Re: Sumitomo twin-spot Brakes

[Richard Clough]

Best way to get a set of 240K front struts is to buy a whole 240K coupe.  You get the struts with the Sumo twin spots, 5 speed box and an r180 diff , booster and m/cylinder.  Probably a set of 14 inch mag wheels - All bolt in to your 1600.  You can use the dash too if your really keen on a bit of interior surgery. Keep the globes and other electrical bits as spares, the steering column is also a fit with some minor mods.  Recycle the rest.     You can pay as low as $150 - $250 for a bent or rusty 240 Coupe - cheap bits.  The engine also has some useful parts if your into upgrading a 4 cyl. L series, eg the flywheel and clutch are an instant hipower option for an L20B. Some trim hardware is also worth keeping if you have storage space.     Strip the car of bits while its on the trailer you bring it home on, then take the remainder to the recylers - takes a day of your time and you only have the bits you need - no unsightly wrecks laying around - just good 1600 spare parts. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ken Abraham To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 1 January 2001 15:11 PM Subject: Sumitomo twin-spot Brakes Listers, I would like to fit the Sumitomo 2 piston calipers, however 240K struts are getting hard to find.... I have gone through the mail archives but still have a few questions. Do Toyota Coronas have the Sumitomo twin-spots? If so which models? What vented (peugot?) or solid discs can be used with these calipers, I would like to be able to use 200b struts and rotors and then upgrade to vented discs - is this possible?
