Gtr Brakes

[Direwolf]

Hi,

I have done a search, but just wanted to definitely know, on a S1 is it possible to upgrade to GTR brakes or brakes meant for a GTR like for instant K-Sports ?

Thanks

s1 = anything to suit r32/r33

s2 = anything to suit r34

So yes I have 8 pot 330mm D2s on the front (same as K sports maybe?) and R32 GTR brakes on the rear but I think the D2s were an extravagance (need replacement rotors at over $1000 now) and would recommend the GKTech (its an Aussie company) big brake kit if it fits the Stagea (I think it should):

Have you put r34 brakes on an s2? I am asking as I have an s2 rs (rwd) that I have put r34 gtt brakes on. The bolts were m12, r34 brakes are m14. I machined new m12 inserts for the r34 calipers. perhaps rs vs rs4 is different?

[pipster11]

yup, mine is a s2 running r34 front brakes

must be the rwd part, front struts are similar to s15 from memory so apparently rwd is the exception to the rule there

should also add r32,33 and 34 rear brakes are the same

Yep r33 brakes bolt straight on to a s2 no mods required

I've got a 32 D2 kit on my S1.....never had an issue with em.

Bob that replacement sounds expensive, have you tried a couple of places? In any case, at least you only have to replace the rings and not whole discs including centres

The brakes themselves are great...but I got carried away at Hampton Downs a couple of weeks ago and got some serious metal to metal in the brakes. In fact they have been machined and look ok but the NZ agents for D2s cannot supply replacement rotors - only pads. I have asked around and the only source I have found are Race Brakes and they will be AP rotors (of which D2s are copies).

I haven't tried the Aussie rotor manufacturers yet but will do.

ahh that makes sense....I got my replacements from Just Jap.
