Big brakes for small cash?

[Jimi_Hendrix]

Whats the cheapest way of putting enormous brake disks and calipers beneith 17" alloys on an FC (90 Turbo II)?
 
Can you put the disks and calipers from an FD on? Whats the cost of that for front and back? I read about a guy puting a huge Brembo big brake kit for an FD onto an FC but he had to machine the face of the hubs or something?
 
Any help greatfully recieved as always guys!:Thumbs-up

We have developed a 335mm kit for the FC, with the first kit out of the door on Monday. Probably a little more than you were looking at, but worth a shameless plug
 
Just to add these are £1160 + VAT
 
They include
6 pot monster callipers
335mm discs
Brackets
Bolts
 
What they dont include are pads and lines....but we can supply these if you need us too.
 
We might be able to put together a set of 4 pots...but I would need to get a price for you on these.

Change the fronts to the HUGE brakes, and then swap the front calipers and put them on the back, thus making sure that braking bias is the same

[Jimi_Hendrix]

How much bigger (if at all) are FD front disks compared to FC Turbo II disks?
 
Anyone know the measurements?
 
Cheers! :Thumbs-up

buy a set of D2\'s for £600 they have either 330mm or 356mm discs 8 pot calipers.

I use them on my track car and they have never let me down

We do a very nice big brake kit conversion for the FC.
 
Ive put in some pictures for the 335mm kit, but we can also do a 360mm kit providing your wheels can fit around them! They will sit under 17" rims, but you would need to check the offset on the wheel first.
 
The 360mm are £1265.26
The 335mm are £1155.18
 
Prices dont include Lines (£33), Pads (these are down to your personal preference) P&P, and lastly VAT

Mine has a set of nissan skyline front calipers on it the stopping power is unreal.. I can get clearer photos of the set up if you want to see how its done..

Think this would be one of the cheapest upgrades for a FC and seems very effective

Cheep and braking systems shouldn\'t be put together, perhaps check out some uprated OEM sized disks? although I am interested in the skyline brakes..lol I just don\'t wanna mess up the braking bias.

[Jimi_Hendrix]

Cheep and braking systems shouldn\'t be put together.

Ha ha, no "experimental", "prototype" or "untested" braking systems shouldn\'t be put together. But cheep? Yes thats fine!:Giggle
