Rear disks and ABS Upgrade for Strada

[Mike2]

Mga Diesel Gurus,

May nabibili po bang new or surplus rear disks and/or ABS for my Strada? Pwede kayang pakabitan ito?

Salamat po sa replies. Happy New Year to All!! :D

Wala po yata. I think even the Challenger/Montero Sport/Pajero Sport series which is based on the Strada still uses rear drums. Saka mahirap po mag-tono ng braking system if you somehow managed to put disc brakes there. Upgrade the front discs na lang. They do 80% of the stopping naman, eh.

ABS is something that can be quite difficult and expensive to install once the vehicle has left the factory floor. I don't think any shop does this kind of service.

[splerdu]

most factory installed abs systems use bosch, so that might be a place to start. don't expect to find any help locally though.

medyo mahal yang plan mo, lagay ka nalang siguro ng ibang parts, and baka pumalpak pa kabit dilikado brakes yun eh, pero try mo rin,goodluck:D

change your front pads to good ones. like CFM they are made in australia and is better than the stock ones. you can buy them sa distributor of old man. i use them in my isuzu it brakes better. ano ba strada the box type or new one.

because if box type many are complaining about its weak brakes, sort it runs out of vacuum, the pedal is harder to push with prolonged or if you pump your brakes. one remedy is put a vacuum reservior.

Tanong ko lang po sir kasi mahina rin ang brakes ng pajero gen 2 ko. How much kaya yung sinasabi ninyong CFM pads? ty.

Saka sa mga nakasubok na rin magupgrade ng brake pads anong brand and how much inabot.

[Mike2]

Eh iyong sa current 2nd gen pajero na rear disks pwede po kayang ikabit sa strada ko (2nd gen)? May mairerekomend ba kayong surplus shop where I can buy this and have it installed?

salamat po ulit.

[nugundam93]

afaik the rear discs of the 2.5 gen pajero is bigger than the front discs...

[boybi]

bakit po ba gusto nyong gawing disc brakes yung rear brakes nyo?

[BlueBimmer]

imo that is too much work, get the hilux nlang hehe

[vinj]

I'd go with the advice to upgrade your front brakes (pads? master cylinder?).

[Ungas]

Bigger rotors will produce more braking power than stock. Pero kung pads lang minimal lang ang difference. I tired EBC a couple of years ago, medyo umikli ang braking distance but still not enough. If I remember it correctly, nasa 12K yung damage all four corners, plus 1 liter of AGIP DOT4 fluid.

I'm using Bendix "4wd" brake pads, cost about P1900 a set. Better than stock pads of isuzu trooper.

[boybi]

i also installed bendix on my patrol. Brake King yata yung model? pucha, ang tindi mag produce ng brake dusts! 3 days after car wash, kulay brown na yung mags ko!

[jkyamog]

I think you are referring to QFM and not CFM. QFM = Queensland Friction Materials. I got mine for about 3k sa RATS alabang. Free labor on installation. Pretty good, minimal brake dust and improved braking from OEM Nissan pads. BTW I have a local Nissan Terrano, which has a reputation of weaker than avearage brakes.

maraming salamat sa mga replies.
