e4 brakes to brembos

[roynx79]

hi people just won me some brembos for my e4 my question is will they use the original carrier bolts or will they be different?

 

[trackday]

Different thread mate goto any decent nut bolt fastener place they will have them as mitsi want 5 quid a bolt :0

 

[RsvRob]

They are also longer to fit the the brembos ...

 

[roynx79]

right ok surely if you are bolting the carrier to the hub the thread should be the same???

 

[trackday]

The threads in the carrier the e4 has a medium pitch the brembos have a course pitch trust me I'm doin same upgrade just waiting for wheels off a 7 to come back from being sprayed as my e4 wheels were wrong offset to take the brembos

What offset do u need

 

[trackday]

Yeah the bolts go through the HUD carrier into the caliper which has the threads in also make sure you loctite them in as well,will post pics later,any wheels e5 onwards will take the brembos....
