    Brake equivalence for GTR

    Hi all. I would like to know if there is other brake pads than the oem that will fit in the GTR's oem calipers?

    Some say first gen Mazda 6 fits on 4 corners, other say rear fits with RX-7...

    Anyone has the exact answer plz? Thanx.

    1st gen rx7 pads will fit in the rear calipers but as far as I know there are no crossfit pads for the fronts. However, Porterfield makes pads that fit... call them and ask for the Sumitomo custombuilt ones that Jay in Seattle has them make. The R4S compound is a fine-n-dandy street pad and I use the enduro pad on the rallycar.
    '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
    '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

      I know EBC and Torax is available but the UK location makes the price and shipping crazy...

        Is there anything newer and better you can swap too? Are the stock pads hard to find?

          Yes there is a swap possible, I know front Milenia Calipers will fit with a bit of shimming and for rear I know Mazdaspeed discs fit and as you mentioned rear rx-7 1st gen pads fits. But right now im low on cash, I've spend 6k on the car in the last 5 months, kinda broke. I was just hoping to finds pads for now, and upgrade maybe next winter.
