GTIR Brakes

[Pavel]

Are GTI-R front brakes a direct fit? What discs do you use, as I believe the GTIR ones are 5 stud?

the pulsar are 4 stud i had them on my micra or even almera gti breaks will fit all you need it 2 1mm washers inbetween the carrier and the hub

What are the 1mm for? I wouldn't have thought it's necessary with a sliding piston design caliper?

Also do you use the sunny discs?

hmm.. 280mm here I come.

Because otherwise the carrier hits the disc , nothing to do with the caliper

 

[jim_bling]

you need the washer to center the carrier and pads to the disk if not the pads would wear down faster than the other and give un-even breaking

 

[Pavel]

I see, that makes sense! Any 1mm washer will do?

Do you use GTI-R brake discs? I suppose these will fit under 14-15" wheels?

 

[jim_bling]

yes pads and disks mate and they fit under 15`s no probs and will fit under certain 14`s

almera gti and sunny/pulsar gtir front brakes are the same..

you need calipers, discs and pads and washers for clearance.
