![17 Wheel Fitment Test: AP Racing BBK vs. Akebono GTR Brake Upgrade
Many GTR owners choose the Akebono budget brake upgrade, but is it the right move for your build? In this deep-dive technical comparison, I test the Speed Performance Lab AP Racing BBK against common Akebono adapter kits to reveal the hard truth about wheel fitment, unsprung weight, and engineering safety on the R32, R33, and R34 GTR chassis.
If you’re struggling to clear 17 wheels like the Volk CE28 or NISMO LMGT4, this video demonstrates why proper CAD-engineered brackets outperform universal off-the-shelf solutions. We weigh the calipers, test clearance gaps, and look at the long-term impact on your drivetrain.
What’s Inside This Technical Comparison:
The 17 Wheel Fitment Test: Real-world clearance testing on Volk CE28s.
The Weight Penalty: Exactly how much unsprung mass the Akebono pig adds per side.
Engineering Red Flags: Why cheap adapters can cause uneven pad wear and safety risks.
The 7075-T6 Advantage: Why aircraft-grade aluminum is non-negotiable for track-driven GTRs.
Consumable Math: How 370Z sport rotors save you the GTR Tax at the track.
