Brembo 99-01 Skyline GTR Front GT BBK 4 Piston Cast 2pc 355x32 2pc Rotor Slotted Type-1-Red

The 355x32mm rotor dimensions on this Brembo GT Big Brake Kit are a key indicator of its performance focus for the 1999-2001 Nissan Skyline GTR. This kit is built around a robust 4-piston cast aluminum caliper designed to provide significant stopping power and heat management for a vehicle like the GTR, which demands a lot from its braking system. The two-piece rotor construction, with a 355mm diameter and 32mm thickness, helps dissipate heat more effectively than a single-piece rotor, reducing the risk of brake fade during spirited driving or track use.

This kit features slotted rotors, a design choice that helps clear away brake dust and gases that can build up between the pad and rotor surface. This slotting pattern contributes to more consistent braking performance, especially under heavy load. The calipers themselves are a 4-piston design, meaning they have more pistons than a typical factory caliper. More pistons allow for more even pressure distribution across the brake pad, leading to improved braking feel and stopping force. The cast aluminum construction of the caliper bodies helps keep unsprung weight down, which is always a benefit for vehicle dynamics.

When installing a big brake kit like this, it's important to ensure you have adequate clearance within your wheels for the larger calipers and rotors. This Brembo kit is a comprehensive upgrade aimed at significantly improving your GTR's braking capability. It's designed to be a direct replacement for the factory components, simplifying the installation process. You'll notice a substantial difference in braking response and endurance, especially when pushing the car hard.
