Oh Noes!

I got hold of some M-type front brake for my 32. but i just got the calipers and rotors and a few fitting that go with it....

this is from http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/R3...ml&hl=brake

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To do conversion:

a) type-m 4pot caliper x 2

B) type-m brake lines and all fittings x 2 (mandatory!) <----------------------------------- ZOMG! My lines were cut!!!!!

c) type-m spec discs, which will generally be much thicker than the non type-m

d) brake fluid bottles x 2 (DOT 3 or better rating) - supercheap auto

e) brake bleed kit (supercheap auto)

"In a way this is one of the more fiddly parts of the process. Make sure you have the type-m lines or equivelent, as the non type-m have a different thread pattern on the caliper end and WILL NOT work (trust me I tried)"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So that means i need M Type lines from somewhere?

has any1 done this conversion b4, any help would b appreciated!

Maybe try somewhere like Pirtek, I think they come out too but charge a call out fee or alternatively just take your parts in and see what they can do for you.

Failing that finding a wreck somewhere. Btw, what sort of $$$$ does it cost to upgrade just out of curiosity.

pirtek wont touch a road registered car. tried that.

get in contact with pbr, they should be able to knock up a set of legal lines for you.

P.S the 4 door brake lines are the same az 2 door upto ypou bud will the r33 lines type-m fit the r32 type-m brake calipers.?

Get some braided lines from the group buy section, it will make your conversion even better.

Brake lines

[joeleo87]

yeh thats just the lines... i cant find my effen camera atm. ill post some pics tomorrow. the calipers still have the 'm-spec' lines goin into them but they are cut further along the lines... so just past where the bracket sits, so i was thinking of just trying to undo the hose at 1 of the connection points and try and fit my hose in there.

*edit - Thanks for the link tho Evil, i need all the help i cant get *
