2G Big Brakes for FWD?

[BLACK'98DSM]

They're listed as AWD, but it should be the same as the FWD cars right? It's the front only.

FWD front pads are not the same as AWD front pads. FWD are only single piston calipers. AWD have dual piston calipers.

He is wanting to go to dual piston calipers, will the brakes mount up to the same bracket holes on a N/A car as they do on a turbo car? I think so but am not sure.

Dual-piston and single-piston calipers mount the same to the knuckle. That is, the spacing between and caliper's mounting points are the same. They can be interchanged on the knuckle.

The 2 piston upgrade bolts right up to the 420a cars. All of the suspension is identical

I would see if the front calipers are the same part number as a gst. And if there are then they should just bolt up like when people go from gst brakes to gsx.

Nice

Powerstop kit bolts right on, comes with pads and rotors. Slap on some SS braided brake lines and it'll make a huge difference.

In past post I remember you mentioning canyon carving. There are other bigger BBK bolt-on option beside the GSX dual piston upgrade. Before you pull the trigger you may like looking through these threads-

You can also look into the outlander front brakes. They are about an inch bigger rotor than the GSX brakes. I run them on my car with the bigger rear brake (vented rotorEarly 95 cars if I remember right )option with EBC red stuff pads. Brakes great.
