Has any1 put t18 brakes on the ke30 before and how hard?
I checked out the wheel bearing part numbers are the same. both cars run sumitomo calipers as well. would it be a straight bolt on to use the disk, caliper and backing plate?
Thanx in advance to any advise.

I think it'd be a bit like pissing in the ocean; if you want to upgrade the brakes, try something a bit bigger!

ke30 218mm discs up to te72 230mm
i believe the caliper backing plates on te72s are different too, so you'd need to swap in the whole strut, and steering arm which may be longer and make your steering slower
really it's not worth it. use ae86 struts, ae86 p/s arms, and the common series 4 rx7 brake upgrade everyone does to ae86s. or use cressida/corona struts like on the toymods tech article
