When i did my converstion, everything just bolted straight on. I did need to slightly bend out the protective metal which goes around the rotor.

When I fitted 33 GTR Brembo's onto the 32 GTR

I needed:

longer brake line hose approx. 30mm, went to Pirtek to get them made up

300 mm rotors

caliper mounting bolts are a different thread, any bolt place will have them. Make sure that they are Hi Tensile steel (8.8)

brake line and brackets are the same.

Hope that helps

PS. I changed the brake seals aswell for peace of mind.

yes i did :D but you had a bracket and steel lines to fit your larger rotor, while i was doing yours i never checked to see if the brembo just fits with minimal fuss. Just didnt have the time a work, its organized madness. how is your beast sounds like you need to try some changes with setup...

Markk- so the 300 by 22 rotor and brembo caliper fitted up with the same bolts from the 32 with all the steel hoses also from the 32...

nice one thanks for the info, just unsure of the size and pitch of the bolt. is it 8.8mm by what pitch.

8.8 is a Hi Tensile bolt rating. The thing is to take the caliper to the bolt place and they will find the correct bolt for the caliper.

Everything bolted right up...

But having said that, I am assuming (and could very well be wrong) that 32 gtr Vspec brembos are the same as 33 gtr brembos.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
