Arrow Biggest Rotor That Can Fit R32 GTR Calipers F+R

What are the largest rotors that will fit Front and Rear R32 GTR Calipers, and still clear a 95 16'' 5 Spoke SE Rim.

Front - 4 Piston, barely bigger than 300zxtt al

rear - 2 piston, almost identical to 300zxtt al


Rotors -

VR4?
350Z?
EVO?
STI?

???

and if they make a bracket that can support a bigger rotor on those calipers that will fit on a 240 and clear the se rim, please do tell.

more like 20% of the pad doesn't make contact, but still brakes ALOT better than a standard z32 brake upgrade

Ones designed for the R32GTR calipers are the largest. Nobody makes a relocation bracket for those calipers. All the relocation brackets that do exist, only work on Z32 calipers. The largest rotor that can fit stock SE 16" alloys is the VR4 rotor with Z32 calipers.

The 20% of no-pad contact would be only if you tried using the 350Z adapters with R32GTR calipers. When using Z32 calipers, the pad only overhangs the rotor by about .150".
