Tom, The S13 250mm disk is a good option. If I can find one I will check it out and let you know if it would be viable for a conversion.
Re bolting to a hub. This should not be a problem, see previous email to terry.

But anyway, the 240K stuff would be very similar, I'm sure if the 250mm S13 disc will fit a 240k strut, the 280mm version will fit a C210 strut, so I guess it's just a matter of somebody trying it and seeing what happens, who volunteers to be the guinea pig? :) All the measurements look fine upon inspection, but the S13 disc doesn't bolt to the hub in the same way the 240K does, it's sandwiched in between the hub and wheel like on the R31 rear disc assembly, so you might have to tap threads for these bolts which would be a bit of a pain. Easiest would be to fit 280ZX struts, or modify the spring seat and strut top on R31 struts - Tom -----Original Message----- From: Pooley, Trevor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 11 December 2001 1:16 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Vented disks under 13 inch wheels List, Following on from a thread a few weeks back. I am looking into a conversion for running vented disks under 13 x 7 wheels (hotwires for example). Plan was to use the Sumitomo twin opposed piston calliper on a 240K strut (253mm diameter disk, 48mm hub and 12.7mm thick). I would need to use a spacer in the centre of the calliper to accommodate a vented disk. Question is which disk to use. The R31 hub type vented disk has about the right specs ie 250mm diameter, 48mm hub and 22mm vented, But being hub type is probably a different disk offset. The 240K disk has the hub bolted to it. Ideally a disk with the same offset to the calliper bracket would be the easiest to fit as there would be no change to the calliper bracket. Anything more than a 22mm vent would probably cause the spaced out part of the calliper to fowl on the wheel. In the DBA cataloge the S12 gazzelle look like a good canidate and it might be possible to take the hub to if the height is correct. Does anyne know? The s13 sivia looks like a good match also. The 280zx could work depending if the hub will fit the 240K strut and provide the right offset. Anyone know what would work the best?
