S13 front brake conversion

Subject: S13 front brake conversion

Hi

I have just completed a brake conversion on my 120y and have a question with regards to disc placement.

Instead of having then slip on over the studs which increases track by 8mm is it possible to have them in the factory position.

I can bore out the rotor hub diameter and slide them onto the hub. Can also drill and tap the rotor to bolt factory style and can add a turned up ring behind the rotor if it needs more thickness for the threads.

I guess all you would then do is add spacers behind the caliper bracket to strut face (thickness of hub flange)

Anyone see an issue with this method?

Only issue i see is possibilty of brake mounts to hit strut, will have to measure it before going ahead
