Here are all the rotos specs. R33 GTST use 298mm x 30mm rotors & R33GTR are Brembo calipers

Z33dori · 02-05-2009, 03:41 PM

you could use r32 gtr rotors in a r33 caliper.. tho they aren't the same, they might as well be, uses the same pads etc.

This actually works? I have R33 GTST's and 32mm rotors are alot easier to source from the GTR.

Almost anything Endless is super expensive.

anyone have an answer to if the R32 GTR 296x32mm rotors are compatible with R33 GTST calipers that normally used a 296x30mm rotor?

Just bolt on or something else needed?

Z33dori · 02-12-2009, 02:10 PM

u can just save 1mm off each side of the rotor

search around on the Aussie forums. I just bought some gtst rotors off skyline Australia

shaving 2mm off total would put them at the replacement turning.

Sourcing used is always an option but getting someone to ship internationally is a bit difficult.

Z33dori · 02-12-2009, 03:01 PM

only cost me 176USD..

post the link so anyone can order.

Chances are you found 1 dude willing to chance and know how to ship to the US, then got lucky he didn't send out of spec rotors.

Anyone know offhand if an r33 GTS-T setup will clear 18x9/10 +20 Work XD-9s? I know this question is random and I will have to measure it to know for sure, but if someone knows off the top of their head for sure, that would be super.

yes they do fit. the 32mm rotor does clear the r33 gtst caliper

shaving 2mm will put the gtr rotor at its min. thickness

skyvia25 · 02-13-2009, 03:22 PM

okey guys i just did the Lexus gs rotors on the r33 gtst caliper. you will need to make the center hole bigger (should be like 72mm or take it to a machine shop and ask them to make the hole 68mm with the inside slanted like this / \) in order to fit and add a 1/8 in. washer to the caliper for the correct offset. and like i mention before the 32mm thickness is not a problem just make sure your pistons are pushed in all the way in. ill post pics later when it stops raining.

Z33dori · 02-13-2009, 04:13 PM

well ill be dammed ....

bump from the dead.

where are the pics? im curious to know if can do this for my GT-ST brakes.

alkemyst · 06-24-2009, 03:56 PM

brembo makes R32 GTR blanks right? If 32mm works with R33 GTST 30mm calipers I am going for that route.
