Question Can I fix Skyline brakes??

I have found Nissan Skyline GTR r33 Brembo brakes. Can I fix it on my non-Brembo Touring Z?? Will I be needing the whole brake lining with it or only the discs and calipers will do?? Has anyone performed such a task??


Thanx

I believe it will all fit, but you might need a custom mounting bracket.

the R33 brakes are basically Z32 brakes..

but yes you can make them fit you will need some custom bracket made..

good luck... might be easier to sell those to a 240sx guy...

From what I understand, the rotor offset on the Skyline Brembos is 5mm different than the Z33's OEM Brembos. Not sure if the caliper is the same or not.

You're correct John, the rotor is different which means the caliper bracket is also different.
