Well,
From what I understand about the upgrade, steel lines are a nono.
If you have rear drums and steel lines you will have a bad locking problem.

(P.S. I got a digicam for my birthday. Hopefully in the next 5 weeks or so can convice the powers that be to allow me to get AD22VF's. I foud a place that wil help me (lift the car, remove the shield, and let me photodocument it). stay tuned...)

dude if you need THAT much help you probably shouldnt be fucking with your brakes. just a suggestion. Cause, those are for stopping after all. If it was for going then no big deal

but, you know, good luck and all. If you've changed brake pads you should be able to do this. Also keep in mind I have heard you have to have larger wheels than stock

if i remember correctly the nx2000 came with 14's stock..so if your running 13 inch steelies your gonna be S.O.L. by the way im gonna be doing this upgrade soon just wondering how much your getting the calipers and rotors for?

Niss200SXGTR · Dec 20th, 2002, 06:04 PM

Niss200SXGTR · Dec 21st, 2002, 05:06 PM

Hey joe, let me ask you, can you install breaks over at the shop? i just wonder about the brake line.. like.. i dunno how it works.. how to tighten/loosen it.. I'll have to invite you over, when we both get them. hehe

Well,
Looks like I don't have to do the photos and writeup of the install:
