#17416, "woah gsx brake upgrade?"


          

Woah Why are the calipers different and rotors. My talon came from the factory with rear rotors, however they take awd pads. Why if it is a fwd caliper. The rotor is real small too must be fwd. So How can I take awd pads in fwd calipers. The only pads that fit are for awd. Any thoughts. Or is my rear already upgraded from the factory. None of my calipers are dual piston.

I believe the rear disks are the same for all models, except for the 95 GSX which had vented rotors. Could be wrong though.

Yup ^^^^^^
All rear rotors are the same.. doesnt matter if the pads say AWD or FWd... unless you got front pads. As FasterGS stated the only different rear rotors were on the 95 GS which for some strange reason came with a vented rear rotor.

ok but what about the calipers? They are smaller than fwd's for some reason. And I have a 95 but the rear rotors are a single wall about 1/4" thick. Isn't vented double wall? And better? So how much to upgrade the front to awd?
