32 Gtr Track Car - Brake Upgrade

[josh23457]

Hi,

In the process of building a 32 GTR track car.

The car will be putting out around the 330 rwkw

The first port of call are the brakes, as at the moment they are utterly useless, going on the fronts are some 6 pot AP racing 365mm fronts, while keeping the rears standard.

The question i have is can the original front brakes be put on the rear. The reason i ask is that i have been advised to maybe upgrade the rears at the same time with 4 pot 330mm rotors. Would n putting the fronts on the rear work "just as well" and not upset the balance too much??? or is this not possible with the design of the car.

Thanks in advance

Josh

well yes and no. they won't bolt straight on because the mounts are different at the rear.... and there is the handbrake on the rear hub under the disc so you would have to see if they fit up OK.

sounds too hard to me. If you don't need a handbrake you can make something up to suit. if you do probably better to stick with the standards or the 33/34 gtr brembos. or the g4 spot rears which are made for the job

There is no way yo can put your fronts on the rear. Even if you could you dont want to. The AP 6 pots dont have all that much piston area and you would end up with way too much rear braking torque which will have you locking rears way too often
