Just curious how you got the fronts sorted?

 

More info please?

 

Yes please more information on that.

 

This thread has been covered for 2g's. Try and find Mitsumissle, I think he's the one who origonally did it on the 2g, he may be able to get you the information you need....

 

Anyone have any infomation on how to go about doing a evo brembo brake conversion on a 1g the fronts I have sorted , just the rears are giving me a headache are there any parts that will bolt straight up ? Any help would be great cheers

There is no way to bolt EVO brembo caliper on 1g. Only if you can make the bracket for it.

BTW, here is my 1g friend's car with rear brembo.

 

I knew you'd be able to give some information....

 

How come they left the stock caliper bracket and what looks to be a brake pad on there? Was the wheel just put on to test fitment?

The stock caliper is only for handbrake.

Ahh.. that makes sense. Thanks, man!

 

Thats crazy looking.

what if you used the the rear evo4 hubs and trailing arms instead of the 1g trailing arms will it bolt up ?

Im gona go down to the ( Pick A Part ) and do some research see if i can mix and match a setup from all types of mitsi's

 

I wouldn't think the trailing arms would work, but I'd like to know if they do. Keep us posted!!

How did you do the front?
Also anyone reading this, whats better evo or 3s breaks, cause 3s would be cheaper.

I got Front hubs off a Evo 4 they bolt directly up to the shock , directly to the steering rack and directly to the lower control arm no modification needed and they support bolt on brembo's calipers when i find some I will take pics when I sort out a camera

Maybe ill just convert the front and leave the rear so 5 stud on the front 4 stud on the back , and ill carry 2 spear tyres one 4 stud and one 5 stud :chair:

 

I have run into a problem with the front cv axle that bolts into the hub they are some what smaller on the 1gvr4 if i go ahead with this I will have to change the cv joint ends to the evo 4 ones seems like it might get quite expensive maybe ill just upgrade to some evo 1 brakes in the front and be done with it ,,,

 

There is a shop I know of that is going to make the brackets for the 1G to Evo 8 swap both front and rear. They wanted the brackets to be around $125 for a pair and should have something by next Spring.

You're going to need a 40mm offset maximum for the fronts, the Evo's are 38mm if I remember correctly.

 

^Please keep us updated, I am looking at doing teh 3S upgrade now, but if what you say is true then I will wait.
