luke_mcmahon85 Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 hey guys, i'm in the middle of putting r31 rear calipers on my 260z, and am using the r31 caliper brackets, that need to be modified (holes welded and redrilled, a section cut out so they can slide on). but, as i absolutely butchered my backing plates getting them off, i can't really use it as an accurate template. also, making the hole in the centre bigger looks a little bit dodgy just being widened with an angle grinder. to save all this mucking around, i was wondering if purchasing the pre-modified caliper brackets for a 1600 ( http://www.maddat.com.au/brake-parts.php ) would be an easier option. I just need to know if the holes would be the same as for the z? I've emailed them, but haven't recieved a reply yet. also, i know they're pretty expensive for something that would take 20 minutes to do myself, but i'd need to buy bigger drill bits etc, and i'm still not sure i'd be confident in getting it right, also apparently nissco make them up much cheaper Quote
