Looking for some clarification, as have had several inputs on this.

 

NA disks, I am told that they are thinner than TT disks. This means that I need to upgrade my calipers in order to fit TT disks on my car.

 

Then I was told that the TT disks might not fit on my hubs, so I might need to upgrade the hubs as well (getting expensive this)

 

I spoke to 3G and he was of the opinion that the pre '90 cars (mine is an '89 Z32) were fitted with 28mm thick disks as opposed to the 30mm post '90 zeds

 

Looked at the online manual, it quotes australian cars as 28mm , europe as 30mm (and Japs????)

 

Any clarification on any or all the above points would be welcomed

 

Cheers

some NAs do have 22mm discs, not sure if this is year dependant though.

 

one of the SXOC boys bought a set of new 30mm discs, and a set of z32 calipers, wasn't until he went to fit them he realised that the calipers were NA and hence no use due to only taking a 22mm disc.

 

I''m not sure about whether TT calipers and discs will bolt straight onto the NA Z32, but would be surprised if not as they bolt straight onto all S13's which run either 257x22 or 280x22 discs and single poit calipers as std.

cheers for the answer jez, did you have to add 22mm into the equation, I'm confused enough as it is mate :)

I am pretty certain that the only difference between the NA and TT brakes is the disc thickness NA 22mm, and TT 30/28mm. They are the same diameter.

 

I also know for a fact that the TT 4 pots will take upto 32mm rotors.

When i went to the local nissan dealership here in canada they told me that all the brake parts are the same part numbers, cuz I was going to upgrade to tt brakes

You could keep the TT disks and swap the rest of the car to fit them... ;) :D

Nah mate, I want a car I can drive all the time, not just when the turbos are cool, the timer is working, the boost gauge is set, the AFR is happening, the hoses are squared away etc etc etc .... and pluto is in my starsign :)
