Brembo (6-Speed) Caliper Torque Spec

Does anyone have the torque spec for the mounting bolts for the 6-speed Brembo calipers? Couldn't find anything in search.

The brembos don't have bolts, they use pins, and you remove them with the "special tool", which is really only a 3.5mm punch.

I think he means the bolts that hold the calipers to the steering knuckle.
If so it looks like there are (2) 14x1.5mm bolts that hold the calipers. Page 19-19 shows them. Torque to 170Nm or 125 lbf-ft Man that sounds high considering the rear caliper bracket mounting bolts are only 41 lbf-ft. Sorry, I don't have a scan to post

Thanks, adobeman. That's two pages (A/T and M/T specs) I haven't scanned, but I'll do it later and post it in the brake pad replacement thread already in the 3G Garage.

Thanks guys. That's the number I needed.
FYI... inside pad had just started to go metal to metal at 48k miles. They are much larger bolts than the standard sliding caliper, thus the mush higher torque spec.
