Hey guys,

Ive been offered a set of Evo 8 MR brembo's and pads, both front and rear for what i think is a rather good price.

Only thing holding me back from getting em is whats involved to fit it to my 32gtr. I know i'll need to get some custom brackets fabricated up, but whats involved in that?

Is it a very pricey thing to get done? Is it sorta 'dodgy'? Or would you just recommend getting 34gtr brembos instead?

Also, will I be able to run my standard 32 GTR sized rotors on these for the time being? If im not mistaken Evo's have larger disks than GTR's, but due to financial restraints, I was thinking of re-using my smaller rotors on these.

Thanks in advance :P

no point going the bigger calipers if you are going to keep the same diameter rotors IMO

I would think upgrading to R34 GTR calipers + rotors would give you more bang for buck but then again I don't know how cheap the EVO stuff you have been offered is

I have just done this upgrade (R33 GTSt) and have noticed a big difference when stopping hard, can't really tell pottering around town but it really wants to throw me into the steering wheel when I jump on the anchors

      I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.

      BTW, the reason I came in here to "update" this list was that the Garrett G Series II range have been released and I've updated the list with their flow details if you're curious to check how they fit with previous Garretts and other brands The G-Series II G35 990 looks like a banger...

      Hi all, I thought I'd put one of these references in here before but it seems I haven't - not sure how many people are actually using this place still but I feel like there are guys lurking about who might find this reference useful or interesting.  A lot of the time people don't catch key details or even fully understand how compressor maps work - or don't even look at them and just go from heresay about deciding how different turbos may compare, but I've been putting together this table over the years as a quick reference to get a gauge of how certain compressors compare to cut down the time that can be wasted looking around aimlessly. * This relates purely to compressor flow, so won't necessarily reflect the outright capabilities of these turbos as the power potential also comes down to the turbine side.  If you understand this, you should be able to use this 😃 * The inducer and exducer size listed are the mm of just the compressor wheel * The values under the "psi" headings are "lb/min airflow" and reflect the maximum airflow that compressor supports before it's efficiency dips under 65%, or it reaches it's maximum speed - whichever comes first. Any questions, or requests for other turbos which the compressor map is available for then let me know 🙂

      And what you pay for a pack of 8 bolts and nuts at Bunnings, will land me 200 of the same nuts and bolts from a fastener shop.   M12 * 1.25 IS a standard. It's not like ordering M12x1.25 and hoping the thread pitch is right. Unlike ordering an ounce, will get you 4 different amounts depending on which ounce someone takes it to be. Your issue is a supply issue.
