I wanted to ask if anyone has successfully mounted these calipers, i read it on one of the threads but i didn't find out if they finished it. i bought a set of calipers and lined them to my knuckle but the bolt holes don't line up 100% it looks like i would have to drill the hole a bit more and thread the knuckle. aside from that the 4runner calipers wont accept a rotor over 21mm according to the specs. i want to know if any one actually mounted those on a 6thgen or it's just speculation. i have already tried a vw rotor but no dice. i'm going to try a 04 sti rotor which is 5/100 and it looks it will sit the rotor further back in and might work with the caliper. i want to know if it's necessary to trim the caliper mounting points.

QUOTE understand, the upgrade to GT4 brakes requires GT4 rotors which are bigger than GT rotors. Go read our GT4 Brake upgrade thread. (TigaWoods is the main author) GT4 rotors are NOT usable. Supra rotors are usable or BRZ rotors are bolt on for GT4 brakes. GT4 calipers are also much lighter as they are aluminum |
