hey guys, just wondering if anyone is selling or knows someone who is selling R33 GTST calipers with bolts and brake lines? what would be the price of them also?

i'll be using these with S13 hubs/knuckles and new R33 GTST rotors

posted here first cause im not too keen on getting stuff freighted

thanks

Dan

You better also check for clearance with your rims....

They are a big caliper. If you want, I have some you can trial fit but you may be better off with some R33 GTS twin piston ones.

I do have SR20DET calipers and discs that are sitting around doing nothing. They are the same size as the HR31 calipers.

Dunno about price for the 4pots now due to the aussie dollar being bad. They used to go for $200, i got mine for $170 from Japan (including rears and pads) but I think that price would be around $300 now.

if you have some free time i might drop by and see how they go. im morely worried about the calipers hitting the spokes as they should clear the 17s easily. if they foul with the spokes i'll get some spacers for the front.

im also looking morely at the 4pot fronts as i want something decent first time, rather than having to source 4 pots and do it all again later.

im not too keen on importing stuff from japan, just hoping someone's done a brake upgrade on their GTST and has some calipers lying around :P

When I finally get around to getting my braided lines put in, I'll have spare R33 brake lines. Although I thought they were more or less considered a consumable on cars (ie you wouldn't really wanna reuse em....).

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
