BCNR33 Vs BNR34 front brake caliper threads

Hi,

I have a set of R33 GTR Brembo front calipers.

They came without the hard lines or any brake lines or fittings but do have the "olives" still on them.

I wanted to retain the factory flared hard lines so i bought a set of BNR34 hard lines with aftermarket braided lines since both BCNR33 & BNR34 share the same part numbers in both Nissan & Nismo data.

I tired fitting them to the calipers but they do no't seem to fit due to a different thread on the caliper and hard line bolt,

Do BCNR33 & BNR34 front calipers have different threads?

Thanks!

Mebbe....but I think he means the thread where the brake line goes into the caliper.  I don't know if they are different but I would have thought 99% they are they same. Maybe see if a tap in the thread cleans it up

I did mean the thread where the brake line goes into the caliper.

Anyone knows what thread tap should i use? threads don't look dirty honestly...

I'm starting to suspect the previous owner tapped the calipers to a different thread since no one encountered such a problem.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
