Thinking of getting a set of brembo gold's off a crashed my02 sti,and putting them on my99 type r.
can anyone tell me will this give me a better brake.

 

Hell yeah????

I have a set of STi 7 Brembos on my MY00 and they are feckin awsome.

The car actually stops now

 

cool m8 cheers for that just rang him told him ill take them.What pads have you got on...

 

I still have the standard factory pads and disks.

 

his are the same,so your happy with them.

 

yep I am more than happy with them, they are designed to work on amuch heavier car so on a classic they are even better. I know people that use pagid pads etc and they squeal like a biatch so I am more than happy with the standard disks and pads.

 

ill let you know how i get on

 

You will have to change your wheels after fitting them?

I had OZ Supertourismos on mine ET48 and needed 15mm spacers to clear the calipers, I fitted the STi7 ET53 wheels and they fit perfectly over the calipers and as the original 99/00 wheels where ET 53 anyway these are a good compromise.

 

i have 17" buddy club wheels do you know if theywill fit?

 

sorry mate no idea, do they bow out from the hub like the STi wheels?
