New F50 Brembo Calipers

[Roy]

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

i fit them over 355mm rotors and 17's dont be afraid of the linisher. not much needed.

15mm hat ofset. 0 disc offset

both fitted nismo lm gt2 and koya driftecs. (r32gtr)

brembo f50 caliper

Damn awesome brakes, if i had the $$$ would buy for sure

[MADGT4]

Dang

If i had the cash i would try to snap this up!

Good luck with the sale!

Roy harden up and put them on

[Roy]

Well. They make nice paper weights but not sure if thats the best use for them

[Roy]

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

[ferni]

What discs could you run with these on a R33 GTR troy?

[Angus Smart]

I love my f50's they stop very well!

[Downforce]

Yes with decent pads they pull up very hard

[D3bb4]

ever get enough heat into the pads to be effective?

[dazmo]

These are a great upgrade for GTR I run a set of these on my R33GTR and they work a treat and is a good price as well good luck with the sale mate.

Hi Roy;

so you'll be selling caliper adapters, calipers and rotors? with 340/343 mm rotors, I assume the caliper adapters will be for that size? i want to run 355s.

[T04GTR]

easily adapted using 7mm spacers on the caliper bracket. and a 355 rotor under a 17 inch wheel is posible. just like mine

[Roy]

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

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)?

[Roy]

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.

nice info Roy thanks alot, i was asking the size more for trying to judge wheel clearance issues than the actual functioning of the calipers

[Roy]

If you need to know wheel clearances i can send you 1:1 drawings that you can cut out onto paper then cardboard so you can use that as a template in your wheels. Will obviously need access to an A1 pritner though
