I had a Z32 back in the day and those calipers look exactly the same. Since its an R33 I am assuming it has the revised calipers since the early Z32 had thinner rotors (26mm) compared to the later (30mm). They also switched to an iron caliper in 1993 from the aluminum due to the fact that the Z32 was such a heavy car and warped rotors were a common problem. You might try getting a late model Z32 rotor and see if it would fit too. The only difference between the Z32 and the Q45 is the thickness (30mm vs 28mm respectively).
The forums say the mounting legs are in different positions for the Z32. I have a pair of late model Z32 reman calipers comming this week to find out for sure.

@@CMAutohaus hey, what brake pads could I alternatively run on a 1995 GTS besides oem? having problems finding pads here in the states and I don’t want to ship internationally yet.
@@demondremahoney5310 GTS brake are far more common. I'd go your own research, but here is a start www.gtrusablog.com/2018/03/r32-r33-r34-brembo-brakes-brake.html
You have to remember at one point, Skylines were throw away cars in Japan, so it was cheap to bandaid or "mickey mouse" a car than to fix it right (since fixing it right was more expensive than the car itself). Fast forward to today and that why we see all these mickey mouse'd era cars at auction.
You made this video two years ago and you still helping people. I just found this video and Im glad. I need my brakes done.
Glad this helped you. Lack of info on Skylines still despite how popular they are.
I was just looking around for GTST pads and rediscovered this video. So glad to have options for pads in the states.
Glad you found this video useful!

On the fronts, did the front brake pads pass over the rotors? Or is the whole brake pad on the surface areas of the rotors??
The front brake pads use the entire surface area of the rotor. the R33 GTST factory rotors are like a negligible different in diameter.
What kind of problems might these be? 300ZX weighs about the same as your R33, so the brakes should be totally fine.

I need rear calipers for a 1994 R33 gts n/a do you know the cross reference on those?
Thanks
Should be the same as 300zx TT or R32/33 GTR

No. GTS uses different brake.
@@CMAutohausAny alternatives?
