1G RPF1 17x9 +35 Brake Options?

[1GASonny]

Hey guys! I'm in need of a little help. Trying to find calipers seem to be interesting for my 1990 Eagle Talon TSi since I have these RPF1 17x9 +35's. Didn't realize that I would be out of option for doing a big brake swap when I looked into it. This is absolutely my fault. HOWEVER - I do need to get new brakes because mine are likely to be original.

Here are my questions - can I use something that can be from another vehicle? Suggestions on where to look to get new calipers? Or should I just rebuild?

Go to the 1g "big brake" calipers with some nice pads and you'll probably be happy.

Will this fit with the 17x9 +35 rpf1?

Whats the 1g "big brake" caliper? Share a link for me !

That thread seemed a bit out of date.

Where did you get your caliper / rotors from? (what vehicle)

You must not have even read the thread.

I have the same size rpf1s. You can easily fit the 2 piston 92 and up talon brakes. It's a very budget setup.

For the 2 piston swap, I would recommend you get calipers and brackets from an 05 Outlander as well as rotors. Those rotors are an inch bigger than stock and that's the cheapest "biger" kit that you can get and fit on 17x9 rpf1.

After that, if you need anything better, I'm currently running wilwood plus 4 kit. Those are 13" rotors with 4 piston calipers. I was able to fit them on rpf1s with 5mm spacer

Thanks!! I'm only assuming look for the AWD Outlander version?

Also I need to note - my rears are the ones that need to be replaced (calipers)

Keep the rear calipers stock, they do a good job.

Get the awd outlander calipers. If I remember correctly they were the same as the fwd

i would highly suggest the 35 in back and 45 offset in front btw. 35 in front sticks out A LOT.
