where does the GTT R34 fall in this scheme? I am thinking of Brembos but not sure if to worry as I may just change pads and get some braided lines and cal it a day. I will also be swapping with some crossdrilled as well.

If you put Brembos on your GTT you will need the correct size discs for them. I think the standard GTT disc size is 310mm.

trinigt if you are running a standard car (exhaust air filter) the standard brakes will be fine just change the pads to ebc red or yellow with some braided brake lines and some dot 5 brake fliud and you should be fine,if your car has a lot more power then put some brembos on it from a gtr a very good upgrade,but they are not cheap even secondhand they are expensive.

The R34GTT discs are 310mm

The R33GTR/R34GTR are 324mm

The pads are a similar size, but a different shape between the two.

The biggest gain with GTR Brembo calipers is the larger disc size, which dissipates heat better.
