Im not sure about the 33 but I have just converted my rear set up on my ceffy to 2 pot calipers and discs off a 300zx just redrilled to a 4 stud.

a few things i need to do to get them on was of course redrilled to a 4 stud, the brake lines made longer and the stone gaurd behind the disc needs to be either cut off or bashed back but cut it off for a more cleaner look. if your feeling enthusiatic get a sheild made up bigger to replace the one thats been hacked off

yes yes yes . this is identicle to what i have done on my \ceffy. r33 non turbo 4 stud rotors slotted (same dimensions as r32 turbo and the 4 spot r32 gts-t calipers. bolt up dot com , all you need is a costum set of stainless steel braided lines to suit ceffy (s13) to r32 gts-t calipers. i got adr approved ones for $200 and something from maltech. on these forums

do it, works really well

ps. no cutting, bashing, smashing, modifying at all - just custom brake lines and bolt on

I have heard that you need to replace the master cylinder on a std non turbo Cefiro to a R32 turbo/R33 turbo or the brakes may be a bit spongy when you upgrade to the 4 pot calipers. I dont know if thats right or not because the master cylinders are basically the same?

Just bought some R33 non turbo disks and R32 turbo calipers last night for my Ceff, will attempt to fit them tonight....

I bought my R33 NA disks off NissanSilvia.com from a private seller as well as some R32 turbo calipers for $300.

Having some trouble bolting my calipers up thoug, they do bolt straight up but i have no brake perssure in my brake lines with the calipers asn R33 disks bolted up (brake pedal straight to the floor) :(

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
