If they can't confirm they are the correct calipars then don't buy them. Has to be the specific calipars aka r32 gtst - some sellers try to say they are all the same r33 etc however they are not.

I paid $150 skyline spares in Sydney plus postage, received the next day.

Thanks Tony.
 
As mentioned for the 315mm kit the callipers to use are:-
 
R32 GTST
Z32 300ZX 
 
Both 30mm types.
 
I am looking into the use of alternative discs and calipers using these brackets but for the time being the above mentioned calipers is what the setup is designed for.

Just confirmed the gtr wheels don't clear the rear upgrade. New wheels time...





Hi Eric
Was that with 22v calipers and rx8 rotors.
Thanks

Yes. 22v calipers and rx8 rotors do not clear standard 32 gtr wheels

Thanks Eric
Wondering if I go with 22v calipers and rotors from the 3gen is that enough upgrade to match the gtst front

Danti:-
 
This may be a good option for you instead of the 323mm RX7 setup to fit under your wheels at the rear.

For the guys that done the front Nissan kit with r32 gtr wheels, did you have to modify the Nissan calipers to make them fit. I thought everything should bolt on with the adapters.

Hi Danti,
 
As i mentioned to you last night with your PM all modifications are outlined in the instructions supplied with the kit you purchased.

That's correct. I just never looked for the instruction because here on the forum there was never mentioned that we need material removed to make it fit. I just assumed it's just bold them on. All good everything is fitted including rx7 rear kit with 22v calipers. The only problem I have is locking up . Trying to learn the new setup for now with out bias.
But when there is no lock up the kit works very well. Also I can confirm Rx7 rotors with 22v calipers do clear with 16" GTR wheels.
