Rear brake conversion..not neon..
Friday, October 13, 2006 7:41 AM
I am not a newbie!! I haven't been on the site in about 8 months because I was having trouble with a stereo install with a big name store all summer!! There used to be a sticky on the conversion using a good kit but it is gone. I have searched and keep getting the neon conversion which I don't want to do. I have gone 25 pages in from the front and 20 from the rear and can't find it. Any of you older guys know where it is located. PLEASE!!!!

There's the N-Body f/r swaps (using the IRS swap in the rear...)

Also,there's a Fiero...

other than that and the big brake kits, not sure what else there is...

You mean using Corvette calipers and a custom bracket? Check out the Suspension forum on either Beretta.net or bstuff.com, and you'll find it.

I have a set of plates that will allow you to use a few different types of calipers (GM was so nice to somewhat universalize their mounting points for calipers for the last 10 years or so). There are options you can use. Some will require the redrilling of a set of rotors, some will not. This is probably the swap your talking about. BlkCav probably has the same plates. You just need to get the calipers, caliper brackets, and rotors from a donor car, and these will bolt behind your hub to mount the calipers on.
