17" sure can clear... offset 40 is ok..but best is 38 below la...
Kepong there got a shop custom the bracket for any pot into any car... bout rm200-300 per side... the main problem will be the offset of the rotor..

if i not mistaken, when the 4 port goes in... you cannot downgrade to 15' already... always must maintain 17 above...

correct me if i'm wrong...

Basically the Nissan 4 pots are even cheaper than Evo Twin Pots the last I heard
(I'm assuming you're talking about the R32 GTS 4 pot version.)
The most expensive part is the bracket you need to make to fit the Nissan braking system...

You can also get the GTO 4 Pot with bracket also - as there are ppl actually custom making to fit Wira/ Satria/ Putras... go search... abit more expensive then the above, altogether I think RM1200 + - but it looks much better and bigger.....to me at least..... (The calipurs with the Mitsu sign)... its all up to you.... :biggrin:

Bro, why not you try twin pot 1st? Match with good pads sure sedap!
But if u want 4 pot just upgrade ur servo to bigger ones as well otherwise.......

Sifus, if we use 4pots front but back stil using single pot will it make the braking be kinda off balance? Thx:driver:

Well... Many ppl don't really care if its not balance.... unless you're a pro driver, racing in tracks etc.. lol.. then you must know exactly what you want ler...

But I heard from somewhere the best would be like 60% front - 40% back, thats If you wanna calculate exactly ler..... :biggrin:

Twin pots with good pads is good enough... (There is another post on brakes I replied the other day... :biggrin:)
Unless you want 4 pots for shows, no problem... up to individual....
Just don't put the 'Brembo calipur cover' :banghead:... my 2 cents :biggrin:
