R33 discs and calipers will bolt onto jap r31 struts only (off the HR31). You can put jap struts into aussie r31s but I hear they are hard to find? (try justjap?)

Rears I have no idea.. but i doubt they'll go onto an aussie 31.

yea im sure they will fit the hr31s,you can even put brembos on the hr31s.

But why wouldnt they fit the aussie r31s?

Why wouldnt they fit Oz 31's?

R33 discs and calipers will bolt onto jap r31 struts only (off the HR31).

For the reason in the post made before your one. You need Import Struts

and then the dics's re-drilled to suit the 4 stud pattern, or do a hub conversion and make it a 5 stud.

And as for putting Brembo's on them... yeah you can put them on there, but you'd need a custom rotor as there is not enough clearance with the 330mm GTR discs.

Otherwise you can use spacers, but i would be advising strongly against that cheaper... and potentially nastier option.

How do i know all this?

I have a 5 stud conversion and R33-t/32GTR brakes on my HR31GTS-R

And R32GTR wheels.

To get the wheels to properly clear the strut i need a custom hat as part of a two piece rotor.

But then, i only do things correctly. And that costs $$$

You may need a spacer between the hub and rotor with the 33 parts to make the rotor line up with the calliper correctly.

As above, they bolt up to the HR31 front strut/hub assembly. Find these, and you're set.

For big rears, i have a custom setup on my aussie 31. PM me if you want info on it.

the spacer as i said... can be avoided.

but it will cost you $$$.

and im not talking $500 either.

For the rear, i have R32 i think... or even R31 Imports... cant remember.

but i chucked a slotted DBA 4000 club spec rotor on the rear a few months back.

And i have not had $$$ to do the front yet.

all i can say is the rear almost out brakes the fronts :P

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
