hilux/4runner clipers
datsunzman1824:
hi there guys just a quick question.what year hilux/4runner clipers can i use to upgrade my 1976 260z 2+2?
i can get a hold of a pair of calipers of a 4runner and they are off a 1994 model can i use them?
thanks for any info cheers :)
Agno:
What is stamped on the side of the caliper? There should be something like S12+8, S13 or S13W to tell you what model calipers they are...
chris240:
I thought the S12+8 for a solid rotor ended in the early 90's..
you need to establish if you want to keep the rotors as solid or change to vented.
but 1st step as mentioned, you need to ask whats stamped on the side..

I'm about half way through this conversion. I purchased a set of 1988 4Runner S12.8 calipers off ebay for $76.50.
For my own safety and to make things a little more future proof I got them reconditioned. I live on the Northside of Brisbane so I dropped them into "Stainless Steel Sleeving" at Brendale and for $132.00 each, they came back like this:
(I was most impressed)
Comparison next to my original 71 Zed calipers:
I just need to get some rotors for the front and away I go. I've read about the Pug rotors, Magna TP rotors and 200sx rotors but if anyone could shed some more light on the most simple rotor to deal with I would appreciate it.
Cheers

The S-13 Rotors mentioned in the above thread would do the trick.
