Firstly I must apologise for cancelling on a sale on the evo - brembo upgrade. I didn't try the setup on the R32 personally but knew people that have.I currently have it on the S14 so was sure it would work since front brakes are interchangeable between them. While payment was being processed I found out that the R32 spindle
1: requires some grinding for the bracket to seat properly
2: the hub is offset my 5mm causing the rotor to not be centred.
I refunded and cancelled the payment to a member here Well knowing I couldn't sell it now I decided to use it.
My buddy and mechanic accepted the challenge to get them to work on the R32 spindle.
You can see below what was ground/cut without compromising the structure of the spindle and mounting points. Even when it was assembled the rotor did not centred between the caliper.
This didn't make sense to me, R32 brakes go on a S14 why not the other way around. The hub of the r32 is recessed by 5 mm so the rotor seats differently. We had to space the rotor from the back with a slip on 5mm and it was perfect. Thanks riy!
