sr1600 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 280zx on the left versus common z31, can see larger centerbore due to the mounting face offset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sr1600 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Looks almost like you have 280zx hubs there , same setup as i have done (280zx hub , rx7 calipers and disc) What are the brackets like? Flat between the calipers with about 10mm spacers on on the strut bolts. I found a 15x8 Zero offset wheel is pretty much hard up against the strut (R31 strut) 280zx strut might have a different angle slightly in the stub axle to allow more clearance.

RUNAMUCK Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 If you have some 1200/120Y Disc brake struts, then the S13 conversion is a very very easy swap. As Karl says, I have a fresh batch of plates cut. The S13 uses a 250mm rotor, and doesn't increase the unsprung weight too much. 280zx brakes are great, but the calipers are mad heavy, plus you'll have to swap to sunny (B310) steering arms. This is no biggie, as they'll bolt straight on to your ute lower ball joints. But the Ackerman may (Probably wont) be the same as a 1200. The 280's do support wheels with lots of dish.
