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?

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?

      thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...

      Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.

      Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
