Sorry. To clarify. Its near impossible to buy GTR rear calipers by themselves. When you do find them they are normally about the same price as fronts. However, there are often full sets of fronts and rears for sale at reasonable prices. So im hoping someone who wants the frotn Brembos to team up with me and we split the costs, and both benefit on a reasonably priced upgrade :(

Sure, but you have to come and get the, :)

Yeh the R33/34 GTR Brembos are also 4 piston caipers, just like the R32 GTR calipers. The calipers have differential piston bores, meaning the leading pistons are smaller then teh trailing pistons to help even out pad wear and pad temperature. The pistons of the R33/34 calipers are also slightly larger the the R32.

So thats the caliper difference, the added rotor difference is that you go from 296 x 32mm to 324 x 30mm. Though you will find that almost all R32 replacement rotors are 296 x 30mm .

OK, I will have a think about it, but don't wait for me.

I was thinking a brake upgrade, this might be a cheaper way to go, won't be as good as getting 6 spots with larger slotted disks or something like that though.

Provided you have the rotors and calipers they are a bolt on upgrade. If you still ahve the std stne guard that has to be removed to claer the larger rotor. Most ppl make do with tehst dbrake line as well.

Price...who knows. im not selling them, im just tryign to get someone to go in with me to split up a set. For the fronts you will be looking at around $1000-1200 including rotors. Though who knows how much meat will be left on the rotors

I thought std R34 are 300 rear and the V-Spec (II?) are 322mm rears?

that's what the DBA catalogue says...

PS zac the car is NICE

Correct, but last time I looked DBA didn't have a 322mm rear rotor for a BNR34. The 350z rear rotor is 322mm though.

Speaking of BNR34 brakes, I have a full set for sale with Project Mu HC+ pads and nismo lines... :)

yep i had a set of 322 350z rotors and was going to make an adapter. too hard basket, sold the rotors...

This man is right :P. Mine definitely weren't 322mm when I had them. The was for the V Spec II's only. No idea why though - they were already over braked in the rears with the smaller rotors....

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
