A bloke in adelaide has done it. He had the rotors turned down to whatever they were to fit under his wheels ( i think) used morris 1100 calipers. And drum brake uprights. Made up mounting plates - no dodgier than your Honda crap let me tell you! 
And there it was. Morrie 1100 brakes on a mini.

Hondas will outstop them easy- they are 9.1", and are ventilated too if you grab Accord ones! BTW the mounting plates are 8mm thick... plenty. Sorry I don't do them any more though....

- Cono from mini craft here in perth makes a kit that allows the brakes to fit.. - Probably not worth it tho. |

Not engineered, and neither are M1100s on a Mini if you succeed in fitting them. |

lots of problems surrounding the fittment of morris 1100 disc assys,,, the upright/swivel hubs won`t work for starters, the ball joints are way too far apart & will leave absolutely no room for suspension travel at all, so different swivel hubs are needed or lift the upper inner control arm mounting point & shorten the strut/Hi-lo assy & raise the tower bump stop part of the subframe. (MAJOR DRAMA) The disc & caliper are too big to fit under 10" wheels & would need turning down & as the good Doc said, there`s many other brake conversions out there that will work far better about the only good thing is that you can actually use the disc rotor with the moke/1275LS brakes (if you had to) in that they`re only a tad smaller in diameterthan the moke/1275LS rotor, so they work, but only just & you`ll need to chip away all the over hanging (unused) brake pad material from time to time just simply not worth the stuff around YUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
