Sorry Rbsx! 😳

How much different are those calipers to the ones on the s14?

They are lighter than the s14 ones.

s14 = steel
z32 = alloy

These are the steel z32.... 🙄

Thank you Rikert!

The s14 and z32 calipers are the same thing. The only difference is the weight.

The z32 calipers were made of alloy or something and the s14 were made of steel(some heavier steel)

I'm not the expert thats just what I have been told and read.

So anyway back to topic. My calipers are steel four pot. The ones on sale are steel four pot. Now the question I have is with regards to the specs as far as does the Z32 calipers present me with a simple upgrade that is going to work and at the same time improve my brakes?!?

no upgrade at all.

the s14 steel calipers are the same as the z32 steel calipers. same design, same size, same brake pads, same brake discs, etc!!!

the z32 aluminium alloy calipers weigh a LOT less, and came in different sizes. basically they took different thickness discs, but the disc diameter is the same all round. you get 26mm and 30mm z32 aluminium calipers.

R32/R33 calipers are same too, unless you're talking about the GTR's (which had brembo calipers). but there were different disc diameter models of the R32/R33 4 pot calipers. some had 280mm discs (GTS models i think) and then some had 296mm discs (GTSt models).

there ya go - some OLD advice for the NOOBS like hanco!

Oi who are you calling a noob?

you! i'm sorry - didn't i make myself very clear when i said "noobs like hanco"???

Ai wat kan 'n mens nou se??? 🙄 🙄
