I went to the junkyard today to find some dual port disc brakes. I found a set but the guy was not sure which car are they from. Can any one identify from the pad which car would it be from? I took the pad from that guy because i did not have any camera there. Sorry for crappy pics. The disc was in 5 lugs not 4 lugs.

Your best bet is to ask on this site.

Tell us what car your wanting to put them on.

Someone in the US (where there are more options to choose from) can get them and ship you the correct stuff.

What do you want/need?

if you're looking to buy new pads to replace those with for the junkyard calipers, you'd be better off pulling a model # from the caliper.

yes i was looking to buy new pads to replace those, dont have any part number, thats why i took the pics, i thought some one might recognize them from the pics. I searched on google and found out that they were used in wide variety of mitsubishi cars including evo I, legnum etc. I guess i would have to visit the local parts market and hope to find them. Thanks any ways!

They look just like the regular 2-piston pads for the GVR4's, 93+ AWD dsms, Diamonte's, etc. Just goto a parts store and ask for pads for the GVR4. Match them up and you're set. Doesn't matter if it's 4 lug or 5, still use the same calipers (ie, same pads).

We did not have any vr4's or eclipses or any awd car for that matter from Mitsubishi, so if i go to any Mitsubishi dealer and ask them for vr4 pads they are like what the heck is a vr4 lol. I did found the brake pads, they are the same as jdm 7g galant pads, so my problem is over now /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Didn't bother to see the location....but yeah, a ton of larger mitsubishi vehicles used the 2-piston calipers. Glad you found what you needed.
