Peter, Looks like I will have to check it out at the wreckers along with the 280zx disks. When I read Hub Type on the DBA catalog I think about Bluebird disk which has a much different offset.
I've been meaning to catch up. Next time your racing locally give me a yell I want to check out the new Blue SR powered car.
