R34 GTR VSPEC II Brake Setup - Complete

Hi guys,

I have a new brake kit coming for my car in the new year, probably end of January by the time it arrives.

So that will mean I have the current Brembo calipers, front and rear as well as the rotors and pads available to sell at that time.

I thought I'd get in early so that people had time to get organised. My new kit comes with braided brake lines, however I already have some Nismo ones, so as long as the new ones fit (can't see why they wouldn't) then I'll put them with the kit too as they'll be surplus to requirements.

These brakes are the same as the N1 Spec brakes and are only available on the N1, VSPEC II and NUR cars, they're not the same as the normal GTR or VSPEC brakes. Essentially rear brakes are larger, but they are different.

Can't say for sure, but I believe from conversations held with others that they're not hard to fit to other GTR models, but you'd need to get someone to confirm that.

Cost, I haven't settled on a price, but needless to say my new kit is very nearly in the double figures of thousands so I've decided to let the market tell me what they're worth.

Just as guidline though, if anyone offers less than $ 2500 NZD I will just keep them as I'm not prepared to give them away, however I think they're worth a lot more than that.

Pads that come with the brakes are Ferodo DC 2500's and still have plenty of meat on them.

Please only serious offers / questions.

I've just been told that these will in fact fit under 17's. I can't confirm that as fact, but 3 people who are more in the know than myself had told me no problem.

Also made the comment that they will quite easily fit onto GTST's also, just 12mm bolts in the front intead of the R34's 14mm.

Have taken these pics to show condition of brakes for someone else so thought I'd post them here for other to see also.

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
