Fitting Rear Brembos

[robbieraver]

ive just purchased some REAR r33 gtr brembos for a very good price....just want to know what is requried to fit r33 gtr REAR brembos to a r32 gtr, i know the rotors are different size, more along the lines of bolt and brake hose differneces or do they just bolt up nice and happy to the standard 32 gtr rotor.

cheers...

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.

didn't you put mine on?

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 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.

i can do that my self at work, im just asking so when its time bolt it up i have a good idea of what i need.

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.
