Hey guys i have searched for a while now and found some interesting stuff but still nothing to confirm 100% what i wanted to know

ill post what i have found but if someone can correct anything they think is wrong please let me know

Front rotors

R32 - ??????

R32 M SPEC - 280 x 30mm

R32 GTR - 296 x 32mm

R33 GTST - 296 x 30mm

R33 GTR - 324 x 30mm

R34 GTT - 310 x 30mm

R34 GTR - 324 x 30mm

Rear rotors

R32 - ??????

R32 M SPEC - 297 x 18mm

R32 GTR - ??????

R33 GTST - 297 x 18mm

R33 GTR - ??????

R34 GTT - 297 x 18mm

R34 GTR - ??????

So im guessing the r34 gtt calipers would be different to the r33 gtst calipers correct?

And if all the turbo model skylines had the same rear brakes it shouldn't matter which one i go for but at the moment i have

z32 rear brake set up

z32 front brake set up

im looking at going for the r34 gtt front brake set up to get that bigger diameter but obviously there is no reason to go for the r34 gtt rear set up if its the same as the z32 anyway correct?

also does anyone have any info on the r34 bmc?

I got my self a bm44 from an r33 for now and ill probably install that and see how it is, if its shit house then should i get an r34 bmc or go straight for a bm50 from an r32 m spec?

another question is i have a braided line set up for the current s14 brakes will these still bolt straight up to the r34 calipers?

by the way this is all on an s14 chassis, sorry for all the questions and thanks for taking the time to read it all.

piston size in the front sumitomo calipers is the same so no issues with retaining the r33gtst master and swapping the fronts to r34gtt.

I ran the stock master and rears on my r32 with r34 fronts and it worked fine.

I'm pretty sure the r32gtst has a bm44 as well, it was the gtr that got the bm50

I don't know about the s14 lines. I'd assume they'd fit with some minor bending of the hard line as the s14 got a cast iron version of the 4 pot caliper.

thanks ryan yeah that confirmed it a bit more for me thanks, was just getting some miss info from one site and it was conflicting which to beleive.

looks like i should be right with my r34 fronts and z32 rears and r33 bmc then, shibby shibby i love brakes.

hey ryan do you have that table for the rears as well?

another question i assume the r34 calipers are different to z32 fronts? either they have a different mounting section or the actual r34 uprights have a different mounting section to accommodate the larger discs?

just wanting to make sure i dont have to buy anything else to fit the r34 rotors to my uprights

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
