Hey peoples... these were going to originally going to go on my R32 GTS-t (4door), but it is now for sale so i'm not going to bother...

The kit consists of:

2x 324mm or 330mm JZA80 Supra discs, RDA slotted items... (can't remember exactly... it's one of those sizes... 330mm from memory)

These discs are BRAND NEW, NEVER USED. They've been sitting in the cupboard for about a year... they still have the greasy film on them from the factory...

Also included is 2x custom laser cut steel brackets... 10 or 12mm thick steel... i don't have a ruler so i can't measure... needless to say they're very thick and beefy.

This kit will fit R32 GTSt's and the like, as well as silvias. Silvia's with 4 stud wheel patterns will need to drill 3 extra holes in the discs to suit (if you've got 4 stud)...

The only thing you need to supply to fit is a few bolts for each side, and a few washers (ie. steel plate with a hole drilled in it), the same thickness as the brackets! (easy)

These discs are huge... that's a 2L juice container for reference in the photo...

YOU WILL NEED AT LEAST 17" RIMS TO FIT THESE DISCS (and some 17" rims will not work, due to caliper clearance)

$400 for the lot, postage at your own expense. Pickup is fine. These costs me ~$450 for the discs alone a while back, and the brackets set me back about $80...

As an idea of their size, 32 GTR discs are 297mm... and they're still a decent size.

Where are you located?

What calipers are these for? Do these suit the 280mm rotor caliper or the 296mm rotor Caliper?

What is the distance from the face of the disk where the wheel sits on to the friction area of the disk?

Thankyou.

These are to suit the 32 GTS/t (and 300zx..? I'm positive they're 99% identical) calipers... as far as i know, GTR calipers *will not* fit. So that would make it the 280mm disc suiting calipers, i believe?

Do you mean the depth? I'll take lots of measurements tonight and paint them onto one of the images... :unsure:

No problems.....thanks for that.

Ok, discs are 324mm!

here's the rest of the measurements... they were done with a measuring tape (not sure where my calipers went argh!), so bear with me if they're a mm off... but it should give u a general idea!

wats the best price you can do delivered to vic 3103 mate?

cheers

Hmmm probably $420 posted.... allowing 15kg or so for weight, thats like ~$40 postage (regular, 4 days) once i take into account all the padding and boxes and all that... i'll confirm tommorow, taking a disc down to weigh it... provided postage isn't much more than that, $420 would be what im after (posted)...

Let me know if you're interested still :(

Bump! someone make me an offer... :(

Bump! I'll take of a rim/caliper and mock these up on my R32 GTSt to give you an indication of their size, and how the setup sits... If I get time, I'll also make up the mentioned washers to avoid any hassle/confusion for whoever buys this... :P

Cheers guys,

Christian

Sell discs separate?

Only if I can get a buyer for the brackets...

Here is an update in paint of what i mean by you will need 4 extra bolts, and 4 washers! It's from a top-down view, I hope it makes sense... I've also included a few photos of the part on the hub/strut (where the factory caliper mounts to) which is the same width/thickness that the washers need to be! it's ~10mm...

post-10015-1190707830_thumb.jpg

The brackets were made this way for strength reasons, you COULD run a skinnier bracket and have it running between the disc/strut, but personally I wasn't happy with that idea... (strength issues... personally, I don't want a caliper bracket that could potentially break off or crack! hence the extra thickness of these ones...). A few of these were made at the time, with one set being used on a sileighty track car pushing over 450rwhp, with no issues :D

The part I'm pointing to below, is the part where the caliper mounts to the hub. A washer will need to be made approximately the same thickness as this!

Another comparison shot against my r32 GTSt stock brakes:

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
