Hey guys,

Bought this Brembo F40 calipers for my s15 as I'm thinking to track it this year but it will be an overkill and going to run 17" so will be purchasing GTR brembos instead. Those who are serious with their brakes will know what these calipers are capable of, can run anything from 324mm rotors(GTR size) all the way up to 355mm rotors.

As you can see, these calipers are in very good condition, even the seals at the piston look schmick. All pins and clips included. It will also come with used pads with PLENTY of meat but I did not take a picture of it

Asking $1500 FIRM

The previous owner advertised them as F40s so assumed they are, it was off a brembo GT kit from his E36

But checking the part number on the caliper, it doesnt look like it

Part numbers on the caliper are:

20.7679.00

20.7678.00

Dont have much luck finding F50 brembo caliper number but found some info on this thread:

Anyone knows F50 brembo caliper part number?

Taking offers. need this gone to purchase GTR brembos

The actual serial on the calipers are below:

20.7679.00

20.7678.00

They are off a brembo GT kit hence the serial does not match what i posted above but they are essentially the same caliper - even uses the same pad as the F40 brembos

The easiest way to work out what caliper they are is to grab some verniers and measure the piston diameters. That will tell you what they are. The part numebrs vary on a few different things. (The F40 and F50 is a generic description for them as there is any number of different piston size combinations) If these were off a BMW kit they could have slightly different pistons sizes to typical Nissan kits. (not that it matters a whole lot)

ut looking at the piston orientation i am guessing they come off a Mazda, BMW or Supra etc as they are a trailing caliper where as the Nissan requriess a leading caliper setup. Its not difficult to swap over the bleed nipples and bridge though to correct that

But yes they all take the same pads...and if you get desperate to sell them then PM me your price as i have a few sets of rotors and things laying around that i could use these to make a kit

Still have these - now selling with dogbones

Asking: $1600 ONO Lowballers will be ignored

Bridge and bleed nipple has been swapped around so it's a leading caliper setup now :)

    • Hi, wondering if the HKS bar and water reservoir still available? Thanks 
    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not
