Stagea Brakes


Recommended Posts

There is no certain way to just tell if they will fit. You can either take a wheel and fit it on a gtr you find to see if it fits, or lay the brakes down inside the wheel and try that way.

We can't say offset of + 20will fit, because it's mostly about the spoke shape. They will fit over the brakes ok, it's just the spoke clearance you should check.

Good price too.

+1 to alex

nothing to do with offset, all about back space

also, your looking for anything R34 (gtr or gtt)

i got mine through this guy

http://stores.ebay.com.au/Skyline-spares

was really cheap too (compared to what some ppl try and flog them off for (i paid $330 for calipers only)

So I guess the $300 I paid for R34 GT-t calipers, pads, clips, shims and an untouched set of rotors is pretty good then... :banana:

I paid $300 for front stock GTSt rotors and calipers. Fitted new pads and seals. So all up $500.

I also have a donated set for when the 25G is turboed.

Hi All,

Does anyone upgraded the brake calipers on a NM35?..im looking just doing the front calipers, anything should be better than the standard single pot. Would the R32gts-t 4pot a straight bolt on? and would my standard rims fits? Theres alot of threads for brake upgrades on early Stageas but not much on later series2 NM35's. Cheers guys.

dont know about the GTSt brakes, but GTR brakes through the range bolt on. Some need collars on the bolts . cant remember which.

no, standard wheels will NOT fit on after an upgrade, except AXIS rims. and yes i have seen R32 GTR brakes under AXIS rims.

Pretty sure the consensus is that m35's have 14mm bolts like r34's so I'd go that way

Stock r34 gtt brakes are 310mm x 30mm

Gtr brakes will be slightly bigger at 324mm x 32mm but cost a fair bit more

Brembo rotors are 324mm x 30mm, not 32mm.

The only Skyline rotor that is 32mm wide is the R32 GTR with Sumitomo calipers (296mm x 32mm). You need to go to the Akebono 355mm rotor to get a 32mm wide rotor.

That's why I abandoned my original plans & went looking for R34 GT-t brakes.

For a daily driver; I couldn't see the benefit of spending a shiteload of cash to buy rotors that I then had to modify anyway, just for a few extra mm of dia.

I'm sure the Brembo's are pretty special; but for the dollars, they'd want to be.

@Daleo,

Hi, did you just upgraded the calipers from an r34gt-t? Im hoping just to do the same, dont want to spend too much on an upgrade.

What are you planning on doing with the car? If it's just going to be a road car, plenty of us are happy with slotted rotors and decent pads. My brakes didn't give up at Mallala last time I was out.

Yep, not fitted yet; being stripped, coated & rebuilt atm.

Definitely one of the easiest bolt on upgrade without the expense of going Brembo.

Look around, it might take a while, but they come up cheap from time to time.

Well im not planning on turning the car into a racecar, it will be just a daily driven car. I felt the front calipers needing a little bit of beef, rather than a single pot. Its just me not wanting to spend too much on big brand names.

    • Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!  
    • As far as I know, Infiniti stopped importing vehicles before 2020, even though they were still selling their stock for at least a year or 2 after that, they were older build years, therefore, you can import a 2020 400R, because you couldn't buy an AuDM 2020 built Q50 RS. As for insurance, you might need to go through one of the enthusiast insurance companies, they tend to insure a lot more grey import models than the mainstream insurers as Duncan mentioned.
    • loved seeing the zenvo on the a1 just after the hatfield tunnel i was the guy in the white van trying to egg you on it sounded awesome and those exhausts glowing red inside insane cheers for the thumbs up tim and tom.
    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
