I have just a quick question before i start an SR swap, i am in the early stages but i am going to do suspension and brakes first, is any of this going to affect to swap (ie. am i going to have to go back and replace any of these or use different parts then i would now.) i was going to go 4 lug slotted and drilled rotors and KEi office coilovers, thanks for the input in advance.

 

your engine has nothing to do with your suspension or brakes besides being able to handle the bit of extra power

 

I just thought i'd ask before i started the work, Im new to the swap but i just wanted to make sure you didnt need new axles hubs or anything like that. cause the worse thing to do is go back to something you've already done =/

 

the aluminum block sr is about ~100 (high) pounds lighter than the ka...brakes are a good idea though

 

thanks nsn.

 

brakes are always a good idea for any upgrade but make sure you go with quality parts. For ex. go with brembo slotted roters and maybe a project mu pads. It's only about $100 more overall but it will be alot cheaper in the long run. trust me, it will be worth it.

 

ok cool random, could you direct me to where i can get brembro slotted and xdrilled. also the pads to, going to start the work as soon as i sell the fcrx7. i think im going to need to find an lsd for the car also.

 

use google to find anything you need.

FYI slotted are better than alotted and cross drilled or dimple or anything else out there. 93% contact and no brake fade when paired with DOT 4 or 5 brake fluid.
