hey wassup guys

i have a set of front and rear r32 GTR rotors sitting on my floor at home (296mm diameter i beleive)

looking at doing a 5 stud conversion on my 180 soon

was trying to find out wat calipers will fit these rotors???

will 33 GTST calipers fit over these rotors??

was hoping i could use 33 GTST front and rear calipers

33 rear hubs

custom or s14 front hubs

and 33 handbrake cable

with the 32 GTR rotors for the 5 stud conversion on the 180

does anyone have any info on wat calipers will fit over the 32 GTR rotors? this is my main concern for the conversion as i have heard that only GTR calipers will fit over these rotors

all help appreciated

peace

ROB

R32 gtr calipers and r33 gtst calipers are exactly the same, and therefore use the same rotor....

So yes, you can use r33 calipers.

Use the calipers that go with the rotors, and they will fit.

thats not all correct, r32gtr discs are 32mm thick, where 33gtst rotors are 30mm thick. (refer to dba website)

so im not sure if you can use 33gtst calipers, due to the extra rotor thickness.

i know 100% that you can use the standard calipers off a 300zxTT with the 32gtr rotors.

so assuming i use the 300ZX TT front and rear calipers with the 32 GTR rotors

will the 300zx TT rear hubs bolt straight in to a 180? will i need specific 5 stud rear hubs to match the rotors? i know 33 GTST hubs bolt straight into 180 rear

can i use:

- r32 gtr rotors front and rear

- 300zx TT calipers front and rear

- custom 5 stub front hubs

- 33 GTST rear hubs

as a combo to do the 5 stud conversion?

or am i better off selling the 32 GTR rotors and just buying a complete GTST package or something?

i have not idea if they will bolt up to a 180sx, sorry!

but your plan sounds right i think it would all fit together.

personally i would probably just buy rotors hubs and calipers together if i could, and then u only have the problem of fitting them to your 180

i know r32gtr rotors (the 324m ones) bolt straight up to a 300zxtt hub, so if you got the 300zxtt hubs assuming they bolt up to your 180 you could use the 300zxtt calipers and the discs you have now.

Yes the thickness of the rotors is 2mm different, however like i said they use the same calipers. Which would mean that the calipers could easily use either the 30 or 32mm rotor. The extra 2mm wouldnt mean much, its the rolling diametre (296mm) which would make the difference....

ah ok i was not sure if the caliper could accept the extra 2mm. with z32s (and i assume skylines now or in the near future) you can get adaptor brackets so you can use the standard rotors with the bigger 32gtr rotors i think 324mm, UAS in sydney has them.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
