I have a 1994 R33 (ECR33) Nissan Skyline GTS-t.

It has R32 brakes calipers F&R and R32 wheel studs.

I need to replace the old worn rotors but do not know if I can use R33 rotors.

I cannot see why not. The way I see it is that even though there are R32 studs on the hubs, 32 and 33 stud patterns are the same, yes???

Can I just go and buy R33 rotors and fit them??

I need help. My car is currently un-roadworthy and I just need the rotors for it to be legal.

Thanks,

Shaun.

What 32 brakes are you talking about?

Honestly. I have no idea.

All I know is when I went to Autobarn to get the brakes, I was told that it had single pot rear calipers for which I bought R32 pads for and the fronts are a 2 pot front caliper that I ended up putting 4x4 hilux pads in, as they were cheaper and "heavy duty". (don't crucify or curse me) as they were the same part number.

The studs are a 1.2 pitch and are R32 studs.

That is all I know. I only had the car for three months and had to do a roadworthy for transfer into my name. That was nearly a full year ago. I am desperate for info. I miss driving my skyline LOL.

measure the diameter of the rotor. measure the height of the rotor (braking part and hub part). measure the thickness of the rotor. then go on this website in the product search bit

http://www.dba.com.au/product_search_dev.php

and see if you can find a match to what you have.

a quick check is, R32 GTST rotors are 280mm diameter and R33 GTST are 296mm diameter.

and the 32 gtr rotors are 296x32 while the 33 gtst rotors are 296x28. You should be able to interchange 32 gtr and 33 gtst rotors.

but if you have 32 gtst rotors you will need to replace them with 32 gtst rotors, or else get some 32 gtr/33 gtst calipers and 33 gtst rotors

      No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.

      God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.

      Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
