The GTS-t rotors should fit without a problem, as I know GTR rotors fit on the GTS-t hubs.

I did a GTS-t brake conversion just recently on my car, and it should be fairly straight forward but you might need to source the rear brake lines too. Mine were a different connection and also were too short.

I got some rubber lines made up for $55 each which I thought was an alright price.

I am just about to do this conversion myself aswell ..

I have Front R32 GTS-T hubs 5 stud with DBA crossdrilled and slotted rotors with R33 GTR calipers (painted gold) with Stock R32 GTST brake lines

Rear has R32 GTS-T twin piston calipers and DBA cross drilled and slotted rotors @ the rear with Stock R32 GTST brake lines

I will be using Stock R32 GTS-T wheels 16 x 6.5 " with 40 offset with 205/55 R16 rubber

Keeping everything looking Standard ... less hastles by the cops and will be a much nicer car to drive ... 8 pistons @ front and 4 pistons @ rear vs stock 2 pistons in front and 2 pistons in rear ... much larger discs (more contact area)

Shall be awesome and make a huge difference ...

Question, I want to 5 Stud convert my GTS4, since its turbo now, but i'm low on cash, but rich in time, and have the hubs but not brakes. SO, whats the deal with the discs, what size are they? I have some R32 GTST front discs, and R33 GTST rear disks (and caliper) can i replace the hubs, and use the stock front calipers on the 5 stud discs? Temporarily until i can afford a full new brake setup? I've got 4x114.3/5x114.3 rims, so that wont affect me, and i'm about to change my suspension, so i mayaswell get the hubs over and done with, and i can upgrade the front brakes at a later stage (and go the whole braided route, i have some R34 disks too, so might get those calipers) Which is another question, i have R34 rear hubs, discs and calipers - will they fit?

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
