There are some spec that you need to know before searching any part that may fit GTi hub.
- car - year -rotor diameter (mm) - hub diameter(mm) - rotor hat height(mm)- boltpattern
- Suzuki Swift GT - 1989 to 1994 - 250mm - 60,1mm - 50mm- 4x114,3mm
And there are the spec of other car
- car - year -rotor diameter (mm) - hub diameter(mm) - rotor hat height(mm)
- Honda Accord 4 cyl - 1990 to 2002 - 259,8mm - 64,10mm - 47mm
- Acura CL 2,3l - 1998 to 1999 - 259,8mm - 64,15mm - 47mm
- Honda Prelude Si - 1992 to 1996 - 262mm - 64,1mm - 47,1mm
- Acura Legend - 1986 - 262mm - ? - 51,2mm
11inchs rotor (you need a custom bracket if you want those rotor to fit the caliper)
- Honda Prelude Vtech - 1992 to 1996 - 282mm - 64,1mm - 47,1mm
- Nissan Altima - 1993 to 2001 - 282mm - 66,1mm - 49,2mm
- Acura Legend coupé - 1987 - 282mm- ? - 51,2mm
After that I think that you can start your search
There is a link to download the wilwood catalog:

http://www.4shared.com/file/61890449/ca18b526/140-7015.html Note: if you use the lancer hat, that have a bolt circle of 8x7,00'' you will have to use 12,19'' rotor(160-5843) because 11'' rotor(160-5840) have a bolt circle of 6x6,25''. If you want to use 11'' rotor, you need custom made hat or use one piece rotor from an other car that came with 11'' from OEM.
There is something to know about the honda caliper bracket, is that they do not have the same dimension if you take a kit that is disgned to suit the Honda 240mmOE hub or the Honda 262mmOE hub. As you can see in the document follow, there is two different part number for the Honda big brake(

Hi Gabriel, Thank you for your interest in Wilwood products. The difference in the brackets has to do with the brake rotor size. The 250-6290 is for the 240mm rotor & the 250-6289 is for the 262mm rotor. These brackets are identical except the is 1 3/16" from the bracket mounting holes to the caliper mounting holes & the 250-6289 is 1 11/16" from the bracket mounting holes to the caliper mounting holes. These measurments are from the bolt hole center to center. I hope this helps you out. If you have any other questions please feel free to email me anytime. Hope you have a great day.
Thanks, Jeff Williams

Hello, I have search and found nothing. Can you send me a pdf file or a cad file of those caliper bracket (250-6290 and 250-6289). I want to know what is the difference between those two brackets. Is the caliper will be mounted further on a bracket than the other. One bracket is designed for a kit for 240mm oe disc and the other is designed for 262 oe disc.
Thanks you
Gabriel
To this, I know that my custom bracket have approximatly 1 11/16" (+- 1/8) from the bracket mounting holes to the caliper mounting holes, that maybe means that the 250-6290 bracket is a bolt on issue form the 12'' wilwood caliper conversion.
