So a 355mm rotor is half the story. You need to make up your mind over the brand and check the hat offset. Manufacturers use different height hats and different thickness hats...all offseting the rotor differently that means you need a bracket to offset the caliper appropriately.

If you dont have rotors than the link DJ posted is a good option. great quality rotors and hats and can buy the brackets off them.

If this helps it is a drawing of an adaptor bracket for an F40 to R33 GTR rotor (324mm from memory). If you have the offset of the 355 rotor (What Troy was talking about) it is easy enough to figure out the measurements for the bracketry required. The one I ended up with is pretty elaborate and most are much more straight forward. Anyway the trick is to find someone who will machine it for you at a reasonable price.

As iam looking for brakes for my R32 GTR as well ive come across these if this helps

www.ao-ps.com

heaps of different rotors available and brake pads.

Giro Disc

Project Mu

A few people have spoke of trying it but unless you have ABS I say it will end up a bit of a nightmare as the EVO brakes use a piston size as big./bigger than FPV Fords which is waaaay bigger than anything Nissan ever intended for this cars.

+1 Finding someone who will machine at reasonable price and making sure the rotor offset is correct - unless anyone has access to a garage who can do both for you, can be tricky

    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
    • Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
