wannabe Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hey team, did some measurements and googling but inconclusive evidence. Are the calipers the same between the above chassis? I want to rebuild both front brakes but I can't find anything concrete if x81 stuff will work in the Crown. Otherwise could someone let me know where to find rebuild kits and front brake pads for my Crown? Hookups would be sweeeet too and I will love you rong time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wannabe Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 D'oh, why didn't I think of them? Will give them a buzz! Cheers K cubed Edit: Oh and before I forget, does anyone get mates rates through BnT that they could shares? Pretty please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowzer Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I don't think there's much similar between X and S chassis. The front suspension is completely different. BNT couldn't help with rotors last I checked. Can't recall the code but apparently they ain't being made no more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabe Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hmm I checked up the measurements for brake piston sizes for a x81 and s131 and apparently according to google they are the same? So I am unsure regarding this. May check to see if someone has a spare to confirm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Tried toyota? shouldn't be expensive and the brake seal kits I have got from them in the past are more complete than aftermarket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegreatestben Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Skyline brake conversion is very straight forward on x81 if they do end up being close/same. Toyodiy part numbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabe Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 So an update for those who are interested, BnT and Toyota both have the parts I need. Will be getting the seals from Toyota and pads from BnT as they are closer/cheaper. Cheers for help all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
