Pic of the caliper bracket I made to mount the Commodore Calipers on the H190 housing. Also acts as the retainer for the wheel bearing.

Im guessing because its a pure race car only, no need for cable operated handbrake and over all less weight than the bluebird assembly.

But Ive seen the rear skyline assembly on a h190 and the setup looks very light with finned alloy calipers, minimalist brackets etc so its not a question of weight but are they adequate to pull up a lightweight car when pintara rear brakes are designed to stop around 1450kgs???
I like the top mounting though great for balance.

 Re: Brake Caliper Bracket
Benny is spot on, no need for handbrake on this one. Weight and performance are also an issue. Everything on the car is designed as light as possible (within the budget anyway). I figure this set-up will compliment the Series 4 RX7 front brake set-up pretty well. Plus I run a Willwood adjustable pedal box - brake balance should not be a problem - fingers crossed
