Bought these with the intention of running them on my car. Though with a 343mm rotor it means that wheel clearance is going to be very tight on a 17" wheel. (The calipers are bloody big)

Rather then go smaller 332mm rotor want to go to a smaller Project U caliper that will work better with the 343mm rotors

Brand new still in box, they are the big daddy of the 4 piston caliper world. Can run a large range of diameter rotors and use 44mm and 40mm pistons

Price drop - $1800

Want $2050 for them. (was $2300) Have now purchased other brakes so ... :)

Can also supply radial mounts to whatever brand and diameter rotor you want to purchase and run

Well it appears i need these for an upcoming rally so will be throwing them on the car with 340mm rotors. So if you are interested i will gappily part with the rotor, caliper and adaptor setup once my new brakes arrive...the calipers and rotors will be 1,000kms old so will be cheaper. So make an offer

But it wont be a common 17" wheel to gfit the 355mm rotor.

I just sold the 332x32 mm rotors, so if you are after rotors i can track down some. The best bet is to grab some CSC rotors locally and i can get the adaptor made up. With the Aus dollar now sucking against the US/Yen buying locally is probably cheapest.

I now have 3 set of wheels and 2 brembo setups...need to sell some of this gear as i have too much money tied up in stuff lying around trying to get a usable package for my GTSt :laugh:

sorry if this has been answered but would these bolt straight onto a r33/34 gtr 330mm rotor and hub without needing custom brackets? How much bigger are they compared to the 33 brembos in overall size (not the piston size but the outside caliper size)?

They physically are much larger making them far more rigid. They run exernal bridge line making the brake fluid run much cooler. Lastly they run larger pistons giving you more braking torque. Completely different animals. The GTR Brembos are not that different to the Sumitomo calipers on the R32 GTR, the F50 calipers are completely different

They dont need "custom" brackets, but they do need brackets that are sized depending the rotor you want to run. Some kits have them used on the std Nissan Brembo R33 GTR rotor which is 324mm. Though typically the F40 caliper is preferred for this application.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
