If they're "heavy as s***" they're cast iron Z32 calipers.

Those pics suck. Better pics would help us ID them.

Regardless, those should be fine with the larger rotors. I'm running the SPL big-brake brackets with Z32 aluminum 30mm calipers on a Z33 Track Edition rotor.

Those look like r33 calipers to me. r32 calipers are very similar though, so better pictures may help.

No man. They are not Z32 Calipers. Ill take better pics when it stops rainning. I bought Brembo rotors for those calipers that cost me an eye ball because everybody told me that my calipers were from a Z32 TURBO. Those rotors wont reach all the way up to the brake pad; so there's about 1/8 of the brake pad is touching the upper part of the rotor creating this anoying sound like if u were running out of brake pads.

Im supposed to be using a 296mm x either 30mm or 32mm rotor but I really dont know and thats what Im trying to find.
