If I am not mistaken, the Q actually has more swept area than the Z set up. Just fewer pistons and less surface area on the caliper....or maybe that is teh Y33 Q brakes instead???

So which would be a better setup, the q45?? What all would I need beside the calipers, rotors and the caliper harness thingy? Would I need new soft lines and steering knuckles as well and how much modification would have to be done for a direct bolt up




David48; which r much bigger

Q45 rotors are much bigger than S13 rotors. For Q45 brakes you just need the caliper, rotor, caliper bracket, and they should bolt up.
