If you’ve ever had to splice into an ECU wiring harness to hook up some gadget or other you’ll know how heartbreaking it is to cut open the nice loom and hack it all to pieces. It’s pretty worrying for those that still hang on to some semblance of a warranty too because if Nissan happen to catch your handy work you might have some ‘splainin to do.
Wiring harness patches offer the perfect solution to this problem, they offer a passthrough matched set of plugs and sockets with a short length of wiring in between for all your patching adventures. Remove the harness extension and you’re back to stock!
This latest version, just released, now features coverage for all three sockets on the GT-Rs ECU giving you access to any signal that might pass it’s way.

Well we saw these first about a month ago, huge brake upgrades from UK based Alcon had made their way to a few early customers in Asia. The brakes are now officially available to all in Europe and the US.
July 27, 2009 – Alcon Components LTD, a world-wide leader in high performance braking systems and technology, has confirmed that SpeedForSale.com will be the exclusive North American distributor of their Nissan GT-R Brake SuperKits & OEM Lightweight Rotor Upgrades.
The official press release then goes on to give a few of the details of these mammoth brake kits, the largest currently available for the GT-R.
The GT-R SuperKit has the largest brake caliper, rotor, and pad upgrade available for the GT-R, with the front rotors having a massive 15.75†x 1.42†(400mm x 36mm) size, and the rear rotors coming in at 15.16†x 1.30†(385mm x 33mm.) The kit’s 2-piece floating rotors also include Alcon’s unique bobbin drive system and crescent groove pattern on the face along with 48 internal vanes with turbulators. The mammoth sized ‘Mono-block’ calipers are machined from solid billet and contain 6-pistons in both the front AND rear, along with dust seals, anti-rattle clips, ventilated piston inserts in the front, and utilization of the OEM parking brake in the rear. The brake pads included are Pagid RS9-2 models, with anti-squeal shims and a surface area of 33.6†square inches (217 square centimeters) in the front and 18.7†(121 sq cm) in the rear. High quality Goodridge stainless steel braided brake lines complete the kit. And, best of all, these huge brakes fit inside the OEM 20†wheels and work with the stock brake actuation system!
Pretty much brake porn right there… Pricing on the full SuperKit is $12,990 including everything you need and a choice between Castrol and Motrul brake fluid.
If you’re looking at upgrading brakes but are quite content with the standard Brembo calipers, Alcon are now also producing a lightweight OEM replacement rotor kit. A full set of four, including hats, pre-assembled, ready to fit up will set you back only $3,500 or just $3,000 if you’re one of the first four to order at the link below…
