3000GT 4pot help

**master_visionary** · 10-12-2011, 09:46 PM

If any one has access to a 3000gt VR4. Could you tell me the mounting bolt spacing from the center of each bolt

**mko** · 10-12-2011, 10:09 PM

its the same as 8g/evo. i forget what is the exact measurement.

Hmmm thought VIII had two pots these are the fours and they look as if they bolt directly to the spindle, hub ?whichever the mounting bracket mounts to see --

**mko** · 10-12-2011, 10:39 PM

nope its not a bolt on deal.

Good shit thanks for the link

And this will work with EBC 2g rotors??

**Shadow19** · 10-12-2011, 11:00 PM

Do they work with 6g vr4 rotors?

**Galanttuner10** · 10-12-2011, 11:05 PM

those are a fixed calliper, 2 pistons on each side. not a sliding like our single piston on the AWD dual pistons

i have 4 piston 3000gt vr-4 brakes on my car. i know what it takes to put them on. and what you need. it will not be cheap. it all depends on the rotors and the deal on the calipers. i bought stoptech drilled/slotted rotors

i spent:

$200 both calipers
$120 mounting bracket
$180 Rotors
$30 on misc items/clips/paint

you need first gen 91-93 3000gt vr4 calipers and second gen 94+ 3000gt vr4 rotors. this is the correct combo to work with the L bracket

I must say that purple is awfully sexxy

So bigger rotors = bigger brackets?

no. these brackets are designed to accommodate the bigger 2nd gen rotor

**master_visionary** · 10-13-2011, 12:33 AM

I mean like some 12 inchers or so

**kolio** · 10-13-2011, 01:03 AM

follow this carefully lol

The calipers must be 91-93 calipers (1st gen 3000GT VR-4)

The Rotors to use with the brackets are 94-99 2nd gen 3000GT VR-4. these rotors are 12.5 inches

1st gen rotors are 11.6" or something like that. so you want the bigger rotors. i got mine for a 99 just to be sure they were 12.5".

So you take your 1st gen calipers and mount them to your knukle using the brackets. the brackets only work for the 12.5 rotors. the bracket comes with the washer needed to space the caliper right. bolt everything on and your good to go.

i also forgot the brake lines.

i paid $70 for a custom SS brake lines for the calipers to work.

1st gen rotors on top of the 2nd gen

**master_visionary** · 10-13-2011, 01:12 AM

yes, they are stock sized 2nd gen rotors.

you cannot fit anything bigger. the clearance does not allow. those rotors max the bracket out. there are only a few MM of clearance left.

By they're not OEM what brand?
