r32 big brakes?

[Nick Jeezy]

i am looking into the 5 lug and the big brakes upgrade onto my 1990 240 and i was wondering if it bolts up with out modifcations? i was going to wait but my master cylinder leaks super bad if i dont drive it every day.

[hellfire]

Yes, R32 brakes bolt up.

hmm what about the master cylinder? and brake booster and can i use the stock brake lines?

[plv]

u should be ok with the stock 240sx master cylinder. pedal might feel a little stiffer but thats it.

[omgtofu]

i have an extra M/C nipple if you decide to do the bigger M/C. since i take it you dont have abs... :D

[Nick Jeezy]

nope no abs =) and yea i think i will need to my stock one leaks...

I would imagine you have to get conversion lines just like with z32 brakes.

[Nick Jeezy]

hmm i will have to look into if they make them hopfully i can jsut use stock... or the z32's

[hellfire]

You can mix the two and have one set that works.

Yea, I have R33 gts-t brakes which are essentially the same as the 30mm aluminum z32 brakes (they just look a little bit different) and I used the stainless steel z32 conversion lines.

[hellfire]

Oh I'm sorry I'm an idiot. I know you don't have to buy new lines for Z32, which is what I thought this was. But I don't know about R32. I would assume the same applies.

Sorry for thread jacking but I got a question

Im about to buy some R32 GTR calipers and rotors for my S13
Will this set up fit without an adapter? Will It fit like Z32 calipers and rotors?

And please tell me any more info I need to know with the R32 GTR brake upgrade........

[hellfire]

Yes it will fit.

Might want to check wheel clearance.

Tyler

[NcTurnL]

Awesome! So they will fit WITHOUT ANY MODIFICATION OR FABBING? lol

Ya wheel clearance might be an issue....oh well, imma take a shot, lol

[badass240]

good luck bro

[NcTurnL]

Before i go on and purchase them
Does anyone know the width of the R32 GTR (32mm) calipers? (from the left side t the right side of the caliper)
And if anyone has it, the same for the Z32 calipers ( any of them).....
And ( sorry for the questions) how much space would I need to fit in these calipers, I measured today and got 95mm from the rear of my rims to the brake shield .

for goodness sake, will you just commit! it will bolt up and you will run into little issues. and if you do, you will figure it out. its not hard at all.

you dont need no stinking spacer if you have the right offsett wheels, and its not too hard to find.
