Why dont these work with big brakes? I have an ap racing front kit and was hoping to get gktech grip knuckles, but this is making me think I cant

I read that the brake mounts are located below stock location which makes rotors hit the bj. I think they fixed it for v3. grip ones are v3 so they should work

Edit : correction, "calipers would hit the bj" is what I read.

They do work with light modification. I have them on my s13 with ctsv 4 piston calipers.

I was just curious if they changed the design for the v3 to accommodate BBK, fully aware they are different revisions

Mr.slipngrip · 11-22-2018, 05:20 PM

Well hey I just notice I have the V3 knuckles on my S13 sorry for the bad info lol.

Honestly all depends on what kind of bracket ur using for which calipers. i can tell you right off the back the kits from CTSVswap.com for both 4 pistons and 6 piston wont work with these knuckles. Although ECP brackets and 17z porsche calipers, and a full ROTORA BBK will work with these knuckles.

Correct! I happen to have 14" (355mm) rotors which are not common with our cars, i want to avoid building all new bracket for my setup. Plus my car is not super low in front to benefit from rc correction. so i would rather invest on rear knuckles to eliminate some old bushings.

bump still have this!

4 piston will work. I PM'd back and forth with gk and ctsv bake swap to get a solution.
