BXX Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 The million dollar question is if your gonna sell those brackets and how much. Im interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohc v6 Posted December 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 The calipers are $350 each and the rotors are $200. Plus all the lines and pads and what not. The brackets I would sell for $125 with the bolts needed. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Few questions: 1: there really is no chance a 16 inch wheel could clear those is there? 2: are there any full on pictures of that car with those centerlines, I love those wheels and would love to see a good picture of a z34 with them on it 3: I have 96' front knuckles, would I need to swap back to the early ones to fit these?

CSI_MuNkY Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 That's not the same caliper bracket you made up previously is it Mark? I looks like its on a stock spindle... 96+ I assume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohc v6 Posted December 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 These are stock knuckles, not modified at all. They more than likely wont fit under a 16" wheel. They might though. I know UI have seen 13" brakes under fat 16" wheels before. These are the 10.9 rotors knuckles. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSI_MuNkY Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 so old style knuckle. If you can get it, what is the distance from the center of the axle to the farthest out point of the caliper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOT2B GM Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Hmmm those would work well behind my 18" MCSS wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohc v6 Posted December 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Best looking Z ever Wait till you see the turbo z. You can spot it in one of the pics on the website Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 looks fantastic. I wonder why the caliper wasnt designed to sit deeper onto the rotor, that would make for a larger contact patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohc v6 Posted December 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 There rated at 13" and they are sitting perfect on the rotor. I think wilwood did that cause of the length of the pad. These pads are huge. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP4U2NV Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 SO- calipers are $350 each rotors are $200 each brackets are $125 with the bolts needed They will fit 93 and older stock spindles. Can a bracket be made to use the mounting for a 97+. Then, monte, f/bird, vett and etc all become possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohc v6 Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 I dont see why not, i just need the spindle to use. But yes you are correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 What specific model of caliper/ pad did you use? what gauge is the adapter plate you have made? any better pictures of the mounting hardware? can you get a measurement of the center of the axle to the furthest edge of the caliper?

dohc v6 Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 What specific model of caliper/ pad did you use? what gauge is the adapter plate you have made? any better pictures of the mounting hardware? can you get a measurement of the center of the axle to the furthest edge of the caliper? The calipers are Wilwood dynapro's. The bracket we made is 3/8 steel. I can tell you that a 17" wheel with a 42mm offset has about 1/8" of clearance. Thanks for the feeback rating too .

GP4U2NV Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 What spindle do you need? 97+? 93 older? 94-96? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOT2B GM Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 95 and older Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Thanks for the useless camcover! 1/8th... are you talking caliper to face of the wheel clearance or caliper to inside of the wheel clearance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
