R26 Brake Parts Tightening Torques

Discussion in 'Suspension, Brakes, Wheels & Tyres section' started by daveparkin, Dec 26, 2013.

  1. Hi all,

    Sorry if this has been answered before, but I have searched first.

    Can anybody tell me the correct tightening torques for the following bits:
    TRW rear caliper slider pin bolts
    TRW rear caliper bleed nipples
    Brembo front caliper bleed nipples

    I have seen a few contradicting values for some of these torques and would rather get it right.

    Thanks,

    Dave

    Torque settings won't work.... There a bitch to seal 99% of the time
     
  3. Thanks for the answer Mark.

    Was afraid somebody would say that - my last car was a 350z with Brembo calipers and after a fluid change at the main dealer (Nissan HPC), I had leaky nipples - ooh-err! the master tech there had a right job getting them to seal and in the meantime, it took paint off the calipers.

    Do you know the torque for the rear slider pin bolts on the red TRW calipers?

    Also, any good tricks to help the bleeders seal??

    Cheers,

    Dave
