Thread: Brake project and gauging interest

Picked up some 3000gt VR4 calipers from Doug (thanks man). Anyway, I'm having a shop up in P-ville make some adapter plates based on the blueprint on Dsmtuners. I figured I'd ask to see if anyone else is interested while I'm submitting the design. Please keep in mind that the brackets I'm having made will be designed to fit 13.5" Cobra Rotors, so if that's to big for your wheel setup or you dont want to use spacers, then you should skip these plates. I'll be posting details later for anyone interested.

Here's some cleaned up shots:





A comparison shot of a stock DSM caliper and the VR4

3000gt brakes are the same as gsx caliper correct?

no...3000gt calipers are 4 pistons...

Savo's right. The VR4 calipers are 4 pistion. The GSX and 3000gt SL N/A is 2 pistion.

LEE! When did you get a GSX?! Sweet man, I can't wait to see it, hopefully you bring it down for the Sac-Dsm reunion lol. I should have mine up and running again so it should be pretty sick to see all 2g's gathered around again. I haven't seen 2 2g's parked next to each other for about 3 years now lol (not counting Savo's Garage) :P But I think the top of the caliper will definetly clear, its just how thick of a plate you use. I'm using 3/8's just in case, though they say the thicker the better, I really don't like spacers unless I absolutly have to. If your interested though, I'll be getting prices soon. Maybe we can get a discount if we can get 10 pairs made.

oh holy sh!t. hmmm. im waitin on 1000 bux from the govt and im orderin dsm link with it. once i get a new clutch will be god only knows when i can get this beast back together and hopefully starr her up.

2g is not havy as 3000gt so those calipers will stop 2g mutch better than 3000gt.

i'm interested, i'll give you a call manny.
