ebola Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Try gtst M-spec... the rotors are M-spec, so the calipers would be too.... if you want to upgrade to gtr brakes... you are gonna need more than just the calipers.

blind_elk Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 If you want to upgrade the front brakes, fit some slotted rotors and braided brake lines. I don't think the calipers are all that different; they take the same pads as the RB20DETs.

sav man Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 the GTR calipers take 296x32 rotors, and Gts-t takes 280x30. the GTR calipers a a little bigger i think.

Birth Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I've done this. The GTR caliper is very similar to a GTSt / GTS4 caliper except it has longer brackets between where it bolts on and the caliper. You will replace the caliper and the disc which is a very simple bolt off-bolt-on proposition. The brake pads are interchangeable if you get dodgy pads when you buy the new brakes. I however wouldn't bother. I noticed no benefit in performance, but they do look slightly better as the disc fills out the rim a little better. I guess it works out relatively cheap as the GTSt calipers are readily sellable to S13 owners. R33 GTS25t calipers look exactly the same as R32 GTR (I think the disc is mean to be slightly wider).
