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.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      Cleaner signal so timing is more accurate at all rpm also found it to start more on first rotation but could also be I've nailed prime and crank fuel. For under $400 and 30mins of your time, its a good solution especially once the optical sensor does start to play up you won't notice it until in higher rpm and it heat soaks.

      On a 400hp RB, what benefits other than "it's not 30+ years old" are you seeing from the NZ Wiring Kit trigger setup? If it were me going to change triggering, my belief would be to go for a crank trigger to remove the issues caused by what people claim is belt stretch etc, but that's from my understanding a much larger issue for super high power, rather than those in the 400hp and below club.

      The NZ wiring kit is a 1/3 the price and will be perfectly fine for your application, I've ran one for 6+ years and many others have. Comes as a full plug into factory connector and the settings for a Link. https://www.nzwiring.com/index.php/product/trigger-kit/ Always comes back to the tuners knowledge and experience with a tuning platform. It takes years to become proficient and learning all aspects and capabilities. I've been using Links for 16 years now (rb and sr paltforms) and always learning something new with adding tables, diagnostics and data logging. Stay 98 for the usability and keep it simple so you can enjoy the car more. With experience I'll give you a current example of the industry I am in. They use Motec m190 and only use VE tuning when they have a torque mapping available and would solve the "PARITY" issues that plagues the category all because the muppet doing the tuning doesn't understand the platform or want to learn it and the product seller have no idea on its full capabilities ( I had a good laugh as when firing up an older car that just got completed and they didn't understand the injector scaling or how to change it for different fuel being used)

      High temp brake fluid?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm sure there are specific hygrometers for it. But if you can just throw a high enough ranged temp sensor (theromcouple that came with your DMM, for example) into a pot of it on the BBQ, you can see when it boils.

      I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?
