Default Pics of my MILLED 25T caliper brackets, milled to much?

hey guys, I found a good deal on a set of Integra Type-R brand new oem calipers, aswell as a set of 25T brackets, they came pre-milled for a big brake upgrade. But I almost think TO much was milled.

Can anyone confirm my measurements are correct for removing the 3.2mm off of the bracket? Or how incorrect they are.



Im hoping someone has a brake bracket laying around, either stock or already milled, and can put a caliper on the knuckle mounting pad as I did in the picture so I can figure out how much has been milled

Thanks alot guys!

If I remember correctly you are suppose to remove 3mm so 3.2 should be ok. Have you tried mounting them up?

Im pretty sure MORE than 3.2MM was milled, thats why Im trying to find a measurement of a correctly milled, or completely stock bracket, so I can see how much was milled

No I havent tried bolting it up yet, still waitin on the brembo rotors

I will try and go measure mine. I have type r calipers waiting to go on my car and they are not milled. I am running Mini Cooper rotors so I shouldn't have to deal with that.

I'll take 23t measurements, just the area I have the caliper on

When you say the lip on the mounting side of the bracket, I think of exactly what I pictured, so im not sure what your asking for

No its not clear, the depth of that side doesnt start flush.

I did figure out that they were milled 5mm, so I will be making some 2mm shims
