What Are These Brakes?

[samedy-sam]

Hi guys, when i brought my R32 the last owner said it had GTR front brakes and calipers on it with braded lines. it has come time to change the disc and pads but i dont know what to replace the pads and disc and what just wondering if anyone would know what GTR front brakes fit to a R32 easy??? i will get some pics up soon, the caliper is black and has nissan on it.

thanks sam.

sounds like a standard R32GTR caliper made by sumitomo, painted black?

if your rotors are 280mm it's a standard GTSt caliper (still a 4 pot sumitomo), if they're 296mm they're likely to be a GTR caliper.

oh ok so if they are 296 then i just replace the rotors with some standard 32 GTR rotors and pads??? or what do you suggest i should do when buy new rotors and pads for my r32 i dont want to get the wrong ones, and i dont know what GTR brakes the last owner put on.

Is the car for road use only?

if so there is a wealth of info, type in brake pads into the search and it will give you a starting point.

Measure the diameter of the rotor.

post the pictures, without measurements it is the only way anyone can tell if it's actually GTR, maybe 33gtst

hey guys i will take some pics and measuerments tommorow arvo and post them up, and hopfullly someone can let me know what they are so i can buy new rotors and pads

[samedy-sam]

hi guys,

i took some pics and measerments or my brakes today ( witht he rim on ) they seem to be around the 290mm but could not get an accurate reading. if they are 296mm this means they are R32 GTR rotors and calipers right??? if so when buying new brake rotors and pads what should i ask for???

PS the rims are 18 inch

hey guys,

im very certant i have R32 GTR calipers and rotors up front on my 89 R32, now just wondering will most after maket R32 GTR pads and rotors bolt straight in with no modifaction???

thanks sam.

yeah, they look like 32gtr and if you have got your measure right(ish) then aftermarket rotors and pads will fit fine

[VHR32]

Yes, they are R32 GTR calipers. they should have a 296x32mm disc. Make sure you dont get R33 GTSt discs (296x30mm)

thanks guys for the help,

anyone knwo what are a good set of rotors and pads to get??? i was thinking endless pads and DBA rotors??? and what size are the standard size of the rear brakes of an 89 R32? and is it worth upgrading the rear rotors and pads aswell or just replace with standards?

thanks sam.
