r33 calipers on s13?

[Giebs]

will r33 front brake calipers fit on an s13? i was planing on doing the 5 lug swap front and rear, but is there anything special i need for the r33 front calipers to work? rotors, lines, etc. or will just any z32 parts work. and if i do the front, will the r33 rear fit as well? or will the z32 rear calipers work just fine?

[OptionZero]

no they do not fit

guess ur screwed, there's no brake upgrades for s13s

i suggest you search

[A Spec Products]

R33 GTR's / Z32s / R32 / etc are all pretty much the same thing

Fronts yes no problem, just get Z32 rotor / pads and lines

Rears R33 wont work, caliper works and everything but some pieces on the e brake assembly on the R33 won't bolt to the S13 spindle

I'm currently facing this issue, had to find a part off the Z32 setup which is hard(er) to find. Luckily I got some help from some generous folks on this board but still

Buy a Z32 rear e brake assembly for sake of ease

But yeah search around first, google "importnut 300zx" and you'll see the how to

i believe R33 GTRs are brembos which makes the install a bit more complicated, but if your're talking about GTS-T(RB25DET chassis) then it's bolt on for the front. Z32 rotors and pads will work but the rotors are a bit small. R33 GTS-T rotors are 296x30mm while the Z32 are 280x30mm, so the pad will hang off the end of the rotors. It still works and i have yet to find a place that can get me 296x30mm rotors. The rest logan has posted.

Actually the GT-R brakes from the R33 are the same as the R34, they are brembos. Difference is R33 = black w/ white lettering, R34 = gold. Both will bolt right up in front.

The R33 and R32 non-GTR brakes (in other words, GT-S or GTST or wutever) is roughly the same as the 300ZX.

I am told by one R32 owner that the R32 GTR V-Spec got the same brakes as the R33 (he was trying to sell 'em to me), but i could not find confirmation. I believe rotor size might be different, but i could (probably am) wrong.

in any case:
1. search and find the info
2. get z32 shit which is easier and sufficient brake for nearly everyone here

Installing bolts is complicated?

Brembo calipers require you to drill the spindle holes to 14mm (9/16"), so it's a little more work then just bolting them on.

Here is teh above mentioned austrailian website, you can download the cataloge yourself here:

[UNISA JECS]

R32 T/R33 GTS-4 (4WD) = 280mm x 26mm

R32 GTS-T (2.0L) = 280mm x 30mm

R32 GTR (6/89 - 8/93) = 296mm x 32mm

R32 GTR V-SPEC BREMBO (8/93 - 12/94) = 324mm x 30mm

R33/R34 GTR V-SPEC BREMBO (1/95 - ON) 324mm x 30mm

R33 GTS-T (8/93 - 7/98) = 296mm x 30mm

R34 GT (8/98 - ON) = 296mm x 30mm

R34 GTT (8/98 - ON) = 310mm x 30mm

thanks for the help, and not totally jumping down my throat for not searching.
