Hey guys does anybody have these brackets kicking around or know the measurements of them so I can make them myself ? For reference, it is the vr4 front brake upgrade on a 2g.

Everything you need is right here. https://www.rtmracing.com/xcart/home.php?cat=1434 or even here http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/3kgt-vr4-brackets.484662/ unless you have a CNC and can get it spot on buy whats already tested and works. you will only have more pain making them yourself as a 1 off item!

I bought the 1G brackets recently and they arrived pretty quickly. If you're using the cobra rotors don't forget the centric rings to center them on your hub.

Hey thanks for the tag, all out at the moment could make another batch if enough interest

That part looks real nice. What are the measurements on it? Do you have any comparisons with that and the bracket from RTM with regards to how much clearance is required for the wheels? Neither set of wheels I have would clear the caliper with the RTM bracket without using spacers due to the spokes hitting.

I purchased a set of 3KGT brake caliper brackets, and took some measurements so that other members could reproduce these themselves. This may be documented elsewhere, but I never found a good set of measurements that actually made sense. These measurements were taken from my brackets with a Snap On Blue Point dial caliper. Some of the measurements were rounded to make the math add up, but overall the measurements should be accurate to >.010". Please PM me with any questions.

Each of the holes in the bracket are threaded. The first set of bolts go through the steering knuckle and bolt into the bracket. The second set of bolts go through the caliper and bolt into the bracket.

I've already received a few PMs about what rotors these brackets are compatible with. The rotors I have are just typical 3000GT discs much like these: click

This may be obvious, but it's worth noting the 3KGT rotors are 5 lug, yet they are pictured on my 4 lug Galant. Curtis, being the nice guy that he is, went out of his way to do a little writeup on how to drill the 5 lug rotors to fit 4 lug hubs ---> Drilling 5 lug rotors for 4 lug hubs

The brackets I posted measurements of will NOT work with the Cobra rotors to my knowledge. The measurements for 3KGT adapter brackets that use the Cobra rotors are mentioned in this thread ---> click and are pictured below:

I take it these measurements don't do any measuring from center of bolt hole?

Nope, but should be easy to figure out with a bit of math.
