Stagea Brakes

[PN-Mad]

I can turn you up some, PM me if you are interested.

I usually make them out of stainless...

Been using them for some time. Would recommend.

Go the 34 brakes on a s2 if you can

Someone asked about gtr rears, should be fine but you'll probably need tin snips to trim the backing plate/dust shield

cheers lads! went with the 34 setup ($250 for callipers and pads), just need some rotors now.. i am rather lazy right at this point in time do i need to mess around with lines??

No, I have r34 front and back using the standard stag lines, the rears needed some different clips to attach but not sure exactly as it was done for me.

thanks for that, anyone have any insight into upgrading the master cylinder going from stock s1 brakes, to 33 brembos?

I haven't tried that exact swap, but would not expect you need to change cylinders

I've run 33 gtr and g4 8 spots on my gtr without any bias issues. I've run 32 gtr and g4 8 spots on my stagea without any bias issues.

In the end, it is the total piston area that matters, the 32 and 33 gtr have about the same size pistons, the 8 spots have 8 very small pistons, and the stagea has 1 very large piston. you could always calculate the areas but I think you won't have an issue.

awesome, thanks heaps mate.

I changed my S1 brakes to GTT brakes with no issues. Later I put R32GTR brakes on the rear (essentially the same as GTT) and 330mm D2s on the front. I then put a BM57 master cylinder on which just means that with a larger area there is less pedal travel but more effort required. It would probably have been fine without the change.

sweet, if i have any issues with it, ill swap it out, but i figured it would be fine, just wanted to check with knowledgeable people.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but from what i have read online, 34 and 33 brembos are the same, and therefore gtr34 brembos should bolt up to my s1 all the same?

Edit: will a 324mm rear rotor and caliper off the later model gtr34's bolt up the same? or will i need dogbones to suit the bigger rotor?

No, the 34 front Brembo's have M14 mounting bolts, the 33 gtr front Brembo's have M12 like your car.

[HousewifE]

Yeah will the newer calipers have a bigger bolt or the same as the 33 rears?

[pipster11]

all rears are the same bolt size

[HousewifE]

Thanks mate.

[krzysztof]

trying to be a tightass and avoid spending 450 on dixcel rotors i spent 600 instead!

250 - r34 gtt front callipers

80 - rotors and machining

130 - shim kit from nissan

140 - hpx pads and 1L brake fluid

[stagea guy]

fronts i guys did r34 slotted rotors and r33 4 pot calipers stops good now

[RSFOURDayz]

Can anyone tell me what pads I need for a s2 34? And where can i get a set?

Sorry to be a pain guys, I've read through countless pages of what Rotors will suit the S2 C34. From what I've gathered, the 34 GTT rotors are a direct fit, but I'm looking at going for some slotted rotors. I've read that shaving down the OD of DBA brakes for the 32GTR and 33GTST will work, but that information was posted a few years ago. Does anyone know of any direct replacement slotted disks for the S2?

Again sorry to be a pain, I need to get them replaced ASAP.

Thanks

I am doing this same thing for my s1. U will find that 32gtr/ gtst, 33 gtst, and 34gtt are the same rear rotor. It was only diff for the brembo calipers.

I was talking so much about this with other stag owners and stageas WA told me that info.
