Biggest Brakes on a R32 with 17 Inch Rims

I'd ideally like R34 GTR brakes (front) - I've got brake new R32 calipers etc. to go on the back.

I've got 17 Inch OZ Split Rims and would like to keep the wheels and NOT upgrade to 18s ....

I looked at AP Racing setup for R32 but their suggestion for the R32 doesn't seem that much better than standard sized, car is going to be running 400-450 bhp soon - hence the brakes upgrade.

Any advice welcome ....

These go on GT-R's no probs with large calipers.



17x9 ET17 Look at the X-Face (wheel Well)

I dont own a GT-R so can only dream what they must look like!

Will Stoptechs (what size discs?) fit under the TE37s, Nismo LM4?

PS - do you also know if the BeeR 9x17(recently advertised on another post) will fit.

Thanks

long term planning!
