Gen1 vs Gen2 calipers

[Alax7]

Are the calipers between the years interchangeable? Do 00-02 calipers fit 03-06?

I just checked lskoncepts. Brake pads are interchangeable. And teh brake upgrade packages are not separated into gen1/gen2 varieties. So my guess is the calipers are the same.

But on second thought, I don't think the brake lines are the same in the rear. Don't know if that makes a difference.

The lines are not the same on the rear according to rich from rotorpros. I would just need the calipers to match up

You know who may be able to answer that, is Max. See if it's the same part #.

Send Joegr or whoever a PM, he'll know.

I think joe knows more on the gen2. It wouldn't hurt though.

Just for future reference in case anybody else needs to know. Max was very helpful and provided me with this information.

Nov 18 2002 through Apr 12 2006 use the same rear calipers P/N 2R8Z-2552/3-CA
Mar 22 1999 through July 17 2005 use the same front calipers P/N 3W4Z-2B120/1-AB

 

[pektel]

So just the front calipers then. I am assuming that an LS produced on 11/02 would be an 03 model.

Yeah, thats what i was thinking. Like for this year, the 2011 models will prob be on the lot around october of this year, 2010. It was made in 2010 but it's an 2011 model.
