Looking at selling a full set of Nissan (R32) Skyline GT-R calipers. These are manufactured by Sumitomo and are an alloy caliper, not cast iron - therefore considerably light. These would make a great upgrade to an S13 or S14. This set will not come with rotors, but GT-R rotors are available from various locations from time to time. Otherwise, a new set of rotors would be ideal due to the R32 GT-R rotors now starting to crack in some cases from hard track work. Aftermarket rotors can be bought from DBA in solid, slotted or slotted and drilled formats.

These calipers have not yet been removed from the car, and will come with the pads (although these are almost ready for replacement). If someone is looking to just get the front calipers, please find someone first who's likely to want the rears (there are a few ppl on these forums that already have front brake upgrades). You should also be aware that to fit these you'll require a set of R33 GTSt handbrake cables for the rear calipers to fit up correctly.

Fitting of these calipers should really be done by a workshop (I know C-Red in Perth has performed this upgrade on both S13, S14 and S15's in the past) and have a braided line upgrade done at the same time to improve pedal feel.

I will post up photos later tonight. Expect these to be available within 2 weeks, or earlier if required.

Price: $650.00 for front and rears

(buyer to pay shipping outside of Perth Metro)

PM me if you would like to take the transaction further, otherwise post questions should you have any.

Couldn't get any decent shots of the calipers that I'm selling off the GT-R, too many cars close to the car, so I've taken shots of some calipers I have waiting to go onto my Silvia instead. These and the ones on the car are identical (except for amount of brake dust on them).

Would suggest to anyone buying calipers that it's best to clean and paint before refitting for the best effect.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
