My front rotors are pretty scored and rooted in my new car (good ol' japanese).. Don't think it would pass a roadworthy and compliance which I am still doing. Its a 1989 R32 GTS-T

So I may as well get some good DBA slotted ones for the track and other fun.

Now it looks as if I have the pov-pack 2pot brakes (no "nissan" printed on them) as I don't think mine is the "m spec". Will this mean I can use the same rotors as any other R32?

From the DBA part database, it lists DBA4909 for R32 fronts - also listed is DBA4963 for R33 which is thicker and larger diameter...

I read a few posts which tend to indicate that the rotor sizes are interchangeable, its just the calipers that can be changed. So why are there two part numbers in the catalogue for R32 + R33 ??

Eventually I will have to upgrade to the R32 4pot or R33 calipers, so I am wondering should I go for the R32 rotors now, or would I be best off going for the R33 rotors for the larger diameter / thickness for better heat distribution??

Yeah, i want the slotted which is the "4000" part of it.. $180 a piece I have found a place that can do them for.

4909 it is.. Just was wondering as because i have the 2 pot brakes whether there would be any difference in the actual rotors. The listing says 1989-1993 so I assume that includes the 2pot brakes as well.

Thanks guys..

No, nothing to do with it. If you look at the cattledog again, you'll see that the model is 909, available in "slotted", "x-drilled" and "4000".

I got some about 3 years ago, plain 909s, slotted.

    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
