33 With 32 Brakes.

[shaun_perry]

I have a 1994 R33 (ECR33) Nissan Skyline GTS-t.

It has R32 brakes calipers F&R and R32 wheel studs.

I need to replace the old worn rotors but do not know if I can use R33 rotors.

I cannot see why not. The way I see it is that even though there are R32 studs on the hubs, 32 and 33 stud patterns are the same, yes???

Can I just go and buy R33 rotors and fit them??

I need help. My car is currently un-roadworthy and I just need the rotors for it to be legal.

Thanks,

Shaun.

Also.

Or am I better off removing all the R32 stuff and go back to R33 brakes, calipers, etc.

As far as I know, this conversion is actually a downgrade.

What 32 brakes are you talking about?

get the rotors to suit your calipers. so GTR rotors for GTR calipers or GTST rotors for GTST calipers

What 32 brakes are you talking about?

Honestly. I have no idea.

All I know is when I went to Autobarn to get the brakes, I was told that it had single pot rear calipers for which I bought R32 pads for and the fronts are a 2 pot front caliper that I ended up putting 4x4 hilux pads in, as they were cheaper and "heavy duty". (don't crucify or curse me) as they were the same part number.

The studs are a 1.2 pitch and are R32 studs.

That is all I know. I only had the car for three months and had to do a roadworthy for transfer into my name. That was nearly a full year ago. I am desperate for info. I miss driving my skyline LOL.

So should I buy R32 GTR rotors or R33 GTR rotors???

Also I am unsre if they are GTS-t rotors or GTR rotors.

See the predicament I am in?

measure the diameter of the rotor. measure the height of the rotor (braking part and hub part). measure the thickness of the rotor. then go on this website in the product search bit

and see if you can find a match to what you have.

a quick check is, R32 GTST rotors are 280mm diameter and R33 GTST are 296mm diameter.

and the 32 gtr rotors are 296x32 while the 33 gtst rotors are 296x28. You should be able to interchange 32 gtr and 33 gtst rotors.

but if you have 32 gtst rotors you will need to replace them with 32 gtst rotors, or else get some 32 gtr/33 gtst calipers and 33 gtst rotors
