12" to 13" OEM front rotors swap

[MMamdouh]

here we go again... now with the 14" rims installed i have room for bigger rotors, i am thinking of getting the 13" rotors and calipers from a Nubira (same as the brake setup you got on the 1.6 lanos) so what do you think??

i have made a list of parts i have to get if i decided to go with this project:

1- Nubira 13" rotors.
2- Nubira front calipers.
3- Nubira front caliper bracket.
4- Nubira rotor splash scheild.
5- Nubira master cyilnder.
6- Nubira front brakes pads.

did i miss something?? i am sure it is worth to do this mod as good brakes makes you faster not to mention that is safer... need your opinion guys.

Good idea!

I agree w/ Kinky, great Idea

Your brakes will improve. Good luck with the setup.

ummm the stock lanos rotors are 10" and if you are going to put 13" rotors on then you will need to get rim size 17" +. and i think the nubi has a 10" rotor also

i have upgraded my rotors to a big brake kit on my lanos and its a 12" rotors and bearly fits a 16" rim size

remember that big brakes make your car slower off the line but will stop way faster

i am not too sure of the correct diameters of the rotors so i can be mistaken about them.

indeed the lanos got the same rotors that the nubira got but thats on the 1.6 lanos and the 2.0 nubira... on the 1.5 lanos we got small rotors and they are as big as the ones on the matiz , the 1.6 nubira however got the same rotor size regardless of the engine type.

While you are at it, you may as well look for a braided brake line kit to go with all those upgrades. The braided lines offer much better braking performance than the stock rubber lines. Other than that, I think you got everything covered.

i think its worth it if you need better stoping power

As far as I know the rotors on all Lanos' are the same (my Cielo has the same diameter but they are not vented, but solid discs). Not sure about what's on the Nubira 2.0, but the front rotors are identical to the Lanos on the 1.6L versions.

found out that the offset of the nubira rotors is different than the one for the lanos rotors... the nubira got 6mm more offset

also the calipers of both cars are very different... actually the difference is in the brackets, the piston part is the same
