There are alot of options. Your best bet is to get onto r31skylineclub.com and do some searching.

good or you can ask me i got a 31 too.

im going to be doing a R33 gts-t brake up grade very soon (just getting cash).

you will need the following:

R33-gts-t calipers (there 4pot and will be wildly avalerle here at sau)

R33 gts-t disc (req DBA sloteds)

custom made brake lines (req braided) there is a company that does them that are adr aproved.

r31 gts or HR31 stuts (lower 1/2) this is because the caliper (on r33 ) mounting points are futher apart then the r31 items.

all up could set you back a $1000-$1500 depending on how much the struts and calipers cost.

the brake lines are apx $200 a side.

chears brentt

p.s. you can then fit 6ot brembos if you have the cash

yeah. thats how i did mine on my dr30 rs. (same strut) machine off the disc to make it a hub. then i used a dba 330mm commodore disc (blank) got it drlilled to suit.

same as the above kit but i needded 10mm spacers to achive the corect offset for the caliper/disc combo. and this all fit behind 16's looked cool. just all brakes behind em :laugh:

      Kaizo Industries put a VIN plate over where the Nissan plate would go. It was part of how they broke the law and attracted feds going after them.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
