Brakes Brake Upgrade Discussion (Discs / Pads / ... )

I guess. Yeah. Stock is 345mm.
 
Talked to the guys. Seems there is an error on the website. The big brake with 365mm will have 6 pistons
 
They have wrong information and pictures on their own page. It is visible from photos (pictures from Hyundai i30N) that there are different calipers (6-piston) than on other photos from discs and calipers (4-piston).
 
Hi guys,
Do you know if it's possible to fit N Performance 275 brakes on Non-Performance 250?
N Performance has bigger caliper, 345mm discs and 19" wheels instead of 330mm of Non Performance with 18".
Are the caliper mountings the same?

There are lots of used sets available on market and brakes should fit 1:1 but you must also change dust covers too.
In facts my concern is that I have 18" rims and with an aftermarket upgrade maybe I will have problems of clearance for the caliper.
 
What about this brake kit for the I30N Performance, it sure looks tasty? Will changing the brakes void the warranty or better to wait until after warranty expires.

Does anyone know if the stretch bolts/need replacing, when fitting this kit or can anyone upload a copy of the hyundai workshop manual to figure out what would be needed.

Hi guys,

Im thinking about the alfa romeo 156 gta and 147 gta.These cars use 330mm disc but the calipers and radials so you can put a washer to use the oem disc.The hub mounting holes of the adapter of the alfa caliper is 130mm,the same as the Hyundai.Now im looking to get a cheap one and try

Short answer, YES...

Longer answer: As with most modifications on driveline or important safety features, replacing the brakes with aftermarked parts introduce a HIGH RISK of voiding the warranty for any damage that can remotely be traced back to the modified part.

If you modify the exhaust, dealer can void a warranty claim on the turbo.

Modification may be cool, but can have huge impact on the warranty...
 
@Mightymoo I understand and possibly in your country but not elsewhere.

You won't lose a warranty, not on an exhaust or even a downpipe. Such modifications are permitted in most countries and are supported by the Hyundai Assurance Track Warranty.

Replacing brakes won't either. Hyundai is obligated by their own warranty to service OEM parts. If you change the rotors, calipers and pads, to upgraded units, it's on you. They won't service the upgraded units under warranty. However, you won't lose any portion of the warranty, if you revert back to the OEM units later.

Ahh thank you for all who replied yes, I though as much anyway so best to wait until the car is out of warranty. I just like the style of calliper do you think that is a good price for the whole kit or is it priced very expensively.

So maybe I will wait and buy later when warranty is no longer an issue as I would get the car serviced at my local garage.
 
The question regarding voiding warranty or not is usually: did the modified part cause the damage you want to claim warranty for? If yes, warranty is no option. If not, warranty should cover the damage. However, if there are modified parts even remotely connected to any damage, HY might put the blame on these and it’s up to you to prove the opposite. Not impossible but definitely a pain in the a...

Regarding brakes: I’d stick to better pads, fluid, braided brake lines and maybe new rotors and if you really want to track that thing hard I’d go for something which is known around racing (which forge is not, sorry to say so).

Very informative a detailed reply I have taken on board what you have said and will look into something else as suggested. So thank you again for the heads up.
 
Yes the Hyundai warranty will cover the damaged or part failure if it's OEM, not aftermarket.

Here in the US we have the Magnuson-Moss Act to protect us from such claims from the manufacturer. I not aware of any equivalent in Europe.

Primarily, the M-MA states, "a manufacturer must prove without a doubt, a related aftermarket part is directly responsible for the failure. If it was an OEM part failure, then it can't be linked to aftermarket part.

The Forge brake system is a racing system upgrade. They're utilized in club and professional racing, primarily in the UK but nevertheless an official racing system. They're produced braking systems for many different models. They're are more than adequate and capable of handling the rigors of; track racing, drifting, autocross hill climbs, drag racing etc.
