DIY: AP Racing Install

jr1 · 06-30-2011, 12:28 AM

Thanks for the write up Chris, I installed my kit yesterday and it was very helpful.

Just a heads up, the rear kit has been changed slightly to accommodate smaller wheels. The process is more or less the same but the new caliper bracket must bolted on the inside of the stock caliper bracket instead of on the outside. Also the backing plate must be trimmed significantly to accommodate the new rotor.

Actually it is mounted on the inside, it's just hard to tell on the pics.

Do you have the specs on the new rear setup? In my setup the rear rotor is actually smaller than stock, 13.25" but the pad swept area is similar.
