If you guys are running 12" wheels or bigger I'd look at nuclear_mini's Camira setup. Better and stronger, IMO- has S track width and NO spacers on the drive flange.
Still uses drum brake uprights (swivel hubs), but the C/V and drive flange is S type (stronger).

agreed - I was looking at my S disks the other day, and comparing with a set of 8.4"s I have, and it'd be pretty cheap to make a set of S disks if you buy a second hand set of 8.4"s - all you need is rotors (buy new anyway, ~$75 each) and calipers.... don't know how much a set of S calipers are...

Cooper 'S' callipers? probably $500 a pair second hand.

Hi all,
Could someone send me a drawing or such with the measurments for the adaptor plate to fit 10 inch wheels please.

Also do you have to fit tapper wheel bearings for this mod or will the old ones be fine

Cheers

thank you so much to Pete and sandra and also david for emailing the pictures.
As to you 998 clubman i didn't ask how to fit them i was just asking for pictures becaus my win xp and norton block about nearly all posted but thanks for the support

SK - Cooper S and Mini 8.4 use different drive flanges, so the S disk will not bolt up to the 8.4 drive flange. Probably an 8.4" disk machined down to 7.5" diameter, with 8.4 drive flanges and S callipers would work. That's what I want to try anyway.

A big thankyou to David and Tyron for the pictures and diagrams for this conversion, they have helped me a lot.

Just one To fit tapper wheel bearings in do you still use the spacer between the inner and outer bearings as I have not seen them before.

Cheers Pete

Yes the tapered rollers come with a spacer in the box. It's ground to thickness, to suit that particular pair of bearings. Don't mix it up with others, or run without it.

drmini ,
Thankyou for that I will go and get some before I finish.
Cheers Pete

Has anybody been using there Honda disks on the track

I am wanting to know which pads you are using and whether you are happy with the way they are performing.

I was planning on using Bendix Ultimate pads....but it turns out to be a typo in their book and they say they have never made them or metal king pads for a Civic.

I will make sure I can buy a decent pad before I go and buy my setup as there is quite a few different calapers used with the DBA191 disks over that 1980 to 1990 period.

Can anybody help

Minimad
