hey guise;
gonna post up the details , Q&A for the upgrade.
i've swap my ek9 brake system to a nisaan r32 gts-t 4 pot brake setup.
**spoon caliper weights 2.4kg; Piston size: 42.85 + 38.18
measurement; 240mm(W) x 135mm(D) x 95mm(H)
will post more pix soon when its ready.
Q&A
1) can we plug & play the brakes?
nope, you gotta fabricate the bracket n modify the existing knuckle
2) can a 15" rim fit the r32 rotor + caliper
nope, it wont fit; only 16" and above.
3) wat rims m i using? size?
16" R32 GTS-t rims; 16" | Offset 40 | 6.5JJ
4) do i need to change my master brake cylinder?
nope, i m currently using my ek9 master brake cylinder and it works fine
5) do i need to change my brake line/hose?
nope, i m using my OEM rubber honda brake hose/line; but u can opt to swap to a steel braided brake hose
6) the measurements between the 2 ek9 n r32 caliper is:-
height : ek9 100mm | R32 100mm
diameter : ek9 155mm | R32 150mm
width : ek9 210mm | R32 222mm
rotor bell/hat : ek9 250mm | R32 250mm
7) bleeding sequence
FWD is closest side to master cylinder, which is
front right
left rear
front left
right rear
this is for right hand drive cars ; thanks yo jugbugz
