These are not standard GTR brembos. The caliper brackets are for R33/R34 GTR only.

The F50 brembo kit has larger calipers designed for larger diameter rotors, these are 355mm as opposed to the standard GTR with 324mm.

Yeah i know i was just thinking if it was possible to fit these and what is it about em that makes em for 33/34 only.

Hmm custom brackets would be a bit of a job

As far as I know R33 and R32 Brembos are the same and as mentioned above the R34 brembos have a different diameter mounting bolt.

All that may need to be checked is the current size of the bolts that mount the spacers to the hub with the F50's.

May be best to see what was done to the mounting brackets so that they would fit your car after being an R33 kit.

I will bet that the mounts have been drilled out, meaning that these will now only fit R34 GTT and GTRs. That said they will eaily fit R32 and R33 GTR/GTSt if you drill out the cars hub so that you can use the larger mounting bolts of the R34.

Good luck with the sale...they are a good durable caliper with reasonably priced pads :)

Actually Troy I didn't see Ray make any changes to the mounting bolts or caliper bracket. I had R34 GTR brakes on the car before which bolted straight on.

These will fit an R33 and R34 GTR, R34 GTT... please don't make comments and assumptions unless you know the facts. Cheers

R34 GTR/GTT brakes don't just bolt onto R33 GTR/GTS-t, so if it fits on a R34 GTR then it wont fit onto an R33 GTR

what car were these brakes fitted to?

Actually Matt these will not fit a R33GTR without drilling out the hub for the bigger bolt. I know because I had to get it done to fit them on my car.... :banana:

This kit is to suit an R34GTR, but will fit 32's and 33's with very minor modifications, it will take around 30 secs with the a drill and right size drill bit....

So we can assume R34 GTR/GT-T have the same mounting bolt size on hub and 32/33 GTR/GTS-T have a slightly smaller one.

Hope that clears up everything and BUMP for a great brake upgrade for any skyline.....

Ahh ok that makes more sense, thanks Jack. My point is that I know (as you know) that this kit will fit on an R33 GTR (albeit with very minor modification) which is why I made my comment.

Contrary to Troy's comments, the mounting brackets themselves were not modified that I know of.. therefore yes we can assume the kit will suit R34 GTR/GTT primarily, and the other cars will require small modification to the Hub.

I appreciate everyone's input though, hopefully I'll have a buyer soon :D

I told you something was up :) ...mate im just trying to help, save you from dramas down the road in case the buyer finds they dont fit his R32. LOL you didnt even know the facts so .. hurry and buy the Alcons :ermm:

    • If doing that ^, I'd take the idle up valve out and plug the hole in the pump.
    • You can try capping the power steering idle up valve at both ends if it's old. The valve and the intake manifold. That is something that is known to fail in Toyotas with age and it will suck power steering fluid into the intake and burn it in the engine which can cause issues. Then bleed it again with engine off first. Do like 30+ lock to lock turns with the front wheels off the ground.
    • Hi Brent, I am wondering if you ever worked this out? I have upgraded this unit to a newer one and everything works bar the reverse camera, so i really want to know what plugs are what so I can patch the camera through. many thanks in advance Mike
    • Once you have to get up in the morning and be useful, you suddenly value sleep it turns out :p
    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
