*Z2 Brake upgrade - and issues...

[Disturbed1]

Late reply but the four pots would majorly foul on 99.99% of wheels looking at the pics of fitment of the 2 pots. Its a struggle to fit any decent rims ie any with dish on a BA-BF falcon let alone looking at the lack of clearance you already have with the 2 pots.

i would have to disagree and say u got alot more chance fitting the brembos...

how about a 1995 Celsior 4pot?
can be had for just over $100 from US shipped to your door.

go to lexus/1995/ls400/brake/wheel hub//calipers then take your choice...
i had a set sent from these guys for just over $100 for a pair of Celsior 4pot.
next best calipers to supra 4pot.

disregard what i've said if i'm way out of topic...rofl...
damned just had a look and they even have the supra 4pots...bah.....
they didn't have them when i got my celsior 4 pots....
they're at the same price as the celsiors too...

The FPV 2 pots are massive though. Much much bigger than the caliper on an MA70 Supra.

Caliper would be approx 30% larger than stock caliper and weighs noticeably less.

In relation to the calipers, there is plenty of clearance to the rim face (2cm or so) so there wouldnt be an issue with 4 pots for example.

HOWEVER, these rims would definetly not fit brembos due to the taper inside the lip. A diferent design of 18 rim will easily fit these brakes.

In relation to 17's, you will need to find a pretty special set to strech over and not foul the caliper, but im sure not impossible.

The photo below should demonstrate the clearance to the rotor face.

what are u doing for rears glen?

Nothing planned yet. Will test the setup first, see if there are any bias issues etc then make a call.

Caliper pistons are 2x 40mm, didnt measure the single piston size when i pulled them off. But suffice to say there will be a noticeable increase in piston volume.

I measured what I could of the piston before sending them back to you.
Assuming they aren't like the skyline 4 pots, and the piston is the same diameter the whole way down, then they are identical in size to the stock ones (fluid capacity wise).

I'd say its a fairly common size for most non massif calipers.
