Not interested in 98+

How can one tell the difference by looking at a set off the car?

Brackets have specific bolt pattern different from 98+ itr

Also bleeder screw is 11mm, oddball size only on 97

Do you have pics of the differences? I thought all ITR cars had an offball sized bleeder screw.

'97 Center to center is ~ 3 3/8"

'98+ Center to center is ~ 3 7/8"


*The '98 Bracket fits on '97 caliper body and vise versa*...The only difference is this mounting point, which bolts to the RTA spindle.

If '97 RTA, you have to use '97 caliper bracket
If 98+ RTA, you have to use the '98+ caliper bracket
Caliper body itself all match in size
