GI:A32 JDM Cefiro Dual Piston Caliper w/ JDM Nissan Brake Pads

A32 JDM Cefiro Dual Piston Caliper w/ JDM Nissan Brake Pads
I had sold few of these and just want to put it out there and let ya'll know.
These are used in JDM Skyline R32, Silvia S13, Laurel and Cefiro A31, A32. I do not think this applies to A33 though..

Advantage:
Better Brake Response (2 Piston JDM Cefiro Front brake Caliper)
Cheaper upgrade - Can fit in Stock 15, 16" Wheels (Cheaper; so you don't need to upgrade your wheels, cheaper tires).
If you want a BIGGER Rotor, I can source a adaptor bracket later on.

Please see the photos for your reference:

Hey quick question Sy, would these use the factory brake pads? Also conversion brake lines are not necessary correct?

Can you please post this for me on your website? New Product for A32

Right, regular stock brake lines are okay. I'd recommand to go with Goodridge SS Brake lines.
I am working on getting these along with SS brake lines..(but JDM SS lines are very expensive). Working on 'em right now.

No, they use the JDM Nissan Brake Pads... which will be included with this Dual Piston Caliper Kit.
You can use your A32 Stock size Rotor (OEM or aftermarket).
I was told that these will EVEN work with 15" Steel Wheels (GXE wheels with wheel covers)

Like I said.. if you are going bigger Rotors, it's possible. I am working on getting the adaptor brackets right now....
But you will need BIGGER wheels to make sure you have the caliper clearance.

Buying these Caliper Kits (including Pads) along, they are about U$499+ S/H (my other customers paid about U$550 shipped Int'l Priority SH)..

These are FRONT's only.

I was reading that A33 has thicker rotors than A32, unless you want to use A32 Rotors... this is NOT recommanded... If you are doing an upgrade for A33, you might wanna consider going 6th Front Brake conversion.. BIGGER ROTORS, and 6th Gen Calipers.. but you will of course need BIGGER wheels to accomodate these

Hope this helps!

Are these JDM brake pads readily available, because it would be terrible to have to only go through one source to get brake pads.

Yes, they will be in stock and be readily available

i.e.
Each Set of Caliper kits sold. I will stock 1 set available..

I personally use this for the past few years (finally decided to share my secret.. j/k)... So I usually have 1-2 sets of these brake pads available

Here is the weight for the caliper w/o pads:
4.6KG = 10.12 lb

I may also be able to provide bracket/adapters (as an option) to work with the following rotors (other than stock size)

303mm rotors =11.9 inch rotors
328mm rotors =12.9 inch rotors

If you go with larger rotors, then you would require to have Bigger wheels with correct off set to clear.

I will request for the photo of the top view of the caliper as well as pix without the pads. I'll let you know the piston Diameter later tonite.

I don't have the part numbers but the 2.0 one-pot is essentially the same as USDM Maxima 95-99 Front Brake

I didn't get the piston diameter yet will find out soon... and apologize for the horrible pix below (few salted winter in NJ..really destroy the look of beautiful Cefiro caliper.. haha.. need to repaint it).









This is after many years of salt/winter/rust... haha.. I know it looks horrible, but the performance is still excellent!
