JustGav Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 If they are UK brakes they will just go straight on.. The only slight mod is to the shield, ie need to get an stretch it out a bit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAG Posted April 3, 2007 Author Share Posted April 3, 2007 Cheers for that lads.I was thinking about a set of 18" ULTRALITE NURBURGRINGS do you know if these would be suitable?cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Cheers for the lads.I was thinking about a set of 18" ULTRALITE NURBURGRINGS do you know if these would be suitable?cheers. speak to Paul Whiffin mate, he's an Ultralight stockist and will be able to advise on UK brake fitment and offsets etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 As said, the larger spec Supra brakes are a straight swap, except you will either need to trim or remove the dust cover behind your disks. I have the front 4 pot brakes in stock if needed, see details here; http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=98436 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
