Somebody told me that Cobra, GT, and V6 rear brake calipers were all the same on SN95's just different size rotors. Is that true?

yes, the cobras use a different (thinner) pad and different brackets, but thats all.

Caliper is the same.

The pads on the Cobra are thinner due to the thicker rotor. They are just GT/V6 pads shaved down a bit. Worn GT pads will fit fine.

The U=shaped bracket that holds the pads and the caliper bolts to is different. On the Cobra it is connected in front for more strenght and has a wider slot for the thicker CObra rotor. The Gt/V6 bracket can just be grinded slightly wider. Not much to really take off.


And of course, the axle brackets, rotors and anti-moans are different. Dust shields are the same
