The N.E.R.P. Aluminum brake backing plate and associated components are specifically designed for your vehicle. The backing plate has been designed to fit without any modifications to it. The inlet scoop is intended to be mounted to the lower control arm and connected to the backing plate by a 500°F duct hose. All components have been designed to work efficiently together to maximize the cooling capability of the total unit. Now let's get started.

Directions:

1. Properly lift and support the front end of the car, and remove the wheels.
2. Remove the brake calipers by removing the "C" clip that secures the brake lines to the struts along with the two bolts that secure the calipers to the strut and support them in a way not to damage the brake lines.
3. Remove the dust cap on the hub in order to gain access to the spindle clamp nut.
4. Remove the nut by loosening the screw that clamps it to the threaded spindle. You can now carefully remove the hub and bearings, being careful not to let the front bearing fall out.
5. Line up the bolt holes and bolt the backing plate to the spindle. Just snug the bolts at this time. Now carefully place the hub and rotor back onto the spindle and check the clearance between the backing plate and the brake rotor. The clearance can be adjusted by using shim washers behind the backing plate. Make sure that the backing plate does not rub on the rotor in the bearing seal location. When satisfied with the fit, the bolts can then be tightened to factory specs.
6. Install the scoop to the lower control arm. One method is to position the scoop on the underneath of the control arm and with a pencil mark the scoop in 3-4 locations to drill holes for the tie wraps. Drill the holes in the scoop and secure it with the supplied tie wraps. The debris screen can be installed before or after the scoop has been secured. You can press the debris screen in and drill holes and secure it with pop rivets if desired.
7. Install the hose between the scoop and the backing plate securing at both ends with the supplied hose clamps.
8. Re-install the hub spindle clamp nut and adjust and tighten to factory recommendations.
9. Place the rotor back onto the hub.
10. Re-mount the brake calipers and tighten the bolts to factory specifications. You should also re-install the c-clip that connects the brake line to the strut at this time. With the car still up on the jack stands, rotate the steering back and forth to check for any interference. If all checks fine, then re-attach the road wheels, torque and lower the car.
