they are basically the same although the caliper is a different physical casting.

disc size the same

pad size the same

4 piston calipers with piston size the same

gtr ones are upgraded more often so they are cheaper and easier to find - but both are an excellent caliper and will be a big improvement over stock as long as your wheels clear them

Doesn't the gtr ones accept slightly thicker rotors as well? Also from the looks of it the brake lines are different, I had a set of r32 gtr calipers and there was a hard brake line which screwed into both the caliper then when I bought some r33 gtst calipers they were all soft lines, if that makes sense...

lol not sure about the value of the distinction

they are the "same" for all intents and purposes.

they take the same pads

they use the same mounts

they have the same size pistons

they weigh the same to within a few gm

they take the same size discs (you can run either 30 or 32mm thickness, you will find most aftermarket suppliers make 1 size for both)

they perform the same

32 gtr are easier to find

shane you are quite right about the 32 gtr hard piping but that can screw right out, then the same brake lines are used as the 33 gtst caliper.

Thanks for clearing that up for me :)

Learn something new everyday - thicker rotors ftw!

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
