BIG BRAKE KIT - 320mm
After a few evenings of searching factory brake options for the T-5R that fit under the Titans I discovered the stock setup is 280mm,i could easily go up to 302mm y changing the hanger and disc only.
I could also go to 320mm as this was a factory option but near impossible to find. AP Racing also brought out a kit specific to the 850 in the mid 90s... Again difficult to find.
DVS offers a 320mm kit so I've opted for this setup.... It deviates from my values of keeping factory but it can easily be swapped back.
Snippet from the accessory booklet shows 320mm option:
I spoke with Ash Davies in person at the 200 series 50th anniversary meet at Shannon's a couple weeks back. He offered some fantastic advice and insights into my future coilover purchase.
Here's some shots of my 320mm setup with rebuilt Calipers - they're from an XR5 but the v50 t5 AWD uses exact same Caliper.
I already have the braided hose installed and plan to paint these with vht paint (cast iron colour) as the T-5R came from factory without Caliper paint so it originally had the 'cast iron' look.
Just need to choose the correct shade:
