Fiat brembo conversion ???
« on: 29 December 2011, 19:48 »
I've got a hold of a pair of brembo 4 pot calipers has anyone ever heard of anyone doing this conversion ? At the moment I'm thinking about getting a pair of Subaru impreza sti front discs and get them machined to 304mm (fiat size) and have brackets made to fitt the calipers, just thought I would inquire before I start

What car do you have, I am guessing at the moment but I think the disc offset will be all wrong.

whats wrong with 305 mm seat disks   seat calipers will likely fit the fiat calipers
all the VW's have gone bar 1.

Cause i only paid 30 quid per caliper and the fiat size is 304mm so hopefully it's cheaper to do it this way and failing this I'll flog them

Not going to be easy to sort really.
