Will R32 Gtr Front Calipers Go Straight Onto A Gtst?

[blue_leaf]

As above.

[Angry]

yes

[Bl4cK32]

depends if brembos or not and rotors used with....

[T04GTR]

why? same pad. unless you change the disc to a 32gtr disc your not going to achieve anything.

and your disc is to thin.

if you got the discs then happy days.

Ok, I am talking about R32 GTR so no brembos, but I thought that the GTR calipers have larger pistons even though they use the same pads??? Please confirm/correct me there. And what is the standard rotor sizes for GTR and GTST - eg width and diamtre?

[BHDave]

piston size is the same.

r32gtr sumitomos suit a 296x34mm rotor vs gtst 280x32.

[Bl4cK32]

gtst rotors are 30mm thick, gtr ones are 32

so its not really a bang-for-buck upgrade if that's what you're asking here..

why not go some aftermarket slotted rotos if you want some increased braking performance? or a brake master cylinder stopper?

[BHDave]

oops

[blue_leaf]

Ok. So what exactly has been changed in GTR caliprs - is it just the geometry og the caliper to allow 32mm rotor and thats it?

[foznice]

the difference is exactly what BHDave said.

The piston size and pad are exactly the same. The GTR caliper allows you to run larger rotors.

What about the R33 GTST front calipers - how do they compare with R32 ones and are they intechangable?

[Bl4cK32]

r33 gtst calipers are identical to 32 gtr ones.

r33 gtst calipers are identical to 32 gtr ones.

dont r32 gtr have two types???

- non brembo (i.e. sumitomo) which like you said are the same as r33 gtst

- brembo which are different again.

to clarify we are talking about r32 gtst right?

to4gtr says they have the same pad as gtst? which one, the brembo or non brembo? (if the same is non-brembo that makes the pads the same as r33 gtst?)

anyone with a solid answer?

you answered your own quetsion. Yes u are right.

Yes

R32 gtr Sumitomos use the same pad as r33 gtst.

What's the question?

R32GTR callipers are Sumitomo, and basically the same as R33GTST Callipers

Some R32GTR's did come with Brembos, N1 and V Spec for example. But they are not anywhere near as common as the standard R32GTR Sumitomo callipers.

The difference between R32GTR and R32GTST callipers is that the legs on the R32GTR callipers are longer. Hence spacing the calliper 8 mm further out from the hub, thus using a 16 mm larger diameter rotor.

Brembo pads only fit Brembo callipers.

Did that answer the question?

Cheers

sweet...

i think i read somewhere further up that 32 gtst and 32 gtr had the same pad - had a brain seizure. eish.
