Just go to a brake shop and have hardlines made at that point and move the tabs at the same time, you would need to make propper mounts to hold the hose correctly may as well just get little hardlines made and move it, but personally I just went back to stock holes. Need to put my tein flex z back on soon, I want some 5mm spacers.

Most likely, I’ll be installing my conversion next weekend. I think I know what I’m going to do with what I have. |

Get the calipers meant for the Yaris, and the cable length will not be of any concern. |

You guys taught me something, to not use a long one piece hose, unless it’s braided. But I think I’ll just stick with what I already have. The bracket relocation is easy. I think I know what to do now, and hope to install next weekend. I need to use the drill press at work. |

Change of plan…
I went ahead and bought the Yaris calipers….
As I suspected, the caliper carrier’s bolt patterns are the same for the Corolla and Yaris. I went ahead and drilled the holes for the hub to clock the calipers at 3 and 9 o’clock. Don’t worry, if I reproduce them they won’t look like Swiss cheese… |

The new brakes went from under 200% to almost 300% braking by mass on the brake testing machine when I got the last warrant and the pads had not worn in yet. |

good thinking on the dual clocking
brz twin pots on such a lil gokart would be down right insanity....you would have to be running atleast a 245 to be able to even use them!!!! |

BRZ twin pots...
The twin pots caliper are for the front though right?
The BRZ's front rotors are 326mm in diamenter!!! But they're 5X100 PCD. The 2nd GEN Scion xB's front rotors are only 275mm in diameter compare to the BRZ/FRS, and they're 5x114.3 PCD. I wonder how far the BRZ's front calipers will stick out when mounted on the Yaris' steering knuckles? I hope not too far out for 275mm rotors... You'd definitely would need to get at least 16in wheels for them to fit. I'll keep this in the back of my mind... |

its not about sticking out its about bolting them onto the correct mount to bring them down to the 275 rotor

Well, that's what I kind of mean or need to know. How far will the caliper move out when it's mounted on a Yaris' steering knuckle? Will it be the same as the BRZ where you can house a 326mm rotor or will it be in like the Yaris SE/Corolla/xD? Or is there a different caliper carrier that it can be Frankenstein with and dial it for a 275mm rotor if you want to do a 5X114.3 PCD. Could I just make an adaptor plate and move out the xD calipers that I have to house 275mm rotors? But then the pads won't follow the same contour as the rotor. Would that really matter? I've thought about using a 2nd GEN xBs steering knuckle, but looking at the holes, I don't think it'll mount to the Yaris' strut. You could probably use the xBs strut, but use the Yaris' top hat? For the rear rotors, since it's solid, I could just mill down the xBs 279mm rotors down to 259mm, and still use the stock Yaris SE calipers. I don't think I can do that to the front rotors since they're finned. Or use the 279mm rotors, but will definitely need to install a proportioning valve, since the rear rotors are bigger. |

Brackets made…
I made the brackets out of aluminum angle, I couldn’t find anything else that’s 1/16in thick. Well at least I know they won’t corrode, and they’re strong enough that I can’t fold them by hand. I cheaped out and made my own retaining clips too…
Once I position them on the axle frame, I’ll drill holes on the base and rivet them down. Yeah I know not welded, but it should still work. I also made two extra ones with smaller hole, incase the hoses I’m relocating are differently designed than this hose. The hose in the pic is one that will connect to the caliper. I don’t know why the first pic is upside down… |

if you want "new" look for street rod hose mounts, if you want quick n dirty either cut some off a TRUCK/SUV...or even a car..tho on a car its hard to get enough materiel left to mount them you can even look at clutch hose mounts, it only needs to fit the hose not the car, alot of the street rod ones are either studded for mounting or threaded for mounting so its easier to slap em in and be done also aluminum on aluminum can and WILL corrode in fairly short order |
