Pretty good info here, keep me updated on this.

Could you elaborate? I dont think that would work judging by the link on the second or 3rd page just by how tight the rotor and brake setup is under an 18" wheel.

What about the image on the page before for the CNC'd pieces that are round and could press fit in? Any information on them?

 

You would have to CNC the holes in the caliper for those inserts to line up perfectly. It would and up being expensive.


You cant do a bracket for the same diameter rotor because the holes already overlap.


Look up radial mount caliper and you'll understand why I'm saying that would be easier.

 

how come no one here has tried the CTS-V?

I know for a fact alot of DSM guys use the 4pot rears from the V and, that means they should bolt our car, the rear? I havent looked into this really, just confused why no one hasent. We are talking about getting brembo monoblocs for pennies on the dollar if you can get them to bolt up.

can anyone tell me the hole space for our front and rear calipers. i think the CTS-V rears match up
The front will need a bracket as they are actually not equal distance from the center.

 

A little research find that the CTS-V is a 5 inch spacing between the mounting holes. Seeing how this is a japanese car, i am sure they are different, metric measurements and all.

with a larger rotor, a bracket could be fashioned.

 

I sincerely apologize for having the gall to resurrect this cadaver, but does anyone have an inkling as to whether or not, this VW/Porsche front brake adaptation might be as easily executed on an Evo X platform as it apparently is on an VIII/IX?

 

What year SRT8 rear brembo with fit our EVO

 

The Ctsv rear calipers actually measure at just a hair above 4 3/4" center to center on the bolt holes whereas the Evo rears are at about 5 1/2" so they would require a custom bracket in order to try and work.

 

Going to install some 18z calipers.most likely will need adapter brackets,but can't confirm until i get some front evo x rotors to test fit & caliper alignment.
and rear girodisc evo 8 hats with x rotor disc or rear x rotors

the rotor top hat height for the rear is 58mm for the Evo VIII and 59mm for the Evo X (the e-brake drums are also bigger) for using X rotors.you can use an aluminum spacer like in this thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/mo...-8-9-a-49.html or convert to evo x e-brake https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...7479414&type=3
