The front brakes/struts are from the blue
car. Toby got the R31 rear end
[Terry Rudd] As you know i've seen them on the blue
car, it somehow looks different on the yellow
car
The Holden/Volvo set up was supplied on the
yellow car.
Interesting that u say 144 volvo as I have been
scouring the DBA Catalogue looking for something to fit. (Mine are so warped u
wouldn't believe.) The closest thing I can find is a 740 series Volvo DBA685
FYI the original disc is A =257. B = 59, C&D =21, E = 68
According to the book no 144's had vented
discs....Will DBA supply blanks? or could i specify datto stud
holes??
[Terry
Rudd] No 144's had vented discs? - mine were vented, the DBA catalog must
be wrong or there's another disc on some 144's. It says ATE brakes, i wonder
if that's a brand? DBA will supply blank discs, i've never tried to get
any drilled with another bolt pattern but most brake places can do that.
Anyone with a good drill press can do it
too.
Your discs are similar to:
DBA241 except A 256
and B 49mm
DBA617 except B 49mm
I've searched the catalogue for all of the 68mm
centre hole discs and didn't come up with much, chances are it's off something
imported.

And of course credit for all the clever stuff
goes to Paul Williamson here on the gold coast..

Mick,
Interesting setup. I looked up specs on your combination as I'm not
familiar with Mazda stuff. Clever boy whoever pick that disc, it's perfect
except for 5 holes which are only nuisance value to fix (buy blanks).
The callipers certainly look like Pathfinder and I would guess off
the V6 D21 for no special reason other than the Diesel brakes would not fit
over the discs with new pads on.
On
the rear, Volvo 144 discs with HQ Holden callipers were very common on 1600
rally cars in the 80's, I had that on one of my cars.
What happened to the brakes off the blue car?
regards
Terry
Hi
For some time people have been asking me
about my 4spot brakes and i been promising to post some pics. Well i
finally worked out how to scan a pic that doesn't end up being a 1.5MB
file ie too big for the webpage, and now there are some pics to look
at.
Go to Photos 3 page
I'd be interested in your reactions to some
of my comments on the setup
cheers
Mick
