i know it sounds stupid but for someone who cant really afford to purchase an 1800 dollar small brake kit for the front wheels....will this hurt or help me?

 

You could buy brakes for MUCH cheaper than that. I know brakes from some galant will bolt right in. Im sure there are other options but I have heard of that. Id try searching for other ways to get cheap brakes on the car and go with all 4 tires.

Im sure it would help a little bit but since the car is awd it would hook better in the rear but the front would still be spinning very badly. It may eventually hurt the T/C do to the extreme difference in traction. Probably nothing to worry about for the few times you would drag race it though.

 

Don't do it. You can get a variety of soft compound 'sticky' radial tires to fit your stock wheels.

Why not buy drag radials? What is your power level?

 

last time i dynoed i made 490 on ms103 and alky...i have now since switched to c16 and have not yet gotten retuned yet...im running bfgoodrich drag radials on kosei wheels...i pretty much only drag the car...i have a daily driver.

my gt42r is on the way

 

Just get drag radials. You dont need slicks

 

what year galants bolt rite in? does it require a disc change as well im asuming?

 

If im not mistaken you need the RS Calipers from Japan to make the dsm brakes work. The RS caliper seem hard to get

 

The RS caliper is not hard to get. Call Adam at Z1 Auto and tell him Tim sent you. He has the set of Evo RS JDM front brakes which is all you need to switch over to 16's. The kit includes the rotors calipers pads and bolts etc.

 

Dam i wish i would have known that before i spent $1100 on Wilwoods

 

I have a set of the brakes sold by Z1 for the evo which I would sell for $300 complete shipped - these are front brakes for a evo so you can use smaller wheels

These have about 300 miles on them but may have some minor suface rust

AL

 

I will take them!!!

I can get them much much cheaper than that.
