Hi, i wanna ask that can i fit the brake Caliper And Disc into a Myvi knuckle ?

I understand at it ill need a custom bracket , but the disc has 5-Lug Nut with PCD 112 .

Or i just went to buy a ready made oversize brake kit for Myvi are better option?

Thanks for any advance =)
 
Hey there bro..why u want to use the merc brake?im not sure whether it can fit or not..mainly people will convert to honda or toyota brake system and u can get it cheaper than ur customised brake system..nowadays they're selling honda prelude bb4 brake system about rm480–550 including bracket,and the brake pad price also quite reasonable..im running a bb4 brake system on my myvi now,so far no problem and satisfied with it..:driver:
 
look up "lan engineering" in mudah, he has a few 4pot big brakes with disc at his shop
located somewhere in pandan indah ampang.

Because i already upgrade my SLK brake system already so the stock one is left unused at the store room ..... If can i dont wanna waste it lo .
 
caliper brackets can be made...no problem...

u can have the rotor redrilled to the correct pcd...

only problem would be the rotor tophat aka rotor hub...gotta make sure its not too deep or too shallow.

n then of course theres the rim clearance
 
rim hard to find 112/expensive then you have to stick to merc's rim only lol
 
SLK200 on a Myvi? Wah.. Interesting project!

1. You'd need to change the hub to a 5 spoke
2. Custom brake caliper bracket
3. Larger rims
4. Possibly upgraded brake servo as well?

And I'm just guessing the calipers are probably pretty heavy too. The Myvi's performance might be affected, unless you're driving the 1.5 version? Then maybe not so bad.

If you do go ahead with this, please document everything with photos! I wanna see this
 
dun forget to convert your rear to disc brakes as well.. else car will nose dive when you press the brake and drift if you hit e-brake.. personally experience that before in my previous picanto with RVR brakes conversion and rear drum.. car drifted during rain when i hit e-brake.. luckily nothing happened..

I ill have some measurement 1st to ensure the caliper will clear the 15" rims 1st , if not i ill just install the ready made brake kit from Honda .

Will update at here =)
