Did My Z32 Brakes Today*pics*

That's cool. I finished the swap on mine a couple of weeks ago too with aluminum calipers. I liked the fins on aluminum calipers, so got them from eBay. I'll do the write up this week hopefully.

i love me some white wheels man....so sexy

I have white wheels w/a polished lip (see avatar). Can't wait to get rid of them! It's so hard to keep the double spokes clean, I just gave up. White wheels are not for the faint of hear or the lazy...

hey man, aren't the slots in your rotors going the wrong way?

Good point, but my rotors are going the right way according to Brembo. There's a link to Brembo website in brake/suspension forum explaining about it.

But, recently found out that it's not a big deal which way they are going. Have you seen rotors on AMG cars? They have slotted rotors, but direction of slots are going same directions on all 4 corners.

This is probably an ignorant question. If you have a non abs 89 and you do the Z32 upgrade, won't that just mean they would lock up sooner? Seems like the only advantage to doing it on a 89 is better cooling on the track.

if you have good enough rubber, your wheels wont lock up on dry pavement. good brakes must go with good tires.

Dam bro im loving your car! I need to install my Z32 setup as well, just need to sand the calipers down sothe dam paint sits good lol

eagerly awaiting that write up, 94. for real.

sweet upgrade, and excellent purchase price for all the brake stuff, OP. i need to find deals like that.

i think im just gonna run redrilled rotors with stock calipers and stuff for a month or so after my 5 lug swap. then do what 94 did as soon as ive got a good enough write up to keep myself from screwing up.

(hint hint)

I have 157 pictures to post and that's why it's taking so long. Trust me my write up will be all you need once it's done.

I bought them in Japan when I went there for vacation and brought them back. Try Rota P45Rs or M2 Hanbai DT05Rs. You can buy 4 lug wheels.

I would have bought P45Rs if 4 lugs were available back then. Size is much better. Check out biggie's coupe.

so with the bigger brakes how does your brake pedal feel without the bigger master cylinder?
