R32 Gt-r Brakes - Early Vs Late Models

[xiaorpowr]

Hey guys,

I am friggin confused. Thinking about brakes etc... According to the DBA website:

32R early model = 1989 - Aug 1993

Diameter 296mm x thickness 32mm - Front

Diameter 292mm x thickness 18mm - Rear

32R late model = Aug 1993 - 1994

Diameter 324mm x thickness 30mm - Front

Diameter 300mm x thickness 22mm - Rear

Now the figures on the late model 32R looks exactly the same as the Brembo fitted 32R v-spec.

My question is:

Did the late model 32R come with different non-brembo calipers compared with the early model?

Or

Did they just increase the friggin size of the rotors but kept the same calipers?

Cheers,

Xiao

94 R32 are generally the V-Spec II which had the same Brembos as the R33. I am pretty sure you can still get non V-Spec R32 GTRs in 1994 that use the std Sumitomo 296mm rotor and caliper setup

My 94 GTR (non-vspec) runs the sumitomo setup:

Diameter 296mm x thickness 32mm - Front

Diameter 292mm x thickness 18mm - Rear

Is it possible that a non-vspec got the Brembo brakes? no, because they simply wouldn't fit under the stock 16" wheels, there's a reason why the V-Spec has 17" wheels.

Interesting to hear that your Sumitomo setup uses the above size rotors...

Do a search on the DBA website for "late model" 32 GT-R (non-vspec). It actually gives you larger rotors front and rear.

I know that in the late model 32's they upgraded few things such as the clutch & maybe the rear diff housing... I was wondering if they uped the size of the rotors too but kept the same calipers? Would it even fit under the 16's?

Or is this an error by DBA?

DBA are wrong

not only are they wrong....but I've told them and they never bothered updating it
