Does anyone if EK4 calipers will fit and EK9??

Are Vti's not a four-stud ..... as oppose to five on an EK9?? :D
 
the calipers would fit but the ek4 ones are alot smaller...!!

Do you mean the pads or discs??
 
ek9 and ek4 calipers are the same size . doesnt matter bout 4 or 5 stud wheels it aint the wheels the cliper bolts onto is it .

calipers are the same
 
this is for the rear remember . cause the fronts are alot bigger but its the rear sharkey is enquirin about
 
rears are different i think!!!!

i bought a seal kit for the rear calipers on my EK9 and the kit was actually stated for a VTi and the piston seals were way too small :secret:
 
the EK9's rear calipers are larger than the EK4.

EK9 - 9CLP14S over a 10.2" rotor

EK4 - 9CLP13S over a 9.4" rotor
 
ek4 calipers most likely to be the same as eg6/9.

type r calipers, brakes, discs are larger

I was just pointing out that I knew there were differences with the break set-ups in the cars, I didnt know if size was one.

Obv it is . . .
 
ek9 calipers are the same as dc2 itr

Dont think thay are mate!
As i bought a rear itr caliper for my 9 and when i came to fit it, the jaw's of the itr caliper were about 5mm to short! (would not fit over a new set if pad's)
 
nice work!! :) cheers for that babyface.
the re-build kit they sell is for an ek4 but im guessin its the same for an ek9?
 
It is possible to fit/swap 9clp14s on ek4? Are they bolt on? I already know that i will need to buy bigger pads and bigger rotors....
