Do I need to buy new bolts for Brembo?

Get a fitting kit as well. You are bound to have problems with the pins. No need for new bolts just put a bit on Loctite on the originals.

The brake torque specs are for dry thread torque. As a word or advice to anyone who may not appreciate that Liquid loctite will raise the torque required considerably (as would any lubricant - hence a reason why you should never copper grease on a dry thread setup because you screw up torque setting). So, if a thread locker, is applied then ensure it has dried on the thread ahead of torquing the bolt. This would be your yellow or blue banding commonly seen on the threads of new bolts.

Exactly.

Just a word of warning for those not so technically minded, you can’t use ordinary loctite-type products, let them dry out on a bolt, then expect them to work, -they won’t. They are anaerobic, which means they cure in the [i]absence[/i] of air, you’ll have a damn long wait, then the product will just turn to useless powder when you screw it in.

There is a “dry” version: http://www.threadlocking.co.uk/loctite-dri-loc.html

But TBH, I (and JLR) prefer the accepted method of ‘dry thread torque plus given angle of rotation’, to “stretch” the bolt and lock the joint by elastic deformation.

I always use new bolts, especially on brakes, you have no way of knowing how many times they have been used before, is yours and your passengers lives not worth the cost of a few bolts? :whistle:
