sc brake upgrade

Post by james911rs »

Does anyone know if sc brakes will just bolt on to the early suspension legs, or do i need the whole leg as well. Thanks.

SC or "A" Calipers will bolt straight onto your front struts IF you have Koni (Red or Yellow) or Bilstein (Green or Yellow) struts, (3.5" spacing)

If you've got Boge (Blue or Black) struts then they won't fit as the spacing is 1/2 inch too narrow (3")

It would be easier to just measure the spacing between the caliper bolts 3.5'' and your good to go.

Or even easier fit EBC yellowstuff race pads - which will be about the same - really need to go with 3.2 calipers to get a major change
