r33 gts-t calipers with the right rotors

We all know r33 gts-t Calipers are like the black sheep of the 4 pot sumitomo calipers family. Their 296mm x 30mm specs make it hard to get the right rotors to fit unless you got the actual rotors from that chassis. Well look no further and no more settling with the 96+ q45 rotors which you lose 2mm nominal thickness due to the q45 rotor specs 296mm x 28mm. Now you can have the perfect fit rotor, please refer to the links below...


AutoZone

1992 Dodge Stealth AWD Turbo or Mitsubishi 3000gt VR-4 AWD Turbo Rotors

Duralast/Brake Rotor - Front (31004) | 1992 Dodge Stealth 6 Cylinders C 3.0L MFI Turbo DOHC | AutoZone.com_


O'reilly

BrakeBest Select 96159RGS - Brake Rotor | O'Reilly Auto Parts


Clarks Discount Auto

Activant Cover-to-Cover


So there you have it 3 Places you can get the rotors from.

You actually tried this already? Issue folks were having was finding the same size with the correct hat depth.

The Q45 rotors are 8-9mm deeper so the calipers would have to be spaced out to use these rotors.

I would order a set of DBA 4000 series rotors for the r33 gtst application.

they ship from australia tho and are around the 190~ price range each side*

definitely not cheaper than local autoparts store but im sure the race quality's much better than any duralast stuff youll find*

i got lucky my r33 gtst calipers came with rotors. just turned them and there about .08mm before min acceptable thickness, so planning on dba's soon in the future*
