It kind of gives you an idea of just exactly why the 3800+ lbs of GT-R can stop so damn well.
Endless make some of the best brakes on the market and have pioneered in offering big brake kits for the R35 GT-R early in the year with their Mono6 6 piston monoblock racing caliper line up.

Endless has released two new suspension kits for the Nissan R35 GT-R this month. Available in steel body (Function-T) and aluminium body (Function-A) types the kits have a variety of options such as 6 adjustment points vs. 30 adjustment points and multiple coil types. Each kit is made to order to each customer’s specifications and all Zeal function-T and function-A kits offer full height and damper adjustability.
Prices start at 255,000 yen ($2,500 USD) for the Function-T kit including X-Coil springs and 6 way damper adjustment. 297,950 yen ($2900 USD) will get you in a set of the base model 30 way adjustable function-T sets.
For the function-A expect to pay from 311,850 yen ($3,100 USD) and up but what you get is a lighter weight suspension component and we all know who could do with a little less weight.
When GTRBlog wrote to Endless USA recently we were told that these kits (Function-A/T) themselves are not being promoted just yet but should be available in the near future. Other suspension types already offered may be ordered with custom setup for the R35 such as the Super Function Type-C suspension which is a circuit spec suspension setup with remote reservoirs offering independent damper and rebound adjustment.
Endless USA are however already offering the Endless Mono6 6 piston monoblock racing calipers however. Priced at $7500 USD per front set (inc. 387mm two piece slotted rotors) and $6380 per rear set (also inc. 387mm rotors). For the money however you get an extremely lightweight and rigid brake caliper (only 7.4 pounds) that outperforms other 8 and even 12 piston calipers.
