brakes

[hilton]

hey guys , basically i want to know what is the best thing to do brakes wise with my ke70..i dont reali want s13 coilovers, so whats a good mod to do to get bigger and better brakes on ae86 coilovers?? and is there anyway of muting my stock front brakes on my diff in the rear??? anyhelps is muchly apreciated

Well standard ADM sprinter brakes are a lil bit bigger for a start, JDM 86 front brakes are another step up again. I think mounting your fronts up at the rear may end up being pretty problematic.

adm sprinter FTW lol

Either:

Ra60 struts vented rotors

Ae86 struts with a jdm disc and redrill ra60 calipers

Ae86 struts with jdm discs and calipers

Apparently Ra60 cailpers and discs are the same as ae86 in size, but a ra disc wont fit on the ae strut and same goes for the caliper on the mounting bracket (needs to be drilled apparently to fit)

do u plan on changing the motor?

[Joel-AE86]

S13. Can't go wrong!

[Micknofx]

Would ya look at that cheap and a lil better.... not circut style deep braking material though.

yea its gun ahave a n/a 4age.. and Ae86 struts with jdm discs and calipers sounds good to me

this is only my oppinion, but by the time you buy adm struts/bugs/brakes/whatever, and then you buy jdm discs and calipers (ive seen these for $300+) and then you buy coilovers or decent spring/shock combo (lets say $500), you might as well have done s13 stuff.

it costs a little more but the brakes are massive, and you get the bonus of coilovers, where as you would have to upgrade the springs/shocks to get a similar setup.

thats just my opinion, and im all for bang-for-ya-buck upgrades

Buy new slotted rotors and decent pads. Will make a huge difference. Do the fluid while your at it.
