Hello
Do any of you know if they have sold any CT9A without Brembo brakes?

Not to be rude, do you have any kind of factual text on it?
I've managed to order brake pads that do not fit. However, it is stated both in the title and in the information that they fit the CT9A. Plainly it was at the bottom of the page that they did not fit Brembo brakes. Now they do not want to change the right cause I have ordered wrong.

Yeah, it was the full stripped version of the car intended for racers to buy who were going to throw away stock bits anyways.

I've heard of the car, it certainly exists in the JDM.

Seeing as how you're in Sweden, there's a far greater chance of encountering one of the super stripped down Evos and parts for it.

Yes, they absolutely exist.

It seems funny business odd that the supplier would provide brake pads for a rare and unlikely brake set up and then not want to exchange them.

Is it possible instead of ordering brake pads for the lancer 2.0 t you ordered it for the 2.0 non turbo regular Lancer?

The cross reference list is pretty much auto-populated, so any car that they fit gets listed. If someone needs the pads, they are listed. Probably the same calipers as a base lancer or other Mitsu, etc.

I only know the RS from Gran Turismo LOL. Steel wheels and all. I've never seen or heard of one otherwise. Not really something you would see at a car show, though.

I thought I saw one on something like Best Motoring where they had a bunch of different Evo models. Been trying to find it.

Yup, I've seen it before. Imagine the type of evo racing teams would buy in bulk. Lightest model possible, but made to be taken apart. I can't seem to find it anywhere!

Lots of Group N rally teams bought them, before there was a homologated brembo kit, everyone run the normal 2pot sliding calipers for gravel use.
So there are lots of pads for those calipers.

The RS with the non brembo setup are far more common outside of the US.

My evo6 didn't come with brembos.
