DJB_Harvey Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Got plenty mate ... If you were local you'd be welcome to borrow . What brakes are you thinking of experimenting with ? I've just fitted Wilwood 6 piston calipers & pads to my Mk2 PI . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 James Cooper is doing a similar exercise with a hub of mine a present. Using Mazda 4-pot calipers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Sorbington Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 I've got a vertical link with stub axle in the shed. One of the caliper bolt threads in the link is a bit mangled.No hub though. I needed that for my car.................I think I'm meant to be somewhere in Dartford tomorrow night if that's any use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 Richard— which Mazda caliper? RX7?Sorbs— really need the hub as well and I'm sure someone will have it as a unit. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Yes RX7 aluminium 4 pot with BMW 525 Vented Discs, needs an adapter to mount the caliper further out and 15" wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 James,I was at James Cooper's yesterday and he discussed this all with me. I think he is hoping to find someone at his work who can do some caliper mounting brackets. He has also located someone who can do some calipers, situated fairly near to me.James Cooper is a busy guy, has 4 projects on the go, these consist of a pi mk3 GT6, a mk1 Pi saloon, mk4 Spittie and mk1 GT6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmmy0_0 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I hope to have sometime this week to place as its to cold to be out in the garage. The BMW 525 Vented Discs seem to be the more costly bits. I will post some pictures as and when I get a chance.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmmy0_0 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Ok so here are the pictures of my first attempt. I am going to redo it another way as I think it will be stronger.Can any one tell me the thickness of the spacer where the strut bolts to the spider, or the thickness of the caliper lug where the bolt goes though?James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
