MKIV Brake Rotors?

[Doward]

um... On the rears, why hasn't a bracket been built, to move the caliper slightly down, and IN the proper amount? I don't like the idea of not having full pad contact!

Is there anything in teh way?

Quick and dirty:
Build bracket
Bolt bracket to stock carrier holes
Bolt MKIV caliper to bracket

The only problem I forsee, is the lower arm possibly getting in the way? If so, how about moving the caliper UP the arc of the rotor?

simple:
1. it would be for the MKIII supra, there's no $$ to be made
2. who cares about full pad contact? it won't matter for 99.2% of those that would use it.

no.

if you're going to goto that sort of trouble, don't waste your time w/the MKIV calipers.

FWIW, there is a far more elegant solution. there were a few 1 off inserts made for the MKIV calipers to bring the bolt size down to the MKIII bolt size along w/a rotor shim as well. i've got a set, there's a few others out there.
