hi eght,
you had the same problem as me. I thought 262 could straight bolt on to my existing GLi brakes. If you searched, there was a thread on it - brake upgrade
anyway, the "missing" piece is ...you have to get the whole "knuckle", that includes the hub, rotors, calipers, bracket and what nots.
see if that works out for u.
Chock
oh ok so what knuckles from what vehicles can i use?
i can use eg6, eh9... can i use ek knuckles? they have 262mm brake discs as well and how about integras?
jzu get the knuckle set from where u got the rotors and calipers from.
i got mine from a DC VTIR ..262mm too =)
I got 262mm rotors, dc2 gsi knuckles, calipers and hub setup in my EG5 Si which came with 240mm rotors originally.
so you'll need the knuckles and hubs to complete the set.
EG30,
its pretty hard to get the hubs and the knuckles w/o the rotors and calipers
Agree?
sell the 262 or keep it the new one required machine-ing
to the OP
as stated you need new knuckles - why? Because the 2 mounting holes for the caliper behind are slightly further apart for the 262 and also 282mm brake setups.
you can use the knuckle , disc and calipers off
eg6 , ek4 , 99+ek1 , em1 , dc2 and dc4.
all the above came with the same knuckle and same 262mm setup.
just remember to get front brake pads to suit the CALIPER (for example ek4 caliper needs ek4 pads) - the pads are slightly different model to model.
EG30 - true.
