Technical Coupe brembos on a Punto gt

[TheAutopsy]

Hello guys, been doing some work on my GT, and I found a set of brembos from a coupe 20vt to put on. But I need the adapter. Has anyone have a model of the thing? I cant find nothing online with the dimensions of the bracket.
Any help would be much apreciated.
I feel like an archeologist trying to find all the things people used to do to the GT's back in the day

Maybe GTAntoni could help with this, he’s got them on his gt , don’t think the brembos will fit under the standard wheels either.

 

[TheAutopsy]

I know they wont fit the 14" original wheels. I have some 16" speedlines hoping they Will fit under them too

I wouldnt bother they are bulky and big and limit your wheel options, not to mention the performance isnt all that good and pedal feel is poor, i would opt for the 280mm brakes from a 16vt coupe with quality pads and discs

 

[TheAutopsy]

Well that would been very good information to know before buying the brembos
I guess I Will try them now that I have them.
Not gona lie, I also wanted them just to have them say brembo behind the wheel.
As for the performance, are they worst than the Originals?

And freemangt3 the coupe 16vt calipers fit on the punto without adapters?

Dont take this as gospel, but yes i believe so, i run fiat coupe 284mm discs on my car but with willwood dynalites

Hi freeman, the following question

is it possible to somehow get this on my 60s? im planning on swapping in a t-jet and a little more braking power wouldn't hurt anyone

I’d suggest a different platform to a 60, not only brakes but also suspension arms, springs, shocks, roll bars gearbox and potentially an entirely different rear suspension as well between yours and a Punto GT so even if they fit the GT they may not fit yours and without changing all those other bits the car could be unstable or unpredictable. Big brakes on the front a big engine and Punto 60 parts else where could result in the car switching ends or seeking hedges whenever you try to go to the shops.

These days a grande T-Jet can be had for less than the price of an engine swap.

No the coupe calipers don't bolt on they need an adapter bracket, which you could just buy years ago - I doubt anyone sells them these days but I'm sure the design and/or measurements exist somewhere on this forum or the puntosports forum

Way back when a mk1 punto was common, easily sourced for pennies and probably not rusty i might agree with this but now? a good base is a not rotten one now, getting a GT would be nice cause you get the nicer interior trim pieces and seats etc but if it was rotten i'd build a clean 55 over one all day long, everything is interchangeable. Parts are not hard to source yet, getting that way granted but its okay still. And even a rotten GT is silly money now also.
