am looking at a minor brake upgrade and trying to decide weather to got the UAS 343MM BIG BRAKE KIT FOR NISSAN SKYLINE GTR or the STAGE 1 BRAKE UPGRADE KIT FOR SKYLINE R32 GTR.

anyone using either?? just wondering will they both work with standard R32 GTR caliper and will they both fit under a 17" rim

cheers

They wont fit the 17" rims, best get a set of 18" rims then can go up to 360mm, if your going to spend the money then do it properly.

I was looking at the stage1 upgrade (324mm discs) as I wanted to keep the 17's I have.. any thoughts on these compared to using the 296mm stockers?

Old thread but I didn't want to start a new one.

I am looking at doing the above and was wondering if anyone has compared the two - 324mm with spacer vs 296mm stocker?

On the kits I have seen bigger brake pads are used to suit the GTR caliper that give greater rotor coverage. Anyone heard of this before?

Are these adapter kits more prone to crack the DBA 4000 rotor with track work?

Cheers.

I'm running 327mm discs with dogbones and 33gtst calipers on my 32, barely fit under the 34GTT rims I had.

Those discs with Ferodo DS2500 pads was a hell of an upgrade over the 296mm 33 discs and Bendix pads I had previously.

Thanks.

Have you tried the 327mm set up with the same Bendix pads for a direct comparison? Just trying to work out if the pads made most of the difference or the increased rotor size.

No I didn't, I got the dogbones and rotors for a VERY good price and decided to put some decent street/occaisional track pads in while I was at it instead of reusing the old noisy bendix pads.

old thread but saves me starting a new one :laugh:

im interested in the UAS 324mm front brake upgrade for the r32 gtr.

does anyone have any pics with that size rotor with standard r32 gtr caliper ?

obviously the caliper wont be making the most of the entire 324mm disc as that caliper isnt deep enough ?

anymore info/advise/pics would be great !

cheers

Do a compare & contrast between the pads on the Sumitomo calliper & those on the Brembo. You will be amused by how similar in area they are....

Did the 324mm upgrade on my 32GTR. Loved it, didn't fade like the 296mm setup and had better pedal feel.

I had no problem with the inner area not being used. I used this setup with brake deflectors to improve cooling of the discs.

Pitty it wouldn't fit under the stock 16's :P

I used project mu ns pads.

Pics of mine.
