Brembo Mounting Bolts


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hi all wondering if anyone has got any mounting bolts for a set of front brembo calipers ?I just tried to fit one to see if my wheels would clear them

but the four pot mounting bolts are a different thread ;) while i am here where is the best place to get spacers if they don't. Thank you.

Cheers Kenny

Mine didn't come with mounting bolts and ended up getting them from the dealers. Was something silly like £7 per bolt though! ;)

Got a set of STI v7 wheels on mine so no probs with them fitting over the Brembos. Yup, was twenty something pounds for the 4 bolts.

I went through this recently, I cant remember what the thread size was but will try and difg the info out. Once I find it just buy 4 high tensile bolts from ebay prob about £2 -£4 job done ;)

Kenny a quick search on Scoobynet shows them to be 12 x 1.5 but not sure what length. It would be worth waiting to see if Arch confirms this.

The boy I bought my calipers from didn't have the bolts so he bought a set from AS Performance, but couldn't get them to fit and sold the calipers on to me. Turned out the bolts AS performance had supplied to him weren't for Brembos.

Ended up going to the dealers to make sure I got the right ones. Having said that Halleys were a complete waste of time as they didn't have a clue. Went to Grieves in the end who couldn't have been more helpful in sorting me out with the right parts :D .

Just buy 4 M12X1.5 high tensile bolts from ebay. assuming that is the correct size it sounds about right but I havnt had time to check, and then cut them to size. It will cost about £4.

Can't remember and I only had them off about a month ago but the bolts may have a shoulder on them?

Kenny ive got a set of rear gold brembo calipers lying in the garage somewhere mate and i know there are a set of 4 bolts that my mate Croc cut down to fit when were were attempting the rear brakes fit to my car. i will go up the now and see if i can find them,im presuming they will be the same bolt size as the fronts were, i know they deffo fit wrx mount and thread size as we had the caliper mounted but the disc's i had were about 10mm short in diameter and i didnt want to risk it as the car would probably want to tear them off!!!!!!! Im heading down to the meet on thurs now there's minimum chance of being harrassed by the police and vosa, if they are not long enough coz they were cut for the rear calipers i'll go and bug Croc for 4 full lenghth ones for you pal,i'll keep you updated incase you dont get any in the meantime!!

My first reaction is the rear caliper bolts will be smaller. Interesting to see the outcome here. :)

Alrite Kenny, Croc's a forestry plant mechanic and fixes mega £ machines like tiger cats, forwarders and crazy stuff like that,anytime i need anything i bug him in the workshop. It'll be the glasgow meet im going to, are you there or is it falkirk for you?? i know the rear ones i have are too short BUT the thread size should be the same...sometime soon your front stoppers will look and perform like mine and many others...cheers John.
