Hi Guys,

i am posting this a little early, but in the near future i am going to be upgrading the brakes on my 240K

The Car currently has a set of upgraded front brakes which i am looking to sell (they were on the shell when i bought it). My car currently has C210 struts, but i do not think this makes a difference (i believe they were only swapped as the struts were height adjustable)

The Calipers are Toyota Hilux with Honda accord discs. They fit under my 14" rims and according to the datsun 1600 guys, are a pretty good upgrade to the 240k ones!

Not sure what they are worth, i guess around $350 for the calipers, pads and rotors? they will have to come off when the upgrade takes place, as i believe you need to remvoe the bearing to get the rotor off (:sleepy: ) so i am not going to attempt to do it myself.

anyone interested?

resurrection time ... if kent is still around? ... hey kent, does the r31/z32 combo require positive offset wheels? i ask because here 510 guys run s12/z32 combo, and that requires positive offset wheels

Hi Matt,

unfortunately i didn't actually get the R31/Z32 combo installed, so i can't really help.. i originally had the hilux/accord combo on the front (with steel wheels, not that it was ever on the road in this setup), which i then replaced with R34 GTT calipers and rotors with custom mounts.

I still have the Z32 N/A calipers here though if anyone wants them.. and i also have 2 BNIB rear caliper mount to suit a DR30 (early models that used a bracket rather than being welded to the arm), which should fit straight up to the rear axle..

Can you put up a few picture of the caliper mount please.

no probs, i will get a pic when i am next over there.

I also have a brand new US 15/16" Master cylinder too..

Do you have a booster to go with that master? also what master/booster combo are you using?

no, i am afraid not.. but it should work with the standard booster..

i am using a 1" DR30 skyline master on mine (apparently pretty rare now).. and i "think" that the booster was a 10" R31 item (but it could have been a DR30 one too..)

My std booster is the size of your fist and looks more like a clutch booster than a brake one. I'll look into getting a DR30 set up like you. Have you tested your brakes out yet?

Can you put up a few picture of the caliper mount please.

khughes did you end up taking a few photos ?

Nigel

Sorry Nigel, i completely forgot.

I will try and get my mate to bring one in tomorrow to work and i will send you some pics.. failing that i will get some on the weekend (i will set a reminder for myself!)

sorry Nigel for the delay.. i finally have the adaptors here now

if you want measurements, let me know

measurements are:

caliper mount (centre of hole to centre of hole) ~114.3mm

hub mount (top to bottom, centre to centre of hole) ~60mm

hub mount (left to right, centre to centre hole) ~83mm

offset (from front to offset caliper mount holes) ~30mm

Thanks,

Just checking your bracket measurements, against my mock up bracket that I made from MDF, also I need the offset distant, see my picture
