Acura TL-S Brembo calipers

Post by 1337Htune » Mon May 09, 2016 10:38 am

Hi !

I just order pair of Acura TL-S Brembo Calipers.

Does someone allready fit them on 5G ?


My info:
-Drill the mounting hole on the car to fit the bigger bolt
OR re-thread the calipers

-Machine the hub outter diamm to fit TL-S Disc
OR fit TLS hub

TLS Pads or Other common brembo (STI, EVO, etc...)

Thanks.

I don't know, but my sensible head tells me - drill out the mounting hole, do not drokk with the caliper. Fit the TLS hub rather than removing any hub material.. as far as pads go, if they're common sizes, buy the cheapest.
