Just a bit of clarification (re-megatrons FS thread)
If 3rd gen brakes fit on 2nd gens, then evo brakes will fit on 2nd gens too yes?
Anyone ever done this? Just looking at possible brake upgrades now that im starting to make more power

if third gens fitted on a second gen...which they dont...different mounting bracket...
.......then why would everyone be asking if the second gen twin pots would fit on a third gen...
so...i dont think its gonna work...

3rd gen hubs need to go on, but AFAIk front sway bar mounts differently. Id love to get a 3rd gen hub and actually try it myself on the spare car. yeah Lynel been told the same thing, but hey....all you need is an adaptor bracket made up and anything will work
86_Elite -3rd gens use the same brake pads (in some models) but calipers do not fit.
now to just get these 296mm ralliart disc's I have here to work..

I run the 276mm 2nd Gen 3.0... so none of that will transfer with a 3rd gen?
EDIT
So if I was to pick up a set of evo calipers and rotors they wont bolt up at all?

What you mean by mounting braket? you mean the part that bolts up to the hub?
Cant make adapter plate? or too dodgey?
EDIT
If i am getting these coilovers off here then they already suited to 3rd gen hubs so that b sweet as yeahh? then ill have no dramas, just need custom tops for the coilovers for the 2nd gen
