ive just purchased some REAR r33 gtr brembos for a very good price....just want to know what is requried to fit r33 gtr REAR brembos to a r32 gtr, i know the rotors are different size, more along the lines of bolt and brake hose differneces or do they just bolt up nice and happy to the standard 32 gtr rotor.

cheers... :(:D

When i did my converstion, everything just bolted straight on. I did need to slightly bend out the protective metal which goes around the rotor.

When I fitted 33 GTR Brembo's onto the 32 GTR

I needed:

longer brake line hose approx. 30mm, went to Pirtek to get them made up

300 mm rotors

caliper mounting bolts are a different thread, any bolt place will have them. Make sure that they are Hi Tensile steel (8.8)

brake line and brackets are the same.

Hope that helps

PS. I changed the brake seals aswell for peace of mind.

yes i did :D but you had a bracket and steel lines to fit your larger rotor, while i was doing yours i never checked to see if the brembo just fits with minimal fuss. Just didnt have the time a work, its organized madness. how is your beast sounds like you need to try some changes with setup...

Markk- so the 300 by 22 rotor and brembo caliper fitted up with the same bolts from the 32 with all the steel hoses also from the 32...

nice one thanks for the info, just unsure of the size and pitch of the bolt. is it 8.8mm by what pitch.

8.8 is a Hi Tensile bolt rating. The thing is to take the caliper to the bolt place and they will find the correct bolt for the caliper.

Everything bolted right up...

But having said that, I am assuming (and could very well be wrong) that 32 gtr Vspec brembos are the same as 33 gtr brembos.

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
