Question JDM 4 piston calipers on USDM FC3S?

Hello everyone,

I am looking to upgrade the brakes on my 87 FC with a four piston setup I've found off of a JDM FC. Is this a bolt in affair? Did a search but got no results. What about the JDM 5 lug spindles? I am also wanting to convert my car over to the 5 lug setup at the same time so does anyone have any parts that would let me do this as well?

Thanks,
Vincent

I have absolutely no clue, but common sense tells me they are a direct swap.

too many useless replies in this thread.

Anyways you should be good to go.
Dont think there was any differences between the jdm and usdm chassis as far as brakes.

its a direct bolt on almost everything from a jdm car will blot onto a usdm car and vice versa the major differences are steering and wiring b/c the whole rhd thing
