EVO 8 calipers

[tEknoS13]

hey guys i got a free set of rear Mitsu. EVO calipers. these things are beautiful and i dont really know what to do with them. im wondering if there is a way to set em' up in my s13 since i already have z32 ones in front. i could have sworn that i saw an s13 with these already (or maybe wrx). but i dont remember where. any help is appreciated

[addisonblck]

^^^^ you are a god lol. ok so i need the whole damn drum setup from a 300zx. im sure im going to have fun finding that

[Ruff Ryder 6]

if you need just the drum e-brake and hardware not the hubs, then i believe i can help you out if you can't find them anywhere else. email me and let me know, it's on my profile. Good luck with the project

Damn!Beat Me Too It...

[tEknoS13]

yes sir FREE ..... anyway i got a pic......... sorry i dont kow how to resize

[addisonblck]

damn now im all jealous.....,lol

[tEknoS13]

yea but im still skeptical of whether to slap em' on my car or not. do i really need the z32 hub and drum setup, or can i use the z32 drum setup with my stock 4 lug hubs.

[StricNyne]

SUCH A N-00-B i will school u...1st, you buy new pads and stainless lines2nd u get a six pack of corona3rd you get a box big enough to fit both and package4th you send the box to new jersey 5th i drink the beers and brag about my new brembo calipers

nah seriously thats badass, you could do the brakes ghetto style with a hydrolic e brake OR a staging brake

[tEknoS13]

^^^ 6. u send me $300 through paypal... lol. im going to make them work somehow, i know itz not impossible.

[StricNyne]

just dont use cable and get a seperate lever for rea4 calipers, google the cnc staging brake, or hell even google z32 staging brake and u will see some cool setups, i even think the d2 hydrolic ebrake will work for front and rear calipers, that way u get rid of cables altogeather

kool thanks a lot

[pntang]

the only thing u can use off the evo or sti is the front brembo calipers...and even those needs special brackets...so i would try and sell those so u have money for something else

[xpicer]

ok bro i found exactly what you need check this out , i belive you are good with those

actually some people directed me to some links and apparently its been done. check for yourself. by the looks of it, thats an s14 due to the ruca. i still have freaken 4 bolt hubs

can someone tell me how this works? its only to engage the parking brake right? i mean can i just make a braket that allows me to mount the calipers and use evo rotors (have the rotor redrilled to match 4 lug)

dude,the car posted above is MY car.....you will LOVE the EVO brakes....just rember to get some SS lines (evo SS lines Are DIRECT BOLT ON) And ENDLESS Stock Replacment Pads (~150-170$)

If you want to mount them on your car (s14/s13) you need an adapter plate for the front and the rears....

For the front you can find it on Zilvia.net serach there for "check out my big brakes" and you will find the thread...go to page 7 and you will find a sketch that you must print and go to any machin shop and let them machin it for you.....

as for the rear...you will need adpter plate for the rear caliper to fit....and you will lose the E-brake b/c the inner rotor dimeter will not fit over the Z32 drum/e-brake setup....

alot of guys swaped EVO VII/VIII/IX Front brakes And for the rear go with Z32 Rear brakes (rotor AND caliper b/c the Z32 rear piston dimeter is 40mm Vs the EVO 35mm piston....

JhonC (member on zilvia.net) said with the Z32 BMC he felt the rear brakes are better with Z32 Vs the STI / EVO brembo....

My setup,

EVO IX CaliperEndless CERAMIC PadsEndless SS linesSTOCK BMCSTOCK rear brakes

Will upgrade to Z32 rear's in the next 2-3 weeks...

Sure hope this help,

Kind Regards,

Ali

EDIT :

If need help...just ask son....

WTF ! I just gave you the zilvia link with the whole process including the z06 calipers.

[xpicer]

Front: STi Brembo calipers / Evo rotorsRear: STi Brembo calipers / Evo rotorsBrake lines: Brembo brake lines for STi Brembos

thanks, but to add to that EVO calipers will work in the front but the rears dont bolt up, only the STI calipers bolt up in the rear

maybe you should try your self to double check

[tEknoS13]

dude i dont know WTF happened. i know i posted that before u. i was online last night and i didnt see any of this. besides the zilvia forum u linked to me. oh well.

[tEknoS13]

oh ok u kinda messed up. i was reffering to that dude stricKnyne since he told me about a hydraulic handbrake.

anyway i still dont understand howu are working the whole rear assembly. well i get the fact that u have to get some special brakets to put up the calipers, lines are direct fit,... and u said u will loose the z32 drum. so how are you running ur parking brake??? did u get that secondary Wilwood caliper? because i was just thinking about using a hydraulic handbrake strictly for ebraking.

Are you building a "draft" car....? NO...so go with the Z32 rear e-brake/drum setup and you will win...

b/c Z's have BIGGER piston in the rear...With the Z's BMC you will not cause the brakes to be 90% Front And 10% rear....

Also you will have LONGER pad life (depending on the driver) b/c the EVO Pads Are Not Cheap (150-300$) For Pads ONLY !!!!!

[tEknoS13]

perhaps u dont understand but i am not builing a drift or track car. this will be my daily driver. the only reason why i want the hydro ebrake is because my current cable type (stock s13) doesnt work. i am still building by car and since i got an sr swap i've wasting too much money. i dont want to spend a lot more money buying hub conversions and hunting down z32 drums, plus like i sayd the calipers where FREE. like i mentioned before i want it STRICTLY for parkingbrake

[StricNyne]

hydro e break for the win !!!

[500hpSilvia]

was reading this and thought some of you might like this. i will be getting my srt8 rotors and brembo calipers tomarro to put on the shop s13 I will let you guys know more info once i get the ball rolling on the setup with pics.. this is not a direct bolt on.. so please dont go and buy a set thinking it is..
