Rear BBK anyone?

[IBoughtASupra]

Hey Mo, how come you didn't go with the non drilled and slotted rotors? Yes, I read you wanted to match the front brakes but it would have been less to get these rotors drilled and slotted than buying it already done.

Are they the same? They are 114.3. If you have a micrometer, do you mind measuring the thickness and diameter of the rotor? Thanks!

Here is the link. It says it fits 2005-2007 STI

dropped the hammer on a set of oem brembo rotors for a stealllll, all i need now is to get it bored to 60.1mm and buy new brake pads and im good to go. Any suggestion on pads? Ive been looking at the ebc red stuff.

updates?

 

[xzeror]

i havent had time to get my rotors machined yet. Does anyone else have any updates?

 

[Mo87NA]

I haven't had my rotors machined yet, but the calipers do indeed bolt on using the existing brake lines. The hardware screws right into the 'new caliper'.

 

[xzeror]

nice! ^ i think this weekend ill go get my rotors machined.

I still need brake pads tho >_< which pads were you guys doing this bbk going to use?

 

[87GWSupra]

thats easy, thanks for the info! off to the junk yard tommorow to price them out

Yea junk yards always got parts for those cars laying around :sarcasm:

My rear brembos came with a set of Project MU pads that are still thick, ill be using those.

Does anyone have pictures of them mounted on the backside besides the page 3 OP picture?? Im just having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that these calipers really do just "bolt on" to the MK3 hub. Amazing.

 

[xzeror]

i would show u, but im too lazy to get the rotor machined to 60.1mm :<

 

[RedPhoenix]

Just want to see the caliper mounted... dont mind the rotors not on

 

[antigram]

yeah me too

 

[xzeror]

mmmmm i mean i am changing out my rear coilovers right now... its hot as fuck... might as well try it on and get some pics.

evo caliper bolts right up, only problem i ran into so far is that the supra caliper bolts are a little too big. They only screw in like 4 threads. Going to order a set of rear evo caliper bolts, and hopefully that take cares of that pics are coming.

 

[xzeror]

Pics for those who are still skeptical , again this is only the evo caliper bolted on.

 

[RedPhoenix]

insane. I am purchasing a set. Thanks

 

[joel903]

Thanks for the pics bro. Totally have more hope in this project.

This is true. I forgot to mention the MK3 bolts will not fit through the hub.

Luckily my calipers came with all of the associated hardware so it was not abig issue. Again, this is literally a bolt-on affair. Perhaps I'll take some time this weekend and get the rotors machined.

Thanks for the pics. I've been swamped with work and having been able to do much to the car.
