Hey I'm about to pick up Evo 8 Red Brembo Brakes with rotors for 250 and I was wondering if I need to make a custom bracket to make it fit on my Z. Please let me know thanks

 

Yes.

 

damn this sucks I was going to get a great deal on the brembo too =[

 

hmm wouldnt it be cheaper to make the custom parks sense your getting brembo f/r for $250

 

Measure, and measure and then get them cut by a local metal shop and you are going to have saved like $2000 on a BBK

Hey, if you dont want those brakes, PM me and Ill take them off of you!!!

uh, if only making brackets for bbks were that easy.

I would avoid it all together.

 

Duct tape and zip ties, they're just brakes.

 

 

It's been tried, and usually not successfully. Just FYI.

 

 

PM lsgear080 about custom bbk jobs. then reconsider

win

 

where can I reach lsgear080? I try searching him but cant find him please let me know thanks

 

There's no s, it's just lgear080

Usually, you'd be MUCH better served by just getting some OEM brembos that bolt up to the car. I've made adapter brackets to fit Evo calipers on a toyota hub (tacoma pickup with a 1J in it), but it's not easy or simple. If you can't do them yourself (need access to a machine shop and a pretty solid understanding of what you are doing), the cost won't be worth it. Especially something that will be so factory when finished. At least lgear080 is doing GT-R brakes, his will be a custom, one-off set. You'd have custom factory brakes...

 

You could...Just pick them up and then re-sell them for a profit, haha

Then put that money towards a new BBK ^_^
