Hi All,

I have a set of 380 front brake pads (Bendix General CT's) and wondering if these can be interchanged on the Twin Piston 3rd gen AWD/Ralliart calipers??

Its kind of a cross-section question hence posting in tech torque :P

Thanks!

The 380 are a different part number, I would say the difference is in the bracket by the looks of the pad

380 brakes will fit 3rd gen with NO mods

you will need 380 calipers, 380 rotors, 380 pads, and 380 brake hoses these will all bolt on to 3rd gens with no mods

megatron, i was asking if 380 brake pads fitted twin piston magna calipers. I already have the pads, and have bought magna twin piston calipers

oic, my mistake

NO they will not fit

the ralliart pads are a wider pad, the 380 are a skinnier and longer pad

I think if you read the OP it tells you everything you will need to know

Just a reminder the rotors aren't interchangeable either. There seems to be a bit of confusion about this cropping up from time to time because the both rotors are the same diamter (294mm). However the 380 rotor is 4mm thicker so obviously they aren't interchangable.

yup i was aware of the rotor difference. I intend to purchase those seperately :)
