Another Prefacelift Brake Upgrade

[ygoslo]

I think your original find is a hell of a lot better TBH...

There is almost no R&D there.

1. Get bigger disc
2. sit caliper on disc
3. measure distances between holes
4. cut adaptor
5. ???
6. Profit

this is what i might consider one day:

http://tunersnation.com/ZenCart/ind...ct_info&cPath=110_319_320_321&products_id=882

front 3000gt 4 pot calipers
pads
314mm discs
bolts
brackets
braided lines for the front and rear

all for 822USD, shipping is about 100

 

[ygoslo]

See, that's not too bad. Anyone buying brakes to help their car stop rather than to impress people would have to consider that.

 

[Macca]

I was just putting it out there for you guys.

 

[unclepaulie]

haha,

well the 3000gt calipers are pretty much the same as the R33 calipers but they hav MITSUBISHI on them rather then NISSAN...and the way i see it, R33's end up on nearly every nissan that didnt get them and cressidas too, so they must be ok

 

[ygoslo]

Thought they looked familiar. R33 brakes are great.

For that cash(GTO upgrade), you could get a full set of Brembos, no?

 

[Hank Scorpio]

The hubs on the PFL are different to that of the FL though Joel, Evo brembos are not plug and play for them.

 

[dimi_108]

Brembos or nothing

 

[minxy74]

i got a full set of gto brakes calipers and disc's for $400 dollars pretty stoked for that price

fits 130mm PFL with rotors costs over $800 USD

 

[naughtika]

does this also fit the USDM D32A & D33A Eclipse?

 

[Donkay]

Thats right, eclipse front, evo rear, otherwise wilwoods are suprisingly arent adr approved nor legal.. well in qld as far as i know

 

[Ernz1981]

related.........further research shows that an ST205 Celica GT4 (car i was gonna get before the vr4) has 130mm (same as pre face lift vr4) caliper spacing for a 315mm,32mm thick disc.

Couldn't you just use that caliper with a JZA80 Supra TT front disc as it's 30mm thick.....which is the min for the GT4 disc?

Hence you don't need to pay for a dogbone mount?

 

[naughtika]

Ernz, it's been done in Jap, not really sure if what was used.. or how it was done..

as much as possible, owners would prefer a bolt on.. no hassles or anything..

 

[Macca]

Wow, nothing is easy for you guys. I'm glad I have a FL.

 

[peongster]

Cadillac CTS-V brembo fronts will fit.....with what rotors not really sure.....i think ford mustang cobra rotors will fit.

 

[fieldy107]

When you say fit do you mean bolt up with no modifications?

 

[peongster]

Yes it will bolt up ..the dsm guys use them. I think the real technical part is finding the right width rotor. Some people use mustang cobra and some use nisan 370z. I am going to try to get the right info........the Cadillac ones wont fit because they are 6 hole lugz.
