Kevlars30z Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I didn't want to do this but after couple of days searching I couldn't find the answer. I'm close to purchasing silver mines stage 4 brake upgrade http://www.silverminemotors.com/Front-Big-Brake-Kit-stage-4-Front-Big-Brake-Kit-Stage-4.htm but i'm worried that the calipers won't fit under my 15inch Riken wheels. Now on http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php?showtopic=38499 JMortensen stated that the vented calipers fit under most 14inch wheels but during my days of research I came across a thread that said his vented calipers didn't fit under his 15inch rims (and for some reason I couldn't find the thread anymore ). Now i'm in the dilemma to order them or not. So has anyone fitted the vented calipers under some 15inch rims? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91iroc Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Yes, you can fit the vented rotor 4 piston calipers in 15 inch wheels i have done it before. it is a tight fit but no rubbing. By the way it is cheaper if you just buy the spacers and source out all your other parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevlars30z Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 Thank you VERY much 91iroc! I'll look into sourcing the parts and spacers. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy455 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I just had the Toyota 4x4 calipers installed with vented rotors up front and they fit fine under my 15" Rota RB wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevlars30z Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 For the 84 300zx rotors, are they off the turbo 300zx or the NA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy455 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 For the 84 300zx rotors, are they off the turbo 300zx or the NA? I thought the only difference between the rotors is that one is 5 lug and the other is 4 but I may be wrong. I bought the vented Centric Front Rotors, part #CE121.42034 from Auto Parts Warehouse. They work great with Toyota S12W calipers with spacers I bought from Silvermine. I needed some shims and some tweaking of the SS brake lines to make it perfect. John Coffey set it up for me. It rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevlars30z Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 Yup just found the info, turbo is 5 lug, NA is 4 lug. Thanks.. I have a friend that works at Fast Under Car. Going to see if I can get the calipers and rotors from there, if not Auto Parts was my second place to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy455 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I bought my calipers from Pep Boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
