Can you answer my question about how your gonna get the brembo's fitted? Would be nice to know is there a easy way to do this...

putting the DC 5 disc on and the dimater of that is thicker then the EK9 disc so i am making a bracket that will push the brakes forward and out a small bit should fit on then when i am doing it i will send you on how i did it if your intersted :nice:

or

need an 11.5" rotor off another car with the right back space to make it work with the ek9 hub. 14mm of spacing behind the rotor for the caliper to bolt up
 
Yeah man that would be helpfull. Pm me about the fitment or make a thread would be a good sticky. Thanks:nice:
 
should be class when its done dude am thinking of doing something similar with my ek4 in the next year

how good are these compared to 6-pot caliper? reason asking, i use to have a jdm dc2 with these WP 6-pots and running 336mm disc. now i have a 9 and want theses on but unsure whether i can fit these behind 16's. i kn0ow for fact that it will go under 17's but will ruin the look and ride. and if that was the case, i might aswell sell these off and get a smaller set up

To be honest i think 6pot is over kill unless your runing crazy power with bost !

they will fit behind 16" alri did a test before i put them on the car waiting on brake discs now to arrive. i have'nt driven the car yet so dont know whats its like
