S13 Brakes (front calipers)

Post by Assassin »

Hey guys got a bit of a prob, i got the ebc sport rota OEM brake disc replacements and yellow stuff pads for me 200sx s13..
So it turns out the rears are fine but the front disks and pads are to big, witch is not a train smash, cause the way i see it it basically a brake upgrade at the mol.
Witch bring me to my question: To get this to work i will need bigger front brake calipers.

Can anyone help me out in pointing me in the right direction what calipers and maybe where i can get some?

Any help would be great.

The early S13's had a 256mm disk. The rest were 280mm. The pads are the same but you need the bigger calipers to fit over the disks. I do have a couple of calipers if you need.

The calipers are exactly the same just the bracket that holds the calipers are different.
