Can 14" wheels be used with this conversion?

Oh ok. But 14" definetly fit?

I have '84 TRX Bluebird ( Bluebird 910?) shortened struts in my 1200 coupe with Camira inserts and Matching bluebird disc brakes and calipers. It has a 120y booster. Can I still keep this booster with this setup?

I'm planning on completely restoring my coupe from the ground up. Converting my A15 to injection and turbocharging.

I want to completely overhaul the suspension. Everyone seems to be in favour of this conversion.

I'm planning on having it as a street car with the occasional track day. What do you think about this conversion together with a coilover and fully adjustable setup?

What in your opinions has proved to be the best setup/combination overall?

If you already have 910 struts, you can fairly easily adapt rx7 four pots with 280mm discs to them. Although I don't think 14" wheels will clear them though.

Yeah I don't think I really need to go that big though.

I've decided to keep my worked A15 and turbo that so I'd like to keep with the "light" theme.

If I were going a bigger engine like a CA or SR then I would have considered this.

I don't really think I need bigger than 14" wheels either.

I'd like to get the best performance out of the smallest and lightest brake/strut combo. Having stopping power I'm never going to use or need is pointless and not practical.

Hi Cheater 5,

I know this is an old thread, you said the adapter plates were 12mm and that you had to space the caliper back toward the struts for the drum hubs you used; was 5mm you needed to space the caliper to center it?

If I understand right that means for drum hubs you'd want an adapter plate that's 17mm thick. I'd guess that aluminium may do the job at that thickness.

Cheers

Here are some pics of the conversion when I did my brakes. I used 12mm steel brackets.

S13 brake conversion on 120Y struts.

I did the conversion on a set of drum hubs a couple of years ago, I sacrificed the original drums to turn them into spacers that locate back on the hub in order to correct the misallignment. it worked out perfect as the drums were designed to fit on those particular hubs.
