GZ20 Brake discs, where to get? What else matches up?

[De@No]

Hey guys, while my gearbox is broke i desperatly need brakes for my Z20.

Pads shouldnt be an issue to get but where can i get brake discs for my Z20?

I dont think MA70 brake discs match up exactly? if they do are they a straight bolt up?

any other cars match up?

Also i know about the night pager kit but is there any other good brake upgrades for the Z20?

Cheers guys havnt really investigated into the brakes of my Z20 in the 3 years ive owned it ive never had to change the brakes...shows how much i drive it

just had a quick look around, looks like the MA70 are bigger and go straight on. apparently your rotors are 280mm and ma70 are 300mm.


someone may tell you otherwise though

also interested, i think early ga70 rear discs fit the rear without mods
not 100%

Hi,

When running MA70 rotors, wouldn't you need the MA70 calipers too to get the advantage?
Apparently MA70 calipers wont bolt up so you'll have to swap the whole hub carrier over.

I'd also like to know this as I want to upgrade my brakes on my GZ20.

Thanks.

the calipers and pads are the same, its the a70 caliper bracket that spaces it further off the disc that you need to run a70 rotors

someone should start making them!

So i cant just bolt MA70 rotors straight onto it and use my excisting Z20 calipers??

Is there anywhere where i can just buy Z20 rotors again?

just spoke to a mate apparently the cressida upgrade (ba rotors and R33 calipers) will also work on the xZ20 series.

he is 95% sure anyway.

if you buy the caliper brackets off someone prob $70.. then you can fit a70 rotors straight on. which is 20mm bigger and alot more easier to get, slotted etc

z20 caliper + a70 rotor + caliper bracket =

That sounds like the go then.

Just have to try and get the caliper bracket off someone.

So do they pop up very often or is it a rare occurance.

[forey]
