Message Not really trying to get into a big brake discussion since I won't be needing that sort of stopping power. I don't road course the car but I'd like to be able to every now and then if possible.

I've read that r32 gtr calipers and rotors don't really have any difference in stopping power but due to the increased diameter (32mm vs 30mm on the z32) and I guess the cooling vanes they resist brake fade much better. Supposedly "altogether" but idk how true that is.

Anyways, my question is: would getting the 12.75" or 13" rotor upgrade have the same, better or even similar effect on heat dissipation? Or are the gtr calipers and rotors still going to be better due to the increased diameter?
