mikemerkury Posted May 25, 2009 Share #1 Posted May 25, 2009 Ordered brake pads from Motorsport assuming that my 73 had the original brake calipers. Now being told by mechanic that brake pads are too small for calipers. No part numbers as far as I can see. They are Sumitomo. Left side has numbers on the outside that are all separated : 2 7 W. Right side has X 6 M and an 84 under that. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/31975-help-needed-identifying-front-brake-calipers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

=Enigma= Posted May 25, 2009 Share #4 Posted May 25, 2009 Are the calipers floating? Are the mounting tabs on the caliper threaded? Are the discs vented? If any of this is true, it's possible that the calipers are from a 280ZX. See the following threads for more info on possible brake mods that have been done at one point or another.http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=103767http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=104735 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/31975-help-needed-identifying-front-brake-calipers/#findComment-284732 Share on other sites More sharing options...
