Difference between GA16 b13 calipers and B13 SE-R calipers

B12SportCoupe · 04-06-2010, 03:50 PM

ok so the AD18VB's and the brakes on a GA b13 (i think they may be AD18VE's) are either identical, or similar. they GA brakes fit under 13" wheels, whereas the the SE-R brakes supposedly only fit under 14" and bigger.

i'm wondering because i'm doing a brake upgrade for my b12, and want to go with 13X7 wheels and 215/50/13 race tires for events.

could anyone shed some proper light on the situation? i have no interest in AD22's. they're too big and unnecessary for the application.

are the B13 GA calipers AD18VE's or something else?

GA and SR B13s do not have the same front calipers.

The GA uses a CL18VD caliper and the rotor is 10mm smaller in diameter.

damn, thought they used an AD series, not the weak ass CL's. ok, thanks a lot for your help! pulsar SE calipers it is.
