So, I think I want to do this mod/upgrade.

One thing that confuses me with all these threads is that they say the 2004 Sonata 11" rotors have to be the ABS ones. I don't know how this works since I have a non-ABS Elantra. Does it not matter at all?

So if it doesn't matter I simply need:

2 11" Sonata ABS rotors from a 2004 Sonata
2 Tiburon calipers from a ?year? Tiburon
2 Tiburon brake pads (EBC or Hawk)

Should I buy the rotors and calipers new? Can the calipers be used and still work?

 

[SuperGLS]

Why have you had to change the rotors so much?

 

[SuperGLS]

I see.

So am I right guys, does me not having ABS matter for this swap?

Also, what's the best place to buy these parts?

 

[SuperGLS]

I don't care ABS/non-ABS in general, I'm just wondering if it matters getting Sonata ABS rotors on a non-ABS Elantra.

 

[SuperGLS]

They've been tested to fit under both the GT Alloys and the steel wheels. To get them to fit under the GT alloys you might need to have pads that aren't brand new.

Thanks Tricked. I'll never buy anything again from someone on NT since I got ripped off last time, I'm going to look to buy new (I forgot my local junkyard doesn't have any GK Tibs).

 

[SuperGLS]

Haha, yeah I know, I saw that thread (among the many others). I was more worried about the ABS thing and about new/used parts.

Bob, can you let me know where you ordered the parts from? Thanks.

 

[SuperGLS]

Thanks Bob, it's all good. Plus I don't want you to kill me. Thanks Derek, I'll look into that.

Bob, looking forward to hearing what you think about this combo.

What do you guys think of these options?

Tiburon calipers (right, and left, used):

Is that all I need? Some of the other caliper photos include more parts (or what looks like more parts).

Sonata rotors:

I want OEM looking ones, nothing slotted or drilled.

 

[SuperGLS]

I must be a noob, because I couldn't find any JUST slotted Sonata 11" rotors online anywhere. They are either both, or neither.

 

[SuperGLS]

Good stuff Bob.

The rotors I linked to on the previous page are "OParts" brand. Is there any real difference between the various no-name brands?

 

[SuperGLS]

I think I have to pass on this for now (and instead just get new brake pads and new tires which will take all my money).
