Message	There are several generations of the Skyline GT-R, the R32 generation had 32mm thick rotors, but they are not as large, only about 12". The "GTR brakes" that Nissan motorsports sells in the USA is the calipers and rotors from the R32 GT-R. The calipers are required when using R32 GT-R rotors because stock Z32 calipers are designed to work with 30mm thick rotors, not 32mm. The R32 GT-R calipers look similar to the Z32 calipers, but are a little wider to accomodate the thicker rotors. The R33 and R34 generation got the 12.75" 30mm thick rotors, which is what you have. Because they have the same thickness and offset as our stock rotors, they are the ideal candidate for a big rotor adapter kit.
