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?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
