Ok..
Which side did everyone grind..
Especially targeted to yonas/dave
Ive read that you can grind the red side too... it easier as you wont need it to be 100% flat...
if so why doesnt everyone do it..

blitz if you don't mind me asking but have you changed the knuckles? because i'm having clearance problems as well but that's on my stock knuckles. i thought that changing to proper knuckles would fix up that clearance problems.
proper knuckles are the way to go guys.
outer side of the caliper ( thats the one that touch the wheels)
I shaved around 3mm off to be able to fit my sprint hart cpf 45 offset.
but again different rims have different design of the spokes.
Other option is to run 3-5mm spacer.
But i still find that with some 42 offset rims , the caliper still hit my rims.
proper knuckles help too
I have heard that rotor hits the caliper for some people thats why they shave the mounting face..Quote:

Everyone has different fitment problems.. all slight but workable
its a way to go.. so as getting new hubs for 5 stud rotors..Quote:

add a 3mm spacer...you'll be fine.
were running a 3mm spacer and the ITR calipers just clears the EK4 rims.
which option would be better?
having a spacer or shaving it?
save urself the hassle n buy 2 3mm spacer... will solve all ur problems.. no grinding is needed.. spacer are abt $10 buck each
i've done this same set-up on my car
is it necessary to run longer bolts for the spacers?
good option.. but your wheels might stick out like its the wrong offset..Quote:

I've tried that before
But it's better to change to ITR master cylinder and booster as well
besides spacer are illegal ehhehe.. and im tight.. ehehehQuote:

Aparently it ok.. but to better it all i need is the teg's booster...
If i was going for the ITR master cyclinder and booster i would have went for the oem twin piston setup and not single piston ITR....
Ill most proabably try a brake stopped to increase the pressure.. and maybe braided lines too..
