Fabrication - Bracket To Fit R34 Gt-t Caliper To

[INASNT]

To clear things up gtr 324mm front rotors will make the gts-t caliper sit out only 14mm closer to the rim

[ed]

dnt know.

UAS is telling me the caliper will sit 28mm out towards the rim not 14mm!! :confused:

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

with 33 calipers it would be 28mm

324-296 = 28mm

with 34 calipers it would be 14mm

324-310 = 14mm

I wonder if the 14mm different would be worth the effort?

[INASNT]

ed those are the diameter differences. I al talking about the distance the caliper sits out more towards the rim with these gtr calipers as your changing the bolt locations as per what roy said.

324 - 296mm is 28mm sure. But thats the difference in daimeter. You only offset the caliper to suit the radius. So only moves them out 14mm. And since you are only moving them out 14mm, you cant use the same centre holes so need bracket like yours which will also roll the caliper around further so that it can be bolted back in place. So the caliper will now be mounted closer to the 9 o'clock position, where as std they are more up around the 10 o'clock position of the rotor.

So u need wheel clearnce around your current rims or get a bigger offset front rims.

RUS (sau member) recently got imported a r33 with brembo 4 pots and huge rotors and he cant get the 17 inch rims with the semi comps he used on the stock 4 pot gts-t calipers to fit on

Its sounds like some people are playing with things they don't understand lucky it's only the brakes

I would have thought any aftermarket bracket would make the car instantly unroadworthy... They come with any ADR compliance?

ADR compliance? Whats that :lol:

[omrae]

They might be ADR compliant but who's going to spend $3000-$4000 getting a $50 part adr'ed, you'll what to sell a hell of lot of them

[predator]

ADR compliance? Whats that laugh.gif

yeah, i know.. just if you were in accident or something.. they could claim some b.s. about the brakes contributing to the accident, even if they were inclined to turn a blindy to the rest of the addons.

Well, it doesnt take pages of failure analysis, or stress & load calcs to conclude my bracket is massively over engineered....so im not fussed, but can undertand the reservations of others

there's a few people who know a bit about engineering in this thread mate.

[omrae]

Well i did say SOME not all

MEH, most of us were past that stage years ago

Like anything with cars, its not hard to get right... but its easy to get wrong
