Hey guys thanks for taking the time to read.
Im trying to find a good swap for my struts. I want to do brakes as well. Im in the us and need to know what would be good for scca racing? Anything would help?
Ive found 86-90 bluebird struts for 50 bucks on e bay but I need to know if they would fit? And what brakes.

There are some good articles on suspension upgrades here

The most common I would say is Stanza struts - adding Z brakes and adjustable height platforms with camber tops and adj LCAs would be a nice race setup I would think.

Early 80s struts 245mm with solid rotors and calipers lower control arms and radius rods. Minor mods to increase to hole size in the strut tower, turn down the length of the radius rods about an extra 30mm, re position your (flexible)brake line attachment point (in the wheel arch). There isnt much more to it. It's not the be all and end all of brake upgrades but it will get you on the track for not much expense and it's dead easy for a workshop to do. Good luck!
