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

Bump!

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 :)

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
