also that’s wrong, the r32 GTR is bigger than r33 gts-t, and more effective

they are a 296x32 rotor with internal swirl shaped vents and are x drilled from the factory.

r33 gts-t is only 296x30, with standard vents and no drilling.

after that nissan just uses brembos for high performance, which are clearly superior to all those.

many newer nissans also have larger rotors than these, tho they are ofen sliding calipers.
