Posted October 10, 200519 yr comment_141124 Hello Everyone,I am thinking of going with the Toyota 4 piston caliper set up and wanted to know if I would have a clearance issue with my 16x7, 0 offset Panasport wheels?

October 10, 200519 yr comment_141140 I have the non-vented setup and they fit fine. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17565-toyota-4-piston-calipers-panasport/#findComment-141140 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 10, 200519 yr comment_141152 I have a setup using 280 front hubs and a spacer that is about 1/4" thick. With the vented setup, the brakes don't clear my 15x7 +0 Konigs. If you used the thicker spacer with 240 hubs, they will.btw, did my first track event with these brakes, hawk blues in front and 280zx rear discs with standard pads and had no fade at all, even with a couple 40 minute sessions. They were awesome! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17565-toyota-4-piston-calipers-panasport/#findComment-141152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 10, 200519 yr comment_141156 I am running the Toyota 4 piston calipers with a spacer to center them for the vented 300ZX disks. My Panasports are the 15x7 with zero offset, but I doubt the 16x7 would be any different. They work fine. As a matter of fact, I first tried an Enkei style mesh wheel with a flat center section and they contacted the calipers. The Panasports have a bowed spoke, which provide enough clearance.Marty Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17565-toyota-4-piston-calipers-panasport/#findComment-141156 Share on other sites More sharing options...

October 10, 200519 yr Author comment_141173 Thanks everyone.Will the vented setup need spacers then?Are the calipers wider on the vented?Thanks,Saro Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17565-toyota-4-piston-calipers-panasport/#findComment-141173 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 10, 200519 yr comment_141175 Yes and Yes. The calipers are significantly wider, and the actually have a "W" cast into them. The spacer will center them over the vented rotor. Will the right pads, this set-up is killer. I use the Axxis Ultimates (ceramic/kevlar compound) You won't be dissappointed.Marty Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17565-toyota-4-piston-calipers-panasport/#findComment-141175 Share on other sites More sharing options...

October 10, 200519 yr comment_141178 I think there are a couple of places that offer them. I got mine from a guy that used to have them on eBay all the time, but I have not seen them lately. I think it was some initials. Something like SK Innovations. Can't remember, its been a while. Nice quality work though.Good luck,Marty Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/17565-toyota-4-piston-calipers-panasport/#findComment-141178 Share on other sites More sharing options...
