R35 GTR Brakes onto at R34 GTR. Who's done it?

Hey Guys,

I'm looking to upgrade the factory 34 GTR brakes.  Currently i'm looking at fitting a full set of R35 brakes and i wanted to know;

*If anyone on SAU has done it?

*Did they have issues with the brake bias between the front and rear and if so how was it solved?

*Is any modification required to make factory handbrake work with the R35 brakes?

*Who did they get they get to make the mounting brackets (preferably in NSW)?

 

thanks in advance.

I haven't done it but know that there are no issues with brake bias (even on track duties) since you already have the BM-57 Brake master Cylinder on the R34..

You may have to modify the backing plate on the rear that i've highlighted in the attached picture.. Otherwise you won't be able to physically fit the larger rear disc..

The rear handbrake issue is solved in 2 ways depending on which kit you buy and from who...

One is the rear rings that are press fitted into the rear of the bell10666034_818413308189102_5230253162384342326_n.jpg

 

The other option is to have the complete rear bell which are normally sold as part of the adaptor kit.. (Old picture) But you get the idea..

I have done the kit on my s3 R33 Gtr and I also have a spare set of billet adaptors to suit, no problems with brake bias and don't need to upgrade the master, backing plates need to be cut to suit to fit bigger caliper.

Can you provide us with some brake porn sir?

Will the conversion fit behind the oem r34 wheels?

 

no, there are only a few wheel options that will work with 18s and they are the volk racing or rays gtc, ze40, te37s.
