R34 N/a Discs / Pads - Standard Replacements Or Upgrade?

[N-DAWG]

Hi everyone

I'm in pretty bad need of a new set of discs and pads for my R34 25GT Sedan (N/A)

From what I've been able to find, the Turbo has bigger brakes, so I would assume the pads are also different size?

Can I fit GTT brake pads? Or would I need to replace rotors as well and calipers?

If so besides the rotor and pad what else would i need?

I imagine the calipers would need changing as well.

I don't have performance modifications at the moment, but would be looking to possibly do a turbo conversion late next year, so I guess the next question is, should I replace with standards now, or replace go straight to the Turbo spec Brakes.

Cost is a bit of an issue at the moment as I've also got camber and castor kits on the way to be fitted, and new tyres fairly soon...but I'm prepared to spend a little more to get better results when it comes to safety and handling.

Thanks guys!

Cheers

Nathan

25GT brakes are smaller then GTT so brake pads won't fit.

you will need pads, calipers & rotors.

i dunno if 33 gtst brakes fit but if they do, that might be a cheaper option and more easy to find.

R34 GT (non-turbo) have the same rotors as the R33 gtst, but the pads and calipers are different.

youll have to change something if you want turbo calipers.

unless youre going for the look, Id say just get standard sized DBA rotors all-round, but invest some money is high performance brake pads, and thats all the stopping power youll need. Get some ADR approved braided brake lines as well.

At the moment im upgrading to turbo calipers, rotors and getting braided brake lines put in. I just want the pretty red painted calipers sticking out

[dori34]

if you just wanted the pretty red calipers then why dont you just paint your standard GT calipers?

cheaper too! lol

[SHANE666]

I ended up just getting standard discs on the front for now. I needed them asap so fronts have been done. I still need to do rears though.

Luke, how much would you be looking at for your brakes? What size are they?

[Luke_ENR34]

they are single pot non-turbo brakes. Would rather sell the whole front and rear together. no idea how much they are worth.
