Hey guys,

Was looking through the threads and only turned up this

http://www.skylinesa...-brake-booster/

Which didnt really answer my question, which was will a BM44 Master cylinder out of a R34 Gtst work in my R32 Gtst with standard 32 brakes and discs all corners as I need to replace my current one and a cheap BM44 has become avaiable.

If the brakes have to be upgraded to 34 items this is viable but not really good for finances at the moment so am trying to avoid this for the time been.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks all.

If it's an abs one and you have an abs one it'll be identical.

If it's non abs then the ports are in different spots. It'll work fine but you will need to bend lines and probably extend the line for the rear circuit to reach the port

Legend!! Mine is non-ABS so will modify to suit, thanks heaps.

You should also be aware of the fact that BMC off a turbo R34 is not a BM44. Turbo non-GTR 34 skylines came with 1" BMC, marked either BM50 or just '1' on the BMC body. If yours is BM44, it is probably n/a  R34 BMC, or an R33 item. It may still work, however brake balance front to rear may be slightly different to yours.

Yeah i actually investigated this further and found the pressures will different so will need a R32 ABS BM44 unit so back to the wreckers. T

hanks for the advice it is appreciated.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
