Thanks Andrew, I guess that combination gives excellent grabbers. Where do we source S13 rotors from? Did you use 200B hubs or Silvia?
That reminds me, someone on the list was trying to fit S12 Gazelle front brakes to a 240K strut which is much the same as a 200B - piece of cake on a Bluey but me thinks a bit more than bolt on to a 240K?

I put some sloted s13 sr20 type rotors on the 200b struts with mazda 4 spot calipers.I had to make a bracket to fit them though.They work well. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Terry Rudd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, October 10, 2004 8:33 PM Subject: RE: front brake upgrade? > Most ventilated conversions using 200B struts are high cost component > wise as the calliper bolt spacing is 3.5" Late 180B (same bearings as > 200B etc but 3" calliper mount bolt spacing) is > a better strut to use for Magna/Verada discs with VL turbo callipers > which are also 3" bolt spaced. > > Has anyone on the list done a ventilated upgrade using 200B struts? > > Regards > Terry > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of rclough > Sent: Thursday, 7 October 2004 9:35 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: front brake upgrade? > > > Most 200Bs had Aussi built struts with standard Aussi sized stub axles > to fit the Aussi supplied wheel bearings, which were common to a lot > of other locally built cars.
