Found a set of 32 GTR rotors, calipers and brake lines for $800 for my na r34.

just wanting clarification that it would swap over without and modification. (except for brake lines),

Been told it would but couldnt find a definate answer before i part with the $$.

Thanks

i stuck gtt brakes on my 32 gtst

only mod needed waht that the bolts that hold onthe caliper in much bigger on the gtt so had to drill out the mount

now 32 gtr are the same size bolts as gtst and the gtt has bigger bolts

so if u have bigger holes than the bolts for the gtr calipers u might be in a little trouble

Hey mate.

Have a read of this thread... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/N-....html&st=20

If it was me I would stay with R34 brakes so you don't need new hubs etc. I have em on my 32 as well and they're awesome. Larger than 32 GTR as well. 310mm vs 296mm.

If it all works out for the R32 brakes and you've not committed to the brakes you've found I've got a full set of R32 GTR brakes including 2 sets of pads. All in near to new / very good condition. Check this out.

Cheers.

you can use a sleave/insert which goes into the mount holes in your hub to reduce it to the right size so you can use the smaller bolts. or you can get the calipers fitted with timeserts (stainless steel threaded inserts) which will enable you to run the bigger GTT bolts. cost about $100 to have someone come out and do all 4 holes for you. rear i'm not sure on, but that's the deal with the fronts anyway.

Just buy R34 GTT brakes or go the whoel hog and get soem R34 GTR Brembos. They are the same bolt size and because of the issues Baron describes above are really only good for R34 owners. So R34 Brembo brakes often work out cheaper then R33 Brembos because you don thave to fiht every R32, R33, Silvia and 300ZX owner for them. Demand = Dollars

Ok, I have put R34 V-spec brembo's on my car and unless your car has GTT hubs they wont bolt straight on, and you will need R33 GTR brembo's.

The bolt for the r34 gtr brembo's is to big, so i had to drill the hole out to make the bolt fit. The Rears bolt up perfect. You will also need to adjust your handbrake tension as the rotor is alot bigger.

Any other questions just ask.

It only has the stock little gt brakes so i dont think it would have the GTT hubs..

How much did the set of 34GTR brakes set u back. only reason i was considerin the 32 ones is cause they were 1000 or under, dont really want to pay close to 4 grand.

Even the GTT rotors and calipers and hubs would be nice, but dont really know much about how to get a set of hubs or if they would just go straight on or not.. i assume they would though (not real good with brakes knowledge)

From this it sounds like GT's have the 12mm hole, not 14mm like the GTT's....

A full set of R34 GTR V-spec calipers, rotors, lines and pads and only used for 17000k's cost me roughly 2.5k delivered. On top of that there were braided lines $250 a set and getting the rotors slotted $133.

^^ thats right. Reason being the r34 gtr bolts are 14mm ( same as GTT). R33 GTR bolts are 12mm (same as R34 GT)

Are they Vspec R32 GTR brakes? As i was under the impression that unless it was a Vspec the 32 GTR brakes werent brembo. So why would you bother?

He has an R34 GT. Non turbo. Brakes are single piston I think. Hence the upgrader to bigger better ones with more pistons.

r34 gt na brakes are 2pot fronts, 1 pot rear, the same as na r33 brakes.

The r32 gtr, r33 gtst calipers/rotors will bolt straight up, no mods are required (which are 4pot front, 2 pot rear)

The caliper bolt size difference only applies to the turbo model r34's, the na's still run the smaller 12mm bolt which is the same as the r32 gtr and r33 gtst so these will bolt straight on.

So to answer your question, yep they will bolt on

ok, thats the kinda news i wanted to hear..

Hopefully ill be able to get the $$ in time,

otherwise ill just have to save my pennies for a bit and find another pair..

Only other concern is that will i need to get a bigger brake booster for the brakes or will my stock one do the job? (sorry if its a dumb question, just dont want to miss anything)

Thanks for all the input btw everyone, been a big help.

    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
    • A lot of what you said there are fair observations and part of why I made that list, to make some of these things (like no advantage between the GSeries and GSeries II at PR2.4 in a lot of cases) however I'm not fully convinced by other comments.  One thing to bare in mind is that compressor flow maps are talking about MASS flow, in terms of the compressor side you shouldn't end up running more or less airflow vs another compressor map for the same advertised flow if all external environmental conditions are equivalent if the compressor efficiency is lower as that advertised mass flow takes that into consideration.   Once the intercooler becomes involved the in-plenum air temperature shouldn't be that different, either... the main thing that is likely to affect the end power is the final exhaust manifold pressure - which *WILL* go up when you run out of compressor efficiency when you run off the map earlier on the original G-Series versus G-Series II as you need to keep the gate shut to achieve similar airflow.    Also, how do you figure response based off surge line?  I've seen people claim that as an absolute fact before but am pretty sure I've seen compressors with worse surge lines actually "stand up" faster (and ironically be more likely to surge), I'm not super convinced - it's really a thing we won't easily be able to determine until people start using them.     There are some things on the maps that actually make me wonder if there is a chance that they may respond no worse... if not BETTER?!  which brings me to your next point... Why G2 have lower max rpm?  Really good question and I've been wondering about this too.  The maximum speed *AND* the compressor maps both look like what I'd normally expect if Garrett had extended the exducers out, but they claim the same inducer and exducer size for the whole range.   If you compare the speed lines between any G and G2 version the G2 speed lines support higher flow for the same compressor speed, kinda giving a pretty clear "better at pumping more air for the same speed" impression. Presumably the exducer includes any extended tip design instead of just the backplate, but nonetheless I'd love to see good pics/measurements of the G2 compressors as everything kinda points to something different about the exducer - specifically that it must be further out from the centerline, which means a lower rpm for the same max tip speed and often also results in higher pressure ratio efficiency, narrower maps, and often actually can result in better spool vs a smaller exducer for the same inducer size... no doubt partly due to the above phenomenon of needing less turbine speed to achieve the same airflow when using a smaller trim. Not sure if this is just camera angle or what, but this kinda looks interesting on the G35 990 compressor tips: Very interested to see what happens when people start testing these, and if we start getting more details about what's different.
