It would be much easier on the Chevy, since the Camaro and the S-10 both have 5-lug hubs.

 

The Pathfinder has a 6-lug hub, and there's no sports cars with a 6-lug hub. You'd have to go with a FSC Rear Disc brake or something like that to retain your lug pattern so you can still rotate tires.

Yea i'm not quite sure about the bolt holes but it fits tight around the hub and that's what counts ;)

 

And yes, I won't denie that everything pretty much bolted up without a problem. The guy selling them only had one backing plate bracket that held the caliper so I made the passenger side one myself. I also had to adapt the brake lines to the caliper lines.

 

Its not that hard to build backing plates and they can be put around any rotor (provided the rotor and caliper agree in thickness). So what other vehicles have the same bolt pattern as our Pathfinders? I suppose a pair of rotors could be drilled out as well.

You're right, it'd be difficult to find... FSC rear disc brake? :scratchhead:

I guess a Titan/Armada/QX56 swap would be just stupid $$$... WD21 Pathy no good? :shrug:

Titan and company have the 6x4.5 i thought....were the discs on the WD any good? Id imagine thats the most likely bet

I'm pretty sure the Titan and co. bolt pattern is the same as the R50 (6x5.5) because I know the R51 has the 6x4.5. If that's the case I think more research is needed on this whole Brembo kit for the Titan/Armada/QX56 and if it could be applied to the R50. :scratchhead:
