Hello,

I have the front calipers rotors hubs and brake booster off a r33 series 1. - will these bolt onto the cef?

Also If I get the rear will these bolt straight on as well?

ps - how on earth do u get the rear seat out?

no idea about the brakes.

but the rear seat. run your fingers around the underside of the seat part, till you get to a clip. and pull up. there is one on each side of the car about a foot inside the door. then you undo the screws that hold the rear of the seat on.

hope that's what you mean

if the R33 hubs and calipers have the same fittings as the R32 then yes it will fit. Hope that helps.

Not sure on the brake booster, thou i need to upgrade mine also so would like to know aswel.

Ok thanks. I will look into. I have just read all previous threads on this and have all the parts so i will do it in the next week or 2 and let u know.

I have R33 front and rear brakes on my cefiro.

I used S14 front and rear hubs to convert my 4 stud setup into a 5 stud one.

The R33 front hubs and discs bolt straight up to those hubs. I didn't bother using the Brake booster. I get good feel with the standard one.

The R33 front calipers are identical the R32gtr's. If i recall the 5 stud cefiro runs R32 style front hubs - in which case the R33gtst calipers should bolt straight up.

If the car is going to be used for drift, then use the S14 bottom arm as it's longer and lets you run more camber

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
