hey wassup guys

i have a set of front and rear r32 GTR rotors sitting on my floor at home (296mm diameter i beleive)

looking at doing a 5 stud conversion on my 180 soon

was trying to find out wat calipers will fit these rotors???

will 33 GTST calipers fit over these rotors??

was hoping i could use 33 GTST front and rear calipers

33 rear hubs

custom or s14 front hubs

and 33 handbrake cable

with the 32 GTR rotors for the 5 stud conversion on the 180

does anyone have any info on wat calipers will fit over the 32 GTR rotors? this is my main concern for the conversion as i have heard that only GTR calipers will fit over these rotors

all help appreciated

peace

ROB

R32 gtr calipers and r33 gtst calipers are exactly the same, and therefore use the same rotor....

So yes, you can use r33 calipers.

Use the calipers that go with the rotors, and they will fit.

thats not all correct, r32gtr discs are 32mm thick, where 33gtst rotors are 30mm thick. (refer to dba website)

so im not sure if you can use 33gtst calipers, due to the extra rotor thickness.

i know 100% that you can use the standard calipers off a 300zxTT with the 32gtr rotors.

so assuming i use the 300ZX TT front and rear calipers with the 32 GTR rotors

will the 300zx TT rear hubs bolt straight in to a 180? will i need specific 5 stud rear hubs to match the rotors? i know 33 GTST hubs bolt straight into 180 rear

can i use:

- r32 gtr rotors front and rear

- 300zx TT calipers front and rear

- custom 5 stub front hubs

- 33 GTST rear hubs

as a combo to do the 5 stud conversion?

or am i better off selling the 32 GTR rotors and just buying a complete GTST package or something?

i have not idea if they will bolt up to a 180sx, sorry!

but your plan sounds right i think it would all fit together.

personally i would probably just buy rotors hubs and calipers together if i could, and then u only have the problem of fitting them to your 180

i know r32gtr rotors (the 324m ones) bolt straight up to a 300zxtt hub, so if you got the 300zxtt hubs assuming they bolt up to your 180 you could use the 300zxtt calipers and the discs you have now.

Yes the thickness of the rotors is 2mm different, however like i said they use the same calipers. Which would mean that the calipers could easily use either the 30 or 32mm rotor. The extra 2mm wouldnt mean much, its the rolling diametre (296mm) which would make the difference....

ah ok i was not sure if the caliper could accept the extra 2mm. with z32s (and i assume skylines now or in the near future) you can get adaptor brackets so you can use the standard rotors with the bigger 32gtr rotors i think 324mm, UAS in sydney has them.

    • Both windows operate normally while the engine is running but start to sag as soon as I switch off.  Does anyone know of reasonably priced replacements or other brands that will fit?
    • Actually PowerFC is probably the easiest to get basic data from, it comes with a hand controller and display so you don't need to remember to pack a laptop every time you drive. It also has a PC based viewing/logging option if required. Nissan used consult on these because back in the mid 80s, ODB was just a glint in a standard's body's eyes.  They switched to OBD shape around 2000 (my 2001 Cima had OBD shaped but not OBD compliant port) With the standard ECU there is a cable and software available to give basic data too, I think it is called Nissan Data Scan or s
    • Given by the sheer number of questions about offset, absolutely not. If you had the information formatted this way: Space from R34 GTT hub to outer arch = 100mm Space from R34 GTT inner hub to nearest suspension arm = 90mm. (making this up) Buying a wheel that was advertised as Enkei RPZ5 Diameter 18in Width 9 Distance to arch = 84mm Distance to suspension arm = 76mm 100% of people would know instantly if it fits. They would absolutely also know instantly how close it fits too, and no questions would need to be asked. You would know you would have 16mm from the guard and 14mm from the suspension arm.
    • Ah ok, for example for the apexi ecu I heard that it's pretty limited with the information it can give you. Also not sure why Nissan used the consult port over the obd2, what the idea there was.
    • Diagnosing with and without is mostly the same. You need to know, as Duncan asked, and what conditions. Car hot, cold, idling, driving, if while driving what rpms, is when you're varying, or is it when held constant.   From there it's understanding what can be causing it. Starting with pretending all of the sensors are correct. Which means if it's going rich, why would it be thinking more air is going in than it is, and under what conditions. So things like if only when under boost, it could be be a loose intake piping joint. It's just understanding the system, and understanding when/how the problem occurs, and then if it's only occuring in specific scenarios, what can be causing it.   ECU specifically, if it's aftermarket, it'll have software you can use, for the Skylines on factory ECU, there is Nissan Consult you can use. Most ECUs have a way to get data from them.
