I read somewhere that you can use z32 caliper rebuilding kits on r33 calipers? Verification?

If the pistons and cylinders are the same size, then you should be able to. My brother has a set of r33 calipers and I have a set of z32, so if you dont get an answer soon, I will check them out and let you know for sure if at least the fitment would work.

For people who have done this already.... How hard is it to rebuild the brakes?

very easy. the hardest part will be taking them apart. those bolts are a pain. after that, super easy.
