i am going to prepare to swap over to FD breaks and i wanted to know if they are going to fit properly or do i need to put spacers?

 

I really have no purpouse in this thread other than to correct your grammatical error in the way you spelled "brakes".



That is all.



(I'd also like to know too.)

 

It's not a grammatical error, it's a spelling error. Kinda like spelling purpose P-U-R-P-O-U-S-E. Anybody have anything to say about FD brakes?

 

You will be able to swap the front calipers, assuming you have a 5 bolt FC); and if you want to use the rotors, it seems that you will need a spacer for the calipers.



Don't know about the rears.

 

I'm just wondering, why ? Did I spell anything wrong ?

I'm curious too, what are the benefits?



and no dave, your spelling looks ok. but I have to ask, did you cheat and use the spell checker? I didn't, I'm waiting for the next guy to post to correct me

 

You can swap the front calipers. They look nicer, so their a complete waste of time if you have 4 pots. The rotors are larger and have different hat dimensions, so they will not bolt up. Corksport sells a 99 spec conversion for the rear.

 

i like how more people cared about my spelling error than the question, lol. well i was just wondering because the JDM clip i had had FD BRAKES it came with like one inch spacers so i was wondering if i needed the spacers for the brakes to fit with the tire on.

 

yes u will they allow for the larger rotors and correct caliper placement

 

The rear hub will have the machined to accept the FD disks. I'm not sure about the front, but the front hubs would most likely need to be machined. Custom brackets will be needed to accept the larger diameter calipers.
