As we all know Z32 standard brakes suck, in my opinion they are the weakest link in the performance of a Z32, so the question is, Has anybody fitted the big Range Rover Brembo Calipers and discs to a Z32 ?

Also what about the Brembo 8 pot calipers that have become so affordable of late ? Failing any of the above what are the largest Brake discs readily available and for sensible money that can fit a Z32 ?

top banana jimmy... there u go.. u need the x-factor! my fronts are only 8" jimmy, which is why they are still a fair distance in the arch @ et20. though i think it suits the rest of the cars stance, if i was to go further out i think it would need to be lower.

spelling!

Every wheel has an x-factor which is how far the spoke is from the centre line, Find out your wheels x factor then calculate from where your calipers are at present and how far the new caliper extend out.

Offset also depends on the wheels width, if you had an 8inch front wheel and compared it to joelys which i think is 8.5 inch wide there is a 1.3mm size diference which is 7mm difference in offset so your 8inch wheel will stick in an extra 7mm compared to the 8.5inch wheel, thats almost 1cm which is a visable difference, just something to think about :D

 

Thanks Jimmy & Joel, the offset of my fronts is 32, you can be rest assured I will be using a rizla to ensure the most agressive offset possible even if I have to have hub centric spacers made up specially, just to give you an idea of my nuttiness, I first had hub centric spacers machined from blanks to convert a 4x114.3 to use a 5x120 8.5x17 with 255/40's on a ZX about 18years ago.............. ;-)
