2 Piston vs 4 Piston Caliper help
Hey Folks, I hit a roadblock trying to upgrade the brakes on my 89 GTU and was hoping someone here could point me in the right direction.
I've got some 4 pot brakes that I'm trying to upgrade to, but the fittings appear to be completely different where it mounts to the caliper.
I ordered the Mazdatrix SS braided line kit and the front hoses look too small by half and also don't have a caliper fitting.
Am I missing something?

It looks like the 4 piston calipers have a hardline that takes it to the shock, and then flex line up to the fender well. Oh well, at least it's a simple solution
