Zac,
I was trying to work out your problem last night but i put it on
hold to think about it a tad more. AFAIK all 200B struts are the
basically the same, some small variations on the insulators etc.
but nothing serious. The brakes are different between Aus models
77-79 and 79-81, the imported 200B has 253 mm discs with 48 mm
hubs with an Akebono calliper and a very square pad, usually these
are a two door model.
There were two hubs used on Aus models, the early has 48 mm hubs
with 253 mm discs and the later has ~44 mm with ~244 mm discs. I
came across a 510 with the Aus model 200B brakes with the larger
discs refitted with the smaller hubs and the callipers off the 253
mm rotors with the larger pads, sorry i haven't got the DBA
numbers with me here but what this setup looked like was just the
smaller hubs were bolted to the earlier 253 mm disc and the
earlier callipers were also used. I had considered this as an
option if i got knocked back for the track on mine but i was just
legal.
i was a bit puzzled with your earlier post when you said you were
having pad & offset troubles as I thought the callipers were all
interchangeable and i've always been able to do it in the past,
the only problem has been ordering the correct pad. Another
thought is you may have something like C110 GX (253 mm) hubs
and/or discs fitted or some other weirdo combination, you'd be
surprised what PO's come up with, then again maybe you wouldn't.
regards,
