I recently purchased my first bnr32 and I am pumped!! It has nismo coilovers but otherwisebis pretty much stock. I will be adding power to it soon, and found a good deal on some r33 brembo calipers only. I have a few questions. I have searched ALOT but havent found an answer yet. 

1. What rotors do i use? Im wanting 2 piece rotors and want to know what to buy. 

2. What brake lines do i go with? Im wanting steel lines and dont know if i will need custom or not. 

3. What brake master cylinder? My car is a 94 and im pretty sure it has abs so im think the bm57? Will a 300zx one work or does it have to be an r33 or r32 one? 

Thank you for the help!

Well, this has kind of been covered here before, and I don't know where you are because you didn't fill in the location field of your profile....but answers are:

1. You need to move from 296mm rotor to 324mm rotor for r33/r34 gtr. eg DB5928 for 2 piece slotted.

2. Standard lines fit fine. R33/34 brembos were standard fitment on R32 vspec I and II models too.

3. Keep the standard master cylinder, it will be fine. 

You may need to trim or push back the backing plates behind the rotors, but otherwise that is a straight fit upgrade to an r32.

You will need 326mm rotors. DBA have both 1 piece and 2 piece if you have money to burn.

I can help with rotors and pads please DM.

typo sorry :(

DBA4928 = DBA4000

DBA5928.1S = DBA5000

hey m8 mise well install a new set of pads while you got the caliper out. will last a very long time if so. might even be good time to have the calipers powder coated with a new Brembo decal keeping her clean! I wish I did this with mine before I got horny and just threw them on for 50 thousand km lol they have become faded and need a facelift. the backplate for caliper I had to cut a bit. here's a pic of mine installed with regas. took me 1.5 hour per side taking my time.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
