1G If i get the powerstop z26 brake and rotor kit will i need to change my calipers?

[Kettlar 91 laser rs]

My buddy had bought a kit from powerstop and he ended having to upgrade his calipers to fit the kit, is this the case with dsm’s? Or will they fit fine? Figure it’s not an issue and they fit but i want to be sure before i buy it!

You have to buy the rotors that fit your car. Not all dsms have the same size brakes.
Z26 is also a model of brake pad, not brake rotor, from power stop and not a complete part number.
Where are you getting information?

Rock auto is where i would be buying it from. I have the single piston caliper brake setup. I included a pic of the kit and the rotor size.

Rockauto includes all the part numbers for the kits. Just pick the right one. For you fwd.

This doesn't apply to you but there is one more almost nobody lists. The very early 90 (early 89 build date) have smaller brakes. I doubt anybody with those would find parts and would need to "upgrade". Just some fun facts.

Copy that, and it is for my talon not the laser. Unfortunately the laser is just more of a parts car If im running pretty much zero modifications, this would be the best option rather than waiting and saving my money for a big brake kit?

If you want the bigger awd 93 up brake then do so. You just need calipers and brackets also. Up to you. Naturally you would have to order pads and rotors for 93 up awd if you do this.
Here is some good info

Making the swap to the front dual piston calipers and installing braided brake lines made a huge improvement in feel, fading, and longevity on my GSX. I only wish I had done it when I first got the car.
