JDM Brembo Fitting

[m0nty ITR]

JDM ITR Brembos arriving next week.

Any tips on fitting them? Will they fit with AUDM rotors and do brake lines or master cylinder need to be upgraded?

have u also purchased the JDM LCA's, driveshafts and wheels with higher offset?
and then to do it properly the rear knuckles aswell?

[m0nty ITR]

The Volks I've ordered have the same offset as the JDM wheels so clearance won't be an issue.

Are you saying I need to replace the control arms and driveshafts? First I've heard of it. New rotors I've ordered will fit fine. They're same size as AUDM rotors. The calipers will suit 296mm rotors.

I thought there would've been quite a few people here that have done this mod.

I know this is of the topic
What off set are the VOLKS rim's

I'd have to check. I leave all the car stuff at work.

You need to replace the hub, knuckle, LCA and sway bar in order for JDM DC5R brembos to fit onto an AUDM DC5R.

Hmmm, doesn't seem like such a good deal anymore.

Any idea on costs for all that?

with out a doubt yes.

most people don't do this conversion because of all the things you have to buy just to make it fit.

Very true, Plus it's like standard Brakes.

best brake upgrade that you can do for your car is good brake pads and maybe braided brake lines... calipers = blingness, but i would do it to if i had the money lol
