hey guys, done a small amount of work again today lol.

nicked the brakes of the cally. and test fitted them with my wheels, yes they are 13" wheels and the calipers need a tiny amount of sanding.

I still dont see how the calipers dont bolt on like rob said?

As they clearly do, like here?lol

They need adapters made up to fit... A mate of mine is building a Chevette hatch rally car and has the adapters to run 16v front calipers. There was a guy on the Chevette forum making a batch a while back.

where do the adapters go. and what do they adapt?

as the calipers bolt on, the only issue that might arise is when the car is on the ground the bolt for the brake line might hit the lower arm on full lock, not sure yet.

and the discs, i have been informed you use audi 80 discs and redill them?
or as rob said get a set of spacers for the normal discs.

and matt, can you see in the first pic, the disc bolts to the back of the hub, you can see some bolts just about.

it is a weird set up and confussed me first time lol.

and a small update today, i had to grind the calipers a small amount for the ATS classics to fit over and spin, all done and they spin freely. pics to come sometime lol.
