These are not standard GTR brembos. The caliper brackets are for R33/R34 GTR only.

The F50 brembo kit has larger calipers designed for larger diameter rotors, these are 355mm as opposed to the standard GTR with 324mm.

Yeah i know i was just thinking if it was possible to fit these and what is it about em that makes em for 33/34 only.

Hmm custom brackets would be a bit of a job

As far as I know R33 and R32 Brembos are the same and as mentioned above the R34 brembos have a different diameter mounting bolt.

All that may need to be checked is the current size of the bolts that mount the spacers to the hub with the F50's.

May be best to see what was done to the mounting brackets so that they would fit your car after being an R33 kit.

I will bet that the mounts have been drilled out, meaning that these will now only fit R34 GTT and GTRs. That said they will eaily fit R32 and R33 GTR/GTSt if you drill out the cars hub so that you can use the larger mounting bolts of the R34.

Good luck with the sale...they are a good durable caliper with reasonably priced pads :)

Actually Troy I didn't see Ray make any changes to the mounting bolts or caliper bracket. I had R34 GTR brakes on the car before which bolted straight on.

These will fit an R33 and R34 GTR, R34 GTT... please don't make comments and assumptions unless you know the facts. Cheers

R34 GTR/GTT brakes don't just bolt onto R33 GTR/GTS-t, so if it fits on a R34 GTR then it wont fit onto an R33 GTR

what car were these brakes fitted to?

Actually Matt these will not fit a R33GTR without drilling out the hub for the bigger bolt. I know because I had to get it done to fit them on my car.... :banana:

This kit is to suit an R34GTR, but will fit 32's and 33's with very minor modifications, it will take around 30 secs with the a drill and right size drill bit....

So we can assume R34 GTR/GT-T have the same mounting bolt size on hub and 32/33 GTR/GTS-T have a slightly smaller one.

Hope that clears up everything and BUMP for a great brake upgrade for any skyline.....

Ahh ok that makes more sense, thanks Jack. My point is that I know (as you know) that this kit will fit on an R33 GTR (albeit with very minor modification) which is why I made my comment.

Contrary to Troy's comments, the mounting brackets themselves were not modified that I know of.. therefore yes we can assume the kit will suit R34 GTR/GTT primarily, and the other cars will require small modification to the Hub.

I appreciate everyone's input though, hopefully I'll have a buyer soon :D

I told you something was up :) ...mate im just trying to help, save you from dramas down the road in case the buyer finds they dont fit his R32. LOL you didnt even know the facts so .. hurry and buy the Alcons :ermm:

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
