Hi folks, up for sale is the caliper and adapter portion of an Acura RL BBK which I purchased from Scottyknows007, but have decided to go another route.

This includes 2 clean Acura RL calipers which look to be in excellent shape and not in need of a rebuild any time soon, as well as the Fastbrakes RL adapter:

The original for sale thread is located here: https://acurazine.com/forums/car-par...rt-out-929660/

Pictures are included in the original thread as well.

I did not install them, but verified that everything was in excellent condition and extremely clean. It also comes with the Fastbrakes bracket instructions.

I'm looking for 300$ USD plus shipping & paypal fees. I think this is MORE than fair price-wise. I'm located in Toronto so shipping Canada wide is no problem, and of course stateside is no problem as well.

Cheers,
- Victor

 

shiit....what route you going lol?

 

Might just say screw it altogether for now, I still have a couple of things I want to pick up in the meantime

 

Had some interest but no one has pulled the trigger yet, so to the top! Shipping stateside is probably going to range from 40 - 50$ canadian, so with Paypal, we're probably looking at 350$ USD shipped and paypal'd

 

what else is needed to bolt up to the AT TL? The knuckle? rotors and pads obv

 

Nothing other than rotors and pads.

 

really? don't need a new/bigger knuckle?? our stock flex hoses/lines will bolt up too?

 

Unlike the 6MT Brembos, which would require a knuckle and tie rod swap, the RL Advics are radially mounted so they don't require anything other than an adapter bracket.

 

dayumm. lemme think about this

what year RL rotors and pads ?

 

Not RL rotors, you need 05, 06 350Z Brembo rotors and RL pads (at least those are the rotors needed with Pauls brackets, his are the originals) that is all you need to install them. I had them on my 06 they make a big difference

my

This is a good price (if you really don't need to rebuild the calipers)

kewl

 

Fastbrakes actually says that their brackets use 06 - 11 Nissan Maxima rotors which are 320x28 and shared between many Nissan/Infiniti vehicles, versus the Brembo 350Z rotors which are 324x30 and somewhat more rare.

People have made both work - It's likely that with the 324x30 rotors you would need to add spacers to push out the calipers, which shouldn't be much of an issue.

 

It would need new brake lines.

 

It actually doesn't, they bolt right up to the old ones.

 

Really? I know there were a couple of people couldn't get the brake lines to fit into the caliper.

 

There was a number of people that bought the wrong stainless lines if I recall, but I've yet to hear that you need new lines. The Accord folks have bolted their regular lines to these calipers for some time now, and as far as I can tell, the fitting for the TL is the same. Worst comes to worst, if they do require new lines, its an excuse to go stainless

 

so tempting.

 

Calipers are in great condition would have held onto them had my clutch not gone out.. bump for a legit Seller!


N1h1l1ty- sorry to hear that you that you weren't going to complete the build - but of course good luck with the sale!

 

Do you know if these will clear the a-spec wheels?

 

I'm on the fence, I might be keeping these to be honest.

They should clear the A-Specs, since they clear the stock 04-06 TL wheels.

 

lol so are they for sale or nah... lol

 

Ron, would you kindly close this thread for now? I think I'm going to hang on to these for the time being.

Sorry folks, I will let you know if they do go back up for sale.

 

 

 

I missed the opportunity to buy from Scottyknows007 (entire package) back then due to vacation. I've PMed you, but looks like you're keeping them eh?

 

Thanks for the reply. Just when I thought seriously about getting it...

It's good you're keeping them. I learn a lot about them in this thread. Sounds like a good way to go for the AT folks for BBK.

 

Yes, A spec wheels will clear the RL calipers
