if it helps 33 master is different (longer) and not a great fit in a 32. But I guess you are wondering about diameter?

33 one looks like the photo below.

I am just trying to determine what the 32 version looks like so I can be sure I get suffient parts if/when I change it over.

Either that or I will have to get an AP unit or similar.

Diamter is sorted R32 = 25.4mm, 33 = 26.9mm

I though R32 V-Spec and R33 m/s were the same? I know the cusco m/s stopper don't fit a R32 V-Spec (according to the notes on sites that sell them)

From the little I can make out on shots of R32 V-Spec engine bays the master cylinder arrangement looks to be different to the 33's.

Surely someone out there must have a photo?

I just put a R33 GT-R V-Spec (V-Spec shouldn't make a diff on R33) master cylinder on my car. The external dimensions are identical to the pov pack R32 GT-R, the only difference is that the warning plug is different.

That is usefull info. For some reason when you look at the brake stoppers as offered by Cusco etc they appear to differentiate between the Brembo & non Brembo Gt-R's. No idea why.

Anyway this is what little I have been able to find out.

Brake master cylinders for R32 Gt-R's.

Part numbers are stamped on the end of the master cylinder. There appears to have been two different part numbers available for most build dates. This may be as simple as Nissan sourcing master cylinders from two different manufacturers - Tokico & Nabco.

Stock model:

Build dates from 8908 to 8911

Part number 46010-05U20

Size 1"

Build dates from 8911 to 9108

Part number 46010-05U00

Size 1"

Build dates from 9108 on

Part number 46010-05U20

Part number 46010-05U00

Size 1"

V-Spec model, ie with Brembo brakes.

Build dates from 9302 on

Part number 46010-05U02

Size 17/16's.

N1 versions.

This gets confusing & may well be incomplete.

Early version appear to have 15/16" master cylinder sizes. I would guess (Note: NOT SURE) that they may well have three outlets rather than the normal two for stock GT-R's & have Sumitomo callipers. The number of ports relates to the presence of ABS. 2 ports for ABS, 3 for Non ABS. n Interestingly they appear to be smaller in size than their equivalent ABS equipped stock or V-spec GT-R's.

Any way:

Build dates 9002 to 9108

Part number 46010-02U00

Build date 9108 on

Part number 46010-02U00

The specification is listed differently for these units but is in Japanese on the spec sheet & I can't read it.

The alternate parts listed are here

Build dates 9002 to 9108

Part number 46010-02U20

Build date 9108 on

Part number 46010-02U20

Later versions had a 1" size.

Build date 9203 on

Part number 46010-05U01 for a Tokico unit.

Part number 46010-05U21 for a Nabco unit.

There may well be more options but that is the limit of my knowledge at present.

Sorry if this is a little off topic, but I have a leaky master on my povo pack R32 GTR. I'd like to get it reconditioned, but don't want to do so if it is too small for a 'big brake' upgrade. I'm being told that the R32 V spec / R33 1 1/16 would be better suited for larger piston areas. I'm also being told (on the other contradictory hand) don't bother, the std 1" master will be fine, just get it reco'ed and away you go, std brakes / big brakes doesn't matter.

Any thoughts?

Cheers.

You need to first sort out what callipers you want to run & whether you still want ABS before you select a brake master cylinder.

Keep in mind the Sumitomo calliper has (relative to most other brands other than Brembo) a large piston area.

Calipers are very likely to be Alcon 6 pots. I guess I should get the Alcon piston area stats and compare to the Sumitomos right?

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      In the US almost everything is E10. It can't exceed 10% by much or fuel systems have trouble adapting. At the same time because MTBE, MMT, and TEL are all banned they need as much ethanol in it as possible to boost octane.

      I was mostly jesting. In my experience (and probably only my experience) the R34 GTT physical airbox space is actually too small to flow the amount of power it wanted. By sealing the box, I made it so it could only be fed by the ducts themselves. So you can seal it up and get nice cold air which IS good, but at a certain crossover point: More Hot Air > Less Cold Air I don't think you're at this point. In my case merely ducting the hot air intake with a very focused set of ducts counteracts the fact it's in a V8 engine bay. More cold air obviously best. The solution looks great.

      Nah, the OEM CAI pipe is still installed behind the bumper, it is about 5" x 3" oval at the engine side, tapering down to a 3" pipe behind the bumper where it gets all the ambient air it needs Engine side of radiator support OEM intake pipe "oval hole" that is right in front of the filter My OEM NC1 CAI pipe: From NC2 onwards, below pic, they come slightly smaller at 2.75" diameter with corrugations and a resonance chamber to reduce intake noise, lucky for me my NC1 has the bigger noisy one, LOL   Basically, the "sealed" airbox will just get ambient air from a 3" pre filter intake tube that is the same size, 3" as the rest of the intake pipe post filter, and if a 3" intake isn't big enough to flow enough air for 150 killerwasps then there are other issues The whole intake is basically the same length as OEM, but it is now about 30% bigger from the airbox back through to the new intake plenum than OEM, and the intake plenum is port matched to the head And the intake is now about 30% bigger than my 2.5" exhaust, so the suck, squeeze, bang and blow black magic should be fine, well, to my uneducated understanding of fluid dynamics anyway Talking the the guys at MX5 Mania, it may even make a few more killerwasps as the intake isn't sucking hot air, especially off idle or when in slow traffic when it would be sucking hot air  As for the difference in IAT, I haven't logged IAT yet, as I don't currently have a OBD2 reader, but I will have a play with my thermal lazer thingie next time I take the car out to sèe how hot stuff gets under the bonnet near the intake filter prior to installing the air box, my "assumption is it has to be much better after the air box is in and sealed up compared to what it is now The aftermarket "performance" CAI elephant in the room: Aftermarket CAI intakes typically have the air filter tucked up behind the bumper, with a 2.5" intake tube (the OEM intake pipe is actually about 30% bigger than the fancy pants "aftermarket" version.....WTF), and you need to remove the bumper to service the filter, which is a PITA Like dis:

      Nice one, I'd argue that the white S1 RS260 is certainly the best looking of the Stageas. And yes, fully agree on the forum situation. It's a bit of a shame, but at least SAU is a good place to be. I found the facebook groups to give me FOMO because people were trying to one-up each other and show off in some way. Feels much more natural here. There are people with seriously nice builds, but I can appreciate it rather than it making me question my life choices. Might be that people are more open with sharing how much work/money/suffering it takes to actually get there.

      Evening, wanted to pop in and finally register to say hi to everyone here on SAU!   It's been a while since I've been active on a forum, but back in the day I used to be relatively active on ClubLexus and other hobby-related forums. I'm glad to see SAU is still around, since with the advent of Facebook and Discord it seems forums aren't what they once were. As a recent new owner of an S1 260RS Stagea, I've found so many older guides and helpful tips from SAU that I figured I needed to join and say a grave thank you. My recent acquisition has only become legal in the US for the past year, and knowing that similar car enthusiasts from across the pond have already figured out the kinks and tricks to get these 25+ year old cars running well. I look forward to diving into more of the SAU forums as well as hopefully contribute some info myself for future posterity.   As a pic tax, here is one of the few good photos I have of my Stagea. I hope to get way more in the future!
